Hard day.Today was a hard one. We said goodbye to our Pepper. She gave us over 16 years of love, fun, and good times. Even in her twilight years she kept on plugging. Her body was failing but still tried to get the ball or Frisbee, even today as we were waiting for the at home vet. We made the decision as a family. Pepper has been a part of my sons' lives for for more than half their life. It was awful, it was good, it was sad, but we have thousands of good memories to get us through. The at home doctor was amazing, so much better than the sterile, unfamiliar vet's office. Her buddies Pondo and Tule were by her side as were all four of us. Best. Dog. Ever.

Sorry, Catsup is wrong on a hot dog even in costume form. Wrong, just wrong.
That's not catsup. It's ketchup.Sorry, Catsup is wrong on a hot dog even in costume form. Wrong, just wrong.
It's not an easy decision and yet it is one of the kindest things we can do -- fast-forward them past any further pain, physical and emotional, or indignities.Today was a hard one. We said goodbye to our Pepper.
Neither should be on a hot dogThat's not catsup. It's ketchup.

I left the garage a touch early and clipped my box before the door was open.

Felt stupid for a few days then remembered I could fix it.
Piece of cake putting it back together. 4 loose pieces .
JB Weld, tape and will fiberglass the inside when glue is dry.
Moving to Taos in 2 days so this was a bit unsettling.....but I win the fight. Ski gear already there....this was for fishing poles, long stuff and itty bits I prefer out of moving van. Stuff happens. Deal with it when the smoke clears.
Thank you. Don't know yet. Will see how season goes and whatever happens to real estate market. Lease now, buy later if prices adjust in our favor.You moving to Taos permanently? Or just for the season?
Lucky you either way.
