May. 16th, 2026 08:17 pmWhen a lot of stuff happens I usually work through it by talking about it or writing about it, which uses energy, which these days I no longer have if a bunch of stuff has happened. I guess any active working through something is gonna use energy though. I just have much less total living ability in a day, and in my foreseeable lifetime; if I make it to 80 it will have been much less life than a previous 80 years would be.
Long story short, puppy arrival is delayed a day, I can still kind of pull miracles together if I really really need to and accept the consequences will be things like my throat swelling closed and my muscles leaving me lying on my back like a turtle flipped on its back shell (funny if I've just eaten and taken out the dog, less funny if the dog needs to go out or I need to drive), and I remain conflicted about Tucker where I really value the hard things he's willing to do but also worry that pushing through with stoicism is bad for him and I don't want him to do it on my account if it damages him. But we did both survive yesterday, as did the tornjak pup.
He appears to be significantly more beautiful than I thought, and possibly more teenager-looking than I thought. He has a lot of growing to do! I got Solly at a year and I know she grew a bunch, he's seven months and is a skinny rangy thing with a really beautiful head. At least so say the pictures.
I'm thinking Robson, as in Mt Robson, which looks even more spectacular than the spectacular photos of it. Driving up that highway it really is a wonder of the world, but Rico may stick from his most recent owners. We'll see.
More, no doubt, later.
