The King Of Limps

It hasn’t been the best of days today. I dreamt about Mads. My old goat friend. In the dream I was hugging him and telling him how much I miss him. And then slowly I was pulled out of the dream and I was back in my bed, hugging my pillow and crying and telling someone who wasn’t there that I miss him. He was more than just a goat to me.

It’s never nice to lose friends. Karma kills.

It’s almost March now. I have two doctor visits and a foot therapy appointment. And a birthday. In the first two weeks. I thought I had an eye doctor visit too, but turns out that’s in April. But there will be stuff to do. Right now I am just treading water.

The sun sneaks in every now and then, but it’s very cold. And there is still snow outside. But March is spring, so I’m sure the snow will be gone by Tuesday. Yup. Then maybe my heating bill can drop back down to normal levels. Turn, turn, turn. For every season there’s a mixed metaphor.

    *hugs* Mads knew that you – bringer of raisins and scratches – loved him very much. He had a wonderful goat life, and you helped make it so :)

    We think of Mads every so often as well. He was a “one of a kind” goat. We won’t forget about him.
