It's been awhile

Time does seem to fly whether you're having fun or not! The last few months have been consumed by my work. Trying to get two new software programs aligned and working properly is a chore which leaves me little time or energy to think about blogging.

We are making progress on the additions! I actually have 3 walls up on the mudroom and we are now laying out the final design for the living area. The biggest decision is how many windows do we want :)

The last couple of weeks have been trying. I lost my best buddy, Jazz my border collie, to cancer. It was sudden and unexpected. I can't believe he's gone.

It's been 2 weeks today and tomorrow would have been his 11th birthday. I wrote this for him...


Last night you came to visit me
You laid your head upon my knee
You poked my hand the way you knew
Would get an extra scratch for you
I wrapped my arms around your neck
I breathed deep of your doggie scent
My tears rained down upon your head
I softly spoke your name
Your deep brown eyes gazed up at me
“You called and so I came
I know you cry these tears for me
But this I know is true
We have a bond that will not break
I always walk with you
If you whisper, I will hear
And we will walk together
Through snow filled fields and leafy trails
Through sun or stormy weather”
I woke and still I felt you near
My face - Still wet with tears
But in my heart I felt such joy
I feel you near, my handsome boy.


Once things have settled down at work, I hope to blog a bit more.

but for now...that's all there is!
