Sunday, March 27

I had thought about trying to go to the music jam yesterday morning but getting Cowboy up and out the door on time is such a struggle.  It just didn't happen.   We never did get him shaved.

I was thinking about how many little clues occurred over the last year and a half that I either didn't get concerned about or that the Dr. assured was nothing to worry about.  I am sure many times these things happen and then don't end up being anything so I try to factor that in but I have ended up feeling like I should have been paying more attention or made more noise with the Dr.  Despite that I know it would not have made any difference.  There were times I felt upset with Cowboy and in retrospect it wasn't really him but the disease affecting his behavoir.

Today has been a nice day.  I love Sundays.  I love the Sunday paper, the late breakfast, the quiet.  It was cool today so have not been out of the house except to pick up the paper.

I spent some time on the internet trying to check out this Aid and Attendance pension stuff.  On the surface it looks like we have too many assets to qualify.  I don't know why that should be a factor.  This should be about taking care of our veterans.  But the part of me that is a taxpayer is more inclined to think it is a good approach.  Interestingly, I also learned that any veteran with any kind of rating can get free eyeglasses.  Who knew?  I wonder how many hundreds/thousands of dollars that represents for us over the past 30 years.  Since we are pretty comfortable I guess I shouldn't concern myself with it. 

Time to fix dinner.
