Hey Chris. Sorry to hear about your pup.
It’s never easy. When kids and you are discussing it. I always try to stress that there is a natural cycle of life. Pets enrich our lives in so many ways. And in turn they live many years longer with our care and love. Wild animals life span is usually much less.
So in that perspective the pet and you both benefit from each other in different but special ways.
If you grow up on a farm then your whole experience with animals can be dramatically different.
Take care, Ken

Thanks! It was a rough day yesterday, but having 2 other doggies ready and willing to soak up the extra lovin has helped.

Chill day, just spending time as a family.

Early afternoon I cleaned up my hair and popped out an easy 3 pass with the GC. No worries.

Tonight is homemade carnitas and more family time.

Have a great Saturday all!

Corona Virus Official Day 14:

Nice Sunday morning listening to the short home “service” our main staff put together. Got a special donut delivery from a well loved local gluten free bake shop.

Being a parent is hard right now! We’re fortunate in many ways, even as we experience what we feel to be hardships, but I cannot imagine the lengths those not so fortunate are having to go through (many of my neighbors).

Nice shower n shave. Feels really nice to be totally cleaned up - hair n all! Went for the modern day classic barbershop profile of CBL’s grunged up barbershop finished off by Fine AB’s AS/EDT combo. Killer!

Have a blessed Sunday all!
