After the tough year we had in 2013, we figured we would
catch a break in 2014. Safe assumption,
don’t you think? Well, we were wrong.
The first 8 days of 2014 dealt us a few major blows. First of all, Mommy has been sick since the
beginning of the year. We thought she
might have been a bit run down, but when the fevers and body aches kicked in
after two days, we knew it was the flu (H1N1).
I made sure she stayed well hydrated and rested a lot. I was very quiet and watched over her, just
like Rudy would have. Her fever finally
broke and she is on the mend – weaker though.
She doesn’t remember much about the time that passed.
The second bad thing was something called a polar
vortex. Polar air, which means really
cold air, has covered the whole United States.
It was minus 44 degrees in my back yard.
Bad weather means a lot to me because it cuts into my Frisbee and fun
time outside. I think this weather has
put everyone in a bad mood.
How is that for the start of a new year? Not looking good, is it?
In the meantime, we still have plenty of things to keep us
busy. Daddy and Mommy have doctor
appointments and Rudy’s anniversary is coming up on January 30th. Daddy should be starting school again soon
and he’s been reading more at church. We
are also working hard on our new web site.
We have a new illustrator joining us for our project due out
this Spring! We are very excited! We still hold out hope for a better year in
2014. Fingers and toes are crossed!
Love,
Boomer! The Mellow Yellow Lab
