dog named leuk

Cars and trucks halted on the street, pedestrians frozen mid-stride, the birds, so constantly chattering, silenced in anticipation of what was about to happen... "Leukemia", David said, his head already buried in my shoulder. "They think it’s leukemia..." and suddenly without warning our world collapsed. Buildings imploded into heaps of brick and drywall and the sky, once so blue and full of hope, hit the ground with such force that it shattered into a billion little pieces.

Last minutes

I think this is really well done. I cried though.

Thanks to everyone that loves their dog enough to show it.

Dancing dog

Leuk has a long way to go...
He would look pretty in a skirt though.

Helleborus aka Lenten Rose

We saw the sun today. And ripped appart the kitchen. Or further ripped apart the kitchen anyway. We now have a fridge in the dining room, food in tupperware boxes scattered throughout the house and cupboards outside under tarps. If all goes well, we'll install our new tile floor next week. So much for a weekend of relaxation. But having a functional kitchen sounds pretty nice. I think we pulled the wall down and started the kitchen reno over a year ago... so it's about time. It only took us about 5 months to choose the tile, so it seems a bit crazy to think that we can actually install the tile in a few days. We'll see.

Making a bit of progress on the cherry blossoms. I found one that had 'hatched' I think our tree is struggling. David thinks it's just hidden from the morning sun. He's the tree expert...

Surf, spring and Leuk's crow friend

David catches a friendly wave.

My stomach stretches. And my feet disappear.

Leuk's beach buddy. The crow seemed to enjoy the game of chase.

Waiting for spring. Patience.
