Taking plenty of pictures and videos of him. He's not much for vocalizing so his videos are just moving pictures. I have a short video from when I went to pick him up from the rescue of us taking a walk before getting in the car for the drive home. I still watch that one often. Better days. I'm also doing my best not to neglect the other during all of this. She is generally fairly insistent on snuggles and attention.

A fancy breakfast this morning after a walk in the snow. Glad he gets to experience snow one more time.

Edit: Remembered to get all the pictures and videos uploaded to my cloud account. Whew.

My boy has been doing well, so I scheduled a meeting with my friend. Won't be able to do that for a while, so wanted to do it today. They were very understanding and supportive, having been through this before themselves. They mentioned having so many pictures of their dogs on their phone and few of family. That made me feel better. All of it made me feel better, except the coffee and pastry. Bleh. Friend said they could take my other dog for a few days if I needed it. Was very nice to have some support like that.

Now, a few hours later, I'm starting to feel sad. Every time I meet with my friend I feel amazing during the get together and then feel down later. Not sure if it's a "happiness hangover" or waiting for the other shoe to drop. Feeling better always make my anxiety worse, which is annoying. Hard to get more than one day of better feeling.

Anyway, my boy has been doing pretty good. We had a walk when I got home and he decided he didn't want to stop and rest in the spot I picked out for him. He wanted to keep going. Happy to have him act normally.

Got some chicken breast cooked, so they will have a good meal tonight.

Sorry, this wasn't meant to be "journal-ish."

After putting my cat down I saw a video from Lap of love about the "process" well it was very detailed and they talked about the roller coaster period. For me that was two years. But it is basically the period where the pet is ok for a while and then not... and I feel it is the time you need to come to terms with reality.

I was lucky this time was during the pandemic so I got to stay with him more than I might have otherwise.
