It's been another tough one. This morning we awoke to find the sun rising on the lifeless body of our beloved Bonnie in the driveway. There really isn't any way to describe the way a moment like that just stops you in your tracks. The plans for the day just didn't matter anymore. Details became irrelevant. The other two dogs seemed to be lifted when we came out. They seemed sure that we could fix her. As events played out, they seemed to get how sad we were and that there was nothing we could do, either. We put her on the bike hill where we've put so many kitties. We wish Clyde could be there, too, but we lost him while our house was under water. Our friends buried him at their house, so he's safe.
Well, like I said, it's been a rough one.
On a stranger note, my daughter has been watching "Touch" for a while on Netflix and I just decided to watch it tonight for the first time. She said I'd really like it. Now, the creepy part... for those who don't remember... The pilot episode took place on March 18. =/
Oh, and one more thing... I made another attempt at the mozzarella cheese today. Gave myself permission to go off on a tangent, I suppose. Made it a little farther this time. I had a lot of curds, but then had to leave for an appointment before it was ready! But the Chef was still home, so he picked up the process. He never really got a cohesive ball of cheese, but it tasted pretty good. It was more like ricotta in texture, so I decided to make a Manicotti. We've never had a better manicotti than this one!! The cheese came out rather sweet, in a way.
Anyway, it certainly ended the day on a brighter note.
