December 1st....Feeling Happy..

Something amazing happens when you're in love and don't give

 a damn about what day it is anymore...

December 1st you know Christmas is just around the corner.  Yesterday we went driving around 

the neighborhood in the evening because I wanted to see the houses all beautifully lit up.  It is still 

a little early for most people to have their Christmas lights out, but quite a few were already 

out.  I will never tire of saying that this is the most wonderful time of the year.

On the first day of Christmas my true love sent to me:
A Partridge in a Pear Tree

Christmas is a time one should be surrounded by family.  Arvid's family is in Norway and mine 

is spread out all over the US.  Makes it difficult for all of us to be together.  Even so there

 is that closeness and special bond families share that is always in our hearts.

Though far apart we are all always close in our hearts and thoughts.

A another week begins and as Mondays go there is always something unexpected

waiting to happen.  Trust me it will, but in a way both Arvid and I are always ready for it.

Brutus had 4 days without medicines.  Little dude was happy as can be.  Yesterday I started him

 back on his antibiotics.  How he knows this was going to happen is a mystery I will never 

be able to solve.  One the days he was not having medicines he was out and running, but

 all of a sudden he is back to hiding and threading very cautiously when he sees me.  

I feel awful but there is nothing I can do but give him his medicines. 

 Soon it will be back to him not eating nor drinking.  Already I'm stressed and Arvid is probably 

right when he says that Brutus senses my moods.  As usual Arvid is Brutus' saviour

 and I am the bad guy.  At least he feels safe tucked in between Arvid's legs. 

 Every night at he same hour Brutus jumps up and gets comfy.

Good morning everyone.  Soon it will be Christmas day.

If you want a happy ending,
 it just depends on where you close the book...
