Downtime

Today I was talking with a coworker who is also dealing with the decline of an elderly dog. The conversation made us both sad. At one point she said, "But isn't this the goal? For them to make it this far?"

Yeah, it is. It's sad to lose them no matter how or when they go, but it is nice to be able to let them grow old with us.

And I wonder why I'm not right this week, and why I need alone time. Not alone. Alone with Riley.
