As if the universe heard me crying at night, I woke up to the most beautiful SUNNY day! I swear, just about every day I’ve been here has been cloudy or rainy. I wasn’t sure the sun knew where Brindleton Bay was. I was so excited; I grabbed Shiloh and went for a jog. I hope she’s ready because I intended to spend as much time as possible outside.
We went back to the dog park. Not to run the course, but to just have fun and enjoy the sunshine. Shiloh loves playing with me more, anyway.
There was an older couple at the chess table who I’d seen every time we were at the park. The woman enjoyed trash talking to the man, and it was the most hilarious thing to watch. As I made my way over to them, Mr. No Personal Space from the vet clinic walked in with his cat.
He didn’t say anything or even acknowledge my presence. I guess he’s still mad I didn’t give him the time of day. Whatever. I felt like being a wee bit petty and made him pay attention to me. I asked him questions about his cat…that he brought to a dog park. Who does that? He’s lost so many points, not that he had a chance.
Shiloh made a friend! True, it wasn’t another dog, but it was the cutest thing I’d ever seen. This little girl waddled over to her and followed Shiloh everywhere she went.
Watching them together made me so happy. As cute as the scene was, it also made me sad. I want to have children one day, but they’ll never meet their granddaddy. My mom’s birthday is pretty soon, and if I don’t get a move on, they won’t meet her either. Speaking of, I think we’ll end the day in Sulani. I need to cherish as many moments
as I can
with Mommy before she’s gone too.
