Anxious days.

Daisy went to the vet on the first of March. Her entire family waited in anxiety for her return home after he dental extraction of an infected tooth. We never truly understood the depth of our bond with her and how much the presence of such a small being can affect the existence of so many people until she was absent from our lives for a few brief hours.

It was a relief beyond words to know she was safely home, and would be well again. The most touching thing was the clarity of her affection for Grandma May, who she has decided going to visit is a great treat, something she made abundently clear when she was traumatized that we were not at Grandma's house and not going to let her out of the truck, but instead were in the parking lot of WalMart and had simply said we were going to Grandma's later. She understood the intent of the conversation and who it meant she would be going to see, but she did not understand the words well enough to perceive when. Oh the cleverness of shoes.

My family be an odd seeming one to all of you who visit this scripted place, but it's a brightly colored one that I would not trade for anything in this world. Instead I wish some of it were still here to enjoy the life we carry on with even though they have passed. Speaking of loved ones never passing, The murals in the kitchen are finished for now, and Spring is threatening to finally take hold.

The Oscar party at the Webbs was as wonderful as ever.

It leaves one to ask why then, would Casey want to go all the way to the Arctic to go Clubbing? I mean really if you don't like a nice purple frock, don't buy it.
