We got a call a few days ago that my brother-in-law has cancer. Test results come back today. Doug is one of my favorite people, and he makes my sister (in law, full in heart) Kristi so happy. Please think good thoughts for both of them.
When I first woke up I heard someone nibbling in the dog bowl and for whatever reason I assumed it was Mojo. I about bolted out of bed, worried that Dakota would take exception and snap at him, but then I remembered.
"Free Falling" came on the radio this morning. They played that song at Andy's funeral. I guess it hit me especially hard because we usually see him at Christmastime. Not long ago we got him a copy of The Richest Man in Babylon. I don't know where I'm going with this--it's just in my head.
Now that you're all sad for me, I'll be a bad person and wish you all a Merry Christmas. I hope you had a wonderful Yule. The longest night of the year has passed. It only gets lighter and warmer from here.
