We made it through the night.. it was touch and go.. at one point our frenchie farted and it was so sweet I had to give our eldest dog an extra shot of insulin…

It was also scattered thunderstorms yesterday but there was a 30 minute window where I thought, alright, let’s do it, let’s go for a w-a-l-k, put my utility belt on, strapped them all to me. 3 minutes in, crack of thunder and torrential rain. We all came home soaked smelling like wet dog. Couldn’t be arsed bathing them, so that’s what my bed smells like now. Mostly my side, turns out without the wifey they are happy to sleep on my side.

The internet has been out for 3 days now, off and on with the provider troubleshooting. The dishwasher made some close encounter of the third kind beeping noises in the middle of the night, not sure what that’s about. And somehow my work has me dialling into a meeting today on my time off..

All in all, 2/10, not letting the wife leave the house without us again.

Haven't seen him for two days. Always worries me a bit, i'm sure he'll show up again though.

Almost a good boy 😆

Let us know when he does, so I can stop worrying too

I'm currently helping my nephew with the passing of his dog. He's under 30, single, and adopted the whole John Wick loner with a dog persona.

Earlier this month, the dog, Itadori, had to go to the emergency room. Two nights ago, they had to cremate the dog. My nephew, a 6'2" meathead who lives a big eat, sleep, gym, work routine, has been crying for the past few days.

His biggest regret has been that he wished he took more photos. For five years, he has only 3 of them. And one came from me.

All I can say to people is - take photos of your pets.
