Good Morning All! How are you? I’m okay and Alvin is recovering. Body wise faster than mind. We slept on the main floor last night as I am realizing that carrying him upstairs isn’t great for either of us. I had to carry him not over my shoulder but upright against me and likely not the most comfortable way to be carried for a dog. Is there a comfortable way, I don’t know. Somewhere along the line I think I sprained the muscles or pulled something in the top of my foot, likely from carrying Alvin. He is not a light fireball. So there’s that. Oh well, we shall get through this at some point.

We went for our first little walk a few minutes ago and the wind is cool and strong. Some of the leaves are blowing off the trees. It is funny that the leaves on my tree are similar to the ones on the front door wreath. I was wondering at first.

oh, by the way, I think it works better if we sleep on the main floor, Alvin on his bed and me kn the sofa. I did get 4.5 hours in one stretch.

I also wanted to mention back to my birthday. I had the best visit with my cousin Lorette and her husband Wayne. I loved her goat story and maybe one day I will pass the story on as it still makes me smile. Honestly I need to smile and it is tough at the moment. But as with anything time will pass and hopefully all will be good again.

Man, that wind is strong.

Last night I gave the remaining birthday cake of which I had three. I had eaten so much and it was telling me to share and I did. Cake all gone. I am grateful to everyone who made my 64th Birthday extra special.

Well I need coffee snd it is ready. The aroma divine. Besides I did not retire overnight but that would have been sweet.

Have a great day.

Continuing to live this life with kindness, respect, compassion, patience (working on this one most of all), understanding, love and gratitude.

Always Carol&Alvin
