Hubby left yesterday and it was a hard day. Lonely. Isolated. Duke was pouting so he spent the day in a front room watching for hubby to come home. I felt better once I knew he arrived to VA without incident. He has to stay in another hotel because of the protests -- no kitchen, no inside parking, no close food options. I packed him a huge cooler for the week. Beginning of a new normal for us.
I have the added fun of my monthly this week. Any plans to meet-up and walk are on hold. No bathrooms are the real deal during Perry. I'm going to see my aunt next week (weather permitting) and I'll need some face-to-face interaction in a big way.
My solo plans today are to long walk Duke and take him to a park this afternoon. It's the coolest day of the week so maybe we can make it happen. Yesterday was too warm in the afternoon.
The BBQ Saturday was nice -- bittersweet as it was hubby's last day and the kid's original wedding day. Having perfect weather was a little kick in the butt -- we hoped for lousy weather to give ANY little spin on the postponement. The cake and cookies were AMAZING. This bakery knocks it out of the park.

We're meeting Rusty on Saturday (who we'll rename Monti -- after a neighborhood in Rome, if we adopt him). He's starting to fluff out again. If the dogs seem comfortable, we'll probably keep him on Saturday and ask for a couple day trial -- just in case. He's on some medications so it'll depend if she brings them and how quickly we need to refill if we can do an immediate adoption. It takes time to get a vet appointment these days. He's still clearing his cough, but his lungs are clear.

| OMG -- he's adorable!! |
I'll do more Enneagram work this week and start chatting about it soon. I have a few other things to "report" too.
June is here. The big 5-0 birthday month. Trying to salvage what I can and turn this year around. Can it be done? Who knows, but I'll keep pushing.
Stay well. Later gators.
