Three Score and Ten [Now Thirteen

Little Dog

I know I should be writing more, The desire is strong, but the pen is weak. What a week we have had. We just got our biggest snow fall of the season. It was a dry cold snow that shoveled nice against the house foundation. It will help fight against the big cold coming our way tomorrow. I hope it is the last deep deep freeze of this season. Then we had toilet trouble, and it ran over going all the way to the basement. Our dining room ceiling took another hit. That toilet and drain and ceiling are on our spring repairs to do list for spring. but the absolute worst thing to happen is our Little Cairn Terrier Dog has been diagnosed with cists, throughout his liver. He is doing okay at this time, but his future is dim. He is such a good dog and provides the wife and me with therapy and walking exercise. We will work with him as long as he has some quality life. The wife will be devastated when he passes. The Little dog has taught us to trust. He trusts in us as we need to trust in God. I will write of him again many times.
One of the daughters and grandson were going to visit yesterday but had to cancel due to bad roads and their family being sick with colds. The grandson wants to talk about a school project report he is dealing with. They live about two hours away, so it is a trip. They are going to try again this coming weekend. I love visiting with the grandsons. He is 10 and lives in this own world, sharp as a tack but introverted. I wonder where that came from.
I have an internet auction going off shortly so I will stop for now.... The Auction is over for me. I managed to win only one lot. I guess I value a dollar more than the young pups do. They will learn value the hard way. It is late and the wife and I are tired. There was a lot of snow shoveling today. It is time to turn in. I hope you and Yours have a Blessed Evening
