New news

Just hanging around this fine Sunday and wanting to share my new stuff!.... Here it is:

Updates....from Dubai

OK....so I've watched the videos.  We're sad that we missed Darin and Andreas wedding and of course also sad about losing little mosmo.  I'm not gonna lie, I bawled like a little baby when I watched it.  I remember having to sleep with her the first night cuz all she did was cry cry cry.  I also remember when we were trying to paper train her and one day I opened the newspaper on the floor and around came Cosmo and peed on the newspaper I was reading!  Funny little critter!

Things around here have been busy.  Since coming home from Xmas we've done a few things: swimming with the dolphins, gone camping in the desert, comedy clubs, and the list goes on.

Gav is gone now for 2 weeks.  Yesterday he was going to drop by and see the tennants....I wonder how that went.  He has a weeklong conference in Austin so he went a few days early to do a bit of running around and catching up.  After his conference he will fly to Costa Rica to see his parents for a week.  A couple weeks ago Robert was stung by a sting ray.  The stinger went right thru his boot and got him in the ankle.  He said it was the most pain he's ever been in.  They went to the doctor and he had to get 5 shots (maybe anti venom kinda stuff - I'm not really sure) in the wound and 2 more in the butt.  This all happened around the time they had to cross the border to renew their visas.  So they drove to Panama and had to stay for 72 hours to get their new visa and during that time it got infected.  Seems like its clearing up now.  I'm sure this injury won't keep him away from fishing though.  Every time we skype he has new fishing stories.

Ruth will be coming here with a friend at the end of March. They'll be here for Gavs birthday so that will be nice for him.

Thats about all I know for now....so here are a few pics.

All Dogs go to Heaven

Sorry... I know it is a sad thing to watch the video.  If I need to cry I will watch it too.  I hope it is a nice way for you to remember her.

I don't remember what the movie "All Dogs go to Heaven" is really about but it really is true.  Sometimes we forget to honor them for the innocent little beings they are.  Without even trying they are great teachers to us and that is what Cosmo was, and still is.  Among many other things, they teach us unconditional love.  What more could we ask for??...

As you remember how much joy Cosmo brought to you, I hope one day, when you are ready, you will welcome another "teacher" into your life.

Cosmo

Thanks Lori. We so miss our little doggie. More important than being our Pet, Cosmo was our little buddy, she was our entertainer. She was always there to welcome us home, she was our bedtime monitor, our morning alarm. Cosmo was an unknown therapist. She provided Dad with a "job". She gave him a reason to get going in the mornings. Fortunate and unfortunate at the same time. Unfortunate she became ill, but fortunate her illness didn't change her. Although ill at Christmas you all got to see her one last time. No amount of trying to feed or medicate Cosmo was going to work. The final word for our pooch was cancer. Sad as it was, we had to let her go..... Cosmo is gone from our hearing, gone from our touch, but her presence will always be felt....Pet Heaven is now her home. Thanks for thinking of how much Cosmo touched our lives and making this tribute. By the way, anytime I want to cry, I just have to watch it again. (like that's a surprise).

Tribute to Cosmo

To Mom & Dad,

Sorry... it's a sad one... But I hope you like it.
