Oh, brenda, too much!
But I understand. You gave up everything you had to find me. And you found me broken. It's hard for you.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I am dog park bound right now, which is kind of my sanity saver anymore.
I did drag myself out on Sunday to volunteer for an adoption event, and got to hang out with this guy, too.

Muddling through sucks. I wish it were easier.
I kind of wish I were staying overnight in the hospital with grace because then I wouldn't have to go to work tomorrow.

Yeah, brenda, that's a lot. But you are smart and competent and this one past project does not define you. You should not feel pressured into contributing to your dad/brother problem if it's not something you're comfortable doing. And I'm sorry about the cat. I hope it's not dying.
Re: turtlenecks, I cannot stand things on my neck. And yet? I had five, count them, five identical black turtlenecks in my closet when I went to do the flylady purge. I think they're leftover from my black jeans/turtleneck theater days? And I hung onto them because they're the closest thing I still have to appropriate office wear these days. But seriously, I don't need five. I think I kept two, plus the keyhole Orvis shirt, which I still love.

He's only 29 pounds! He's like a full size pitt that someone squooshed. He got at least three good applications and I'm sure he'll have his home soon. It's an awesome thing to be part of.

I love turtlenecks! I cannot wait for us to get to turtleneck weather. I wore a wool sweater today and it was raining when we got to the hospital, but still not quite turtleneck weather. I still have turtlenecks I didn't put away in the spring in my closet.

Oh Brenda, that is a lot on you.
Doggie is adorable.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
OMG, it's been turtleneck weather all year for me.
