Saturday
It’s been one day without Truffles and today there have been a lot less tears than yesterday. Last evening I was a blubbering mess. I was okay until I saw a little ball of her fur on the floor. It set me onto a downward spiral of misery accompanied by floods of tears.
All normal.
Late this afternoon I was thinking of yesterday’s events. My stomach lurched. What I had feared the most regarding Truffs had come to pass. The realisation crosses through several layers. Eventually it will settle in acceptance and in the meantime life carries on.
I have packed her cat food in a bag along with her medication and I’ll take it down to Tears.
We can keep the kitchen window closed now.
Despite the underlying sadness, today was a good day. Mike and I took a leisurely walk to Echo. We stopped at half built houses, looked, imagined, discussed and continued. The day was overcast with a north wind blowing. Whenever the wind is from the north, the sea at Fish Hoek is flat. This is from Highway Rd
When we got to Echo, we were surprised to find the workers on site.
We’ll take a trip there tomorrow to see what work they did today.
After we left, we decided to walk home via the Stag in Fish Hoek. We stopped there first for breakfast. So altogether it was about 11km. The rest of the day was uneventful. I enjoyed a chat with Stacey.
This evening we watched an episode of the Crown as well as Sanditon, both were very good.
Tomorrow is a new day.
Romans 11:33
Oh, how great are God’s riches and wisdom and knowledge! How impossible it is for us to understand His decisions and His ways!
These are the days.
Keep the smile going.
God bless you.
In His Grip,
