Reflections and Buddy.
I’ve been very behind in blog writing. Chalk it up to a combination of work, trying to finish a quilt in time to make a deadline, the end of December frantic clean, and long reflections on the past year and decade.
Work: well, it’s work. It’s always good that work continues to come in, especially in these times when people are struggling. I am aware that I’m fortunate in that regard. I’m also aware that things can change on a dime. The quilt: I finished it, and that entry is in the mail. The cleaning: Well, that’s me operating under the delusion that me cleaning the house will bring some order as I enter into the new year (as if). Then we come to reflections. As I mentioned a few posts down, I’ve been going through my journals, falling into that flood of memories mode.
And, to keep things light, while working in the family room one evening, I got up to get something to drink. When I returned, our dog Buddy decided to take my place. It reminded me of that old saying, “When you’re on the Internet, no one knows you’re a dog.”

Here’s Buddy!

How could I resist.

Yes, I got carried away. He’s such a cutie!

He is soooo cute. What a sweet face. Is he part german shepherd?

He is! My husband got him from a shelter. He was very underweight, less than half of his present body weight. We’re told he’s got quite a mix — German Shepperd, Rotty, German Short Hair Pointer, and Chow. He has the best disposition imaginable in a dog. I didn’t want him at first (our first dog had passed and I was still missing him), but it didn’t take long for me to totally love him. We’ve had him about 6 years or so.

:) He’s under my desk most of the time anyway. My desk is a large L-shape. Sometimes he walks under my desk, and I suddenly have Buddy head on my lap wanting his neck rubbed.
