A very good boy just got hit by a car. Best case scenario he is about to be three legged. I'm trying not to think about worst case. My son is inconsolable. Pray for him too.
If y'all will excuse, I believe I'm finishing this bottle of whiskey tonight. The last hour and a half has been the toughest I've had in a while. I can't read any more Fauci shit right now. I can't.
Thanks for listening, love you all, needed to vent.
Prayers for your family. Our dogs are part of our family. I'm truly sorry for what you and your son are going through. Please know that you are no way responsible. There is no way we can keep our family members safe at all times. It is impossible. Much love to you
I'm a little responsible. Dog's a Houdini, but I'm the one who stopped trying to contain him. He digs under fences and his neck is bigger than his head so he slips out of collars. He broke both shoulder harnesses we bought. He even broke a shock collar.
But I'm the one who let it slide and said F it. No one else. I'm also the one who just dropped my(finally accrued) cistern money on a dog without a guaranteed outcome. If my family runs out of water, now that will be my fault too.
But yeah, gotta go dad now. Tears away, tough face on. "There is no solution, seek it lovingly"
The fact that you feel remorse for a past decision shows you are a good person. Don't be so hard on yourself. Your family needs you. No matter what happens as long as you put your family first and stick together you can make it through.
God Knows you tried! Don't be too hard on yourself, and trust God to provide for you and your family. He loves you and your family and the doggos too. (and this is from a cat lover. ;)
