  • We’re pretty settled back into our routine now that my wife has been out of her partial hospitalization program. Thankfully the DBT she did there is actually helping and she’s realizing her stress tolerance is lower than other people’s and letting me help more. The almost 3 year old doesn’t listen to her as much as me though and has much more frequent and intense tantrums. I hope that will decrease over time as she learns her mom isn’t as volatile.

    We tried to do the zoo yesterday. Overall we had a good time but it was a waste of money, barely saw any animals cause the toddler was lollygagging and ended up melting down from being tired. Had to carry her out of there kicking and screaming for a solid 10 minutes, always fun. Think we’ll wait till they’re both older before we do that again, we’ve been a few times and it usually goes like that. Plus I’m not the biggest fan of zoos anyway, at least ours does a lot of legit conservation work.


  • You can really see how loved he was in those pictures. I’m sure he had 4 good years because of you and I’m sure he knew he was loved. I’m so sorry for your loss and know how hard it is.

    I lost my dog of 14 years just a few weeks ago. He apparently had cancer and was hiding it until he couldn’t. It was very sudden and still very painful. I’m trying to find a good picture for his urn but it’s still too hard. I think I’m going to write him a letter to process my feelings, sort of like you’ve done here. My condolences again.
