When It Rains It Pours

Walt has had a couple of pretty good days.  He even walked around Walmart with me for a few minutes today.  Yesterday was sad.  Amanda came with the kids and helped me clean house getting ready for company coming tomorrow.  I had had some sleepless nights because we were having some discussions about whether it was time to have our sweet little 15 year old yorkie put to sleep.  It was time.  She suffered with diabetes and was blind and deaf.  I just didn't want to see her suffer and it was taking a lot of time for her care.  I took her to the vet and they were really very kind and caring.  It was the right decision, but that doesn't make it any easier.  We will have very fond memories of the dog that actually nursed 3 kittens and shared her last meal with one of them.  Todie was a good dog.
We have had so many well wishes from friends and family.  Thanks to all for the cards, the visits, the phone calls.  It  helps Walt deal with all the hard stuff I am putting him through.  Poor guy had green beans and a mock coleslaw for dinner.  But..........I am making him peach ice cream for a treat.  Peaches and almond milk in the blender.
Again, thank you all for the prayers.  Our friend Judy told us she prays for us to have to have the peace of mind "than excels all thought".  What could be better than that.
