My dear sweet Summer passed away during the day yesterday. She was not feeling good when I went to work yesterday and she passed during the day. On Sunday I groomed her and took her for the longest walk she had been on for some time.
Summer was kind and sweet to everyone, even cats. Most of all she was kind to me. She was what a rescue dog should be.
She was loved and gave love.
You are missed old girl.

Well Summer is in for quite a day. Eye surgery and the tracheal wash. As I said yesterday the test hopefully will show bronchitis, not cancer. Whatever it is hopefully we can find a way to make her cough go away and her heavy breathing/panting less labored.
Happy Mother's Day to the women of the world. You are the foundation that keeps the world from coming apart on a daily basis with your care, comfort and nurturing.
So I went to an auction yesterday. Conveniently it was right around the corner from my house. I ended up buying a Greek vase, $10, an old globe for $7.50, an old mason jar with the oil spout to put oil in your car for $5, a present for dad and a large oriental rug for $50. The rug is huge. Maybe too big for the living room and may go in the dining room. Lots of good stuff. I limited my spending very well. Some people spent thousands of dollars.
Across the street from them that neighbor was holding his twice yearly book sale. Bought a large book of pictures from the1970's with pictures of New York subway cars with all kinds of cool graffiti, $3. A travel book buy a woman who traveled Europe as a photographer after she left college,$1 and a pop art picture book, $1.
My leg is really bad today, very very tight. I am wondering if I did something and did not know it at the time.
Clean house this morning and go for a little ride today. I'll bring Summer along as her Mother's Day gift.
A U.S. House panel voted to cut
spending on food stamps, health insurance and other aid for the
poor to avoid planned cuts in defense spending.I guess these fuckers never had a mother.
