A New Year begins
I just got back from Victoria tonight and it feels a bit weird to be home. Very quiet, no Matt, Baxter or our fun neighbours. Matt had to stay in BC with the dog until pets are allowed to fly again. The airlines blocked pets from flights starting Dec.16 - Jan.6 so Matt will return to Toronto on Saturday with Baxter.
Baxter is growing like a weed! Every time we take him out of his crate he seems so much bigger! He can now sit, shake a paw, and lay down on command. Not bad for a 3 months old jet setter.
I'm such a procrastinator! I haven't even unpacked yet and here I am updating my blog. Oh well at least I'm doing what I said I would, making more entries on my blog. Hee hee.
The time at home in Victoria was different then expected. It's been about 8 years I guess since Matt and I have been home to celebrate Christmas. We were in Victoria from the 22nd on and got a chance to really hang out with my family and a few friends. My mom is caring for Rick who is dying of cancer so you can imagine how different it was to be home this Christmas. He doesn't have much time left in fact he might not make it to the end of the month. What can I say...she is an amazing women. Unfortunately I found my self actually starting to feel left out and then I realized that I was being completely selffish. How unfair was it for me to want more of my mom's time when she was caring for this man dying of cancer. What a horrible disease. I'm at a loss of words right now but just so thankful for my health, husband, family and friends.
Here's to a year full of good health, happiness and following dreams.
Until next time.
