I have been out of town this past weekend and then I lost you! I hope this finds you feeling better physically and emotionally. I hope you got all the TLC that you deserve! Please update us on your surgery when you can.
I, too, thought it was very touching that H played those songs for you. It was probably all the things he wanted to say but didn't think that he could say it as well himself. And I do think that he wanted you to stay put when he let the dog out. All good things here Deb.
Try your best not to over-analyze and just go with the flow and enjoy life as best you can.
I am proud of the way that you handled the close encounter with ow. She was probaly so blown away by your proud stance that she nervously (and without thinking) gave you that "hi".
But our first concern will be your health. Please let us know how you are feeling....
