The nice neighbor lady I’ve spoken about in the blog before passed away a few hours before I posted this page. I wasn’t close with her, but she was a good neighbor and I looked after her dog until she finally became our dog, I guess officially forever, tonight. I don’t know why exactly, but it made me very sad even though I barely interacted with her in the nearly 20 years I knew her. Like, I somehow feel like I shouldn’t be allowed to be sad, but I am. She was a fixture in the background of my life for a long time. Her husband was still alive when I moved here. I remember her little dog getting run over and just various things. We took in Precious when she couldn’t take care of her by herself anymore. She’s pretty acclimated to us now. I dunno. I can’t dent that it makes me a lot more unhappy than I feel like I have a right to. It would be really unfortunate is a bad neighbor moved into her house. We’ve had a nice long run of having good neighbors and the value of a good neighbor should never be discounted.

Anyway, I hope you return to me on Friday. Have a a good time in the interim.
