Due to a pet emergency I wasn’t able to make it to my kickball game. Unfortunately, one of our beloved pets had to be euthanized. It was a very sad day. W and I held each other and cried as we stayed with him until the end. He will be missed greatly. cry

W will be out of town 4 nights for work. She wasn’t looking forward to going, as it will only make it more difficult for her to meet the deadlines on the projects she is responsible for. Probably the best thing to help her get over our loss though.

I told her the remaining pets and I would miss her while she is gone, as I gave her a head and shoulders massage last night. She thanked me afterwards. This morning I packed some vitamins for her, because I knew it would be a struggle for her to eat as well as we do at home, while away. Our homemade morning protein/fiber/fruit shakes will be missed the most.

W and I will be in contact via email, and she returns on Friday. We then do our 5k run together Saturday morning.

I will be busy caring for our pets, running the household, doing a few projects, and of course going to work 8 hours a day. As always, I will make time for physical training, and some reading. It’s funny how I feel like I continue to grow, even though my pants are still the same size. grin
