Reminder of Grandma, originally uploaded by wind_dancer.
I have been spending a lot of time in my cottage, alone with my injured dog, Dakota, nursing her back to health. I am hoping that in doing so, we can avoid yet a third surgery. It has been only 5 days since her second surgery, but she brightens a little more each day.
In my cottage is this print hanging on the wall. It is old and faded, in a cheap frame, and not worth much to anyone but me. It was my grandmother’s and hung in her living room. I love this print, and love this photo of it.
During the last 5 days of confinement, I have come to appreciate this one-room cottage even more.
I’ve been thinking of you and Dakota alot, sending healing thoughts. Sounds like you two take good care of each other. You are both independant spirits, and so it must be hard for her to give over her care to you. But it sounds like she’s being a good patient, and this time together will make your bonds even stronger. Take care of yourselves.
