A Young Wife’s Tale

We are home in Texas! It was slow going, driving a moving pulling a trailer with our car on top. David drove the entire trip. I’m thankful and surprised his psoriatic arthritis didn’t flare. It is wonderful being surrounded by our family, friends, and a nice roadway system. The streets and highways are well paved [...]

*I have never experienced the loss of a child, but this post was just so beautiful, I had to share. Check out Raising Arrows Is There Anything Worse Than This?

*One night last week, David says I yelled in my sleep, “I will not let my best friend die for my best activity!” I have no idea what I was dreaming about. David said he is pleased that even in my dreams I’m making good moral choices.

The last time we took Henry to the vet, I made David go with us. Henry has been so awful in the car that I won’t go anywhere with Henry unless David is there, too. Now that we have the kennel, I don’t have to leave Henry in the car while I’m grocery shopping.

Greetings from Virginia! David is in training this week, and Henry and I have camped out at the hotel. I had planned to do a lot of writing while David was in class each day, but the motherboard in David’s laptop died. Our iPhones make it possible for us to check email, and things like that, but writing is frustratingly slow on a phone.

Mostly I’ve been reading and knitting. I’m perfectly happy being stuck in a hotel room all day. It’s not much different from being stuck in our apartment all day, except I have less work to do.

Our hotel room has a kitchenette, and I’ve done a good bit of cooking trying to keep David gluten free and dairy free. He has eaten out a few times, and had dairy, but he seems to be okay. In fact, he’s walked Henry a lot on this trip.
