Spot, an amazing dog.

As I sit here and type this, my awesome dog of close to 11 years Spot, is lying out on our porch dying. It is sad for us all, but we also are very happy to see him getting out of pain. Spot was found to have lymphoma cancer. He has taken it all very well and up until the last few days, has done well for the most part getting around on his own. Today, mom had to get up the steps, and a little while ago he got up, to the door, and back down and could make it back to his house. He is now in the comfort of blankets, and thank God it isn't really cold out there tonight.

As I reflect on all the great times Spot has given us I also think to my cousins dog Buffet that was put down a few weeks ago. So there is a lot of sadness as our animals in our families are getting old and dying. Then I also think about the young, our cat Chloe, my aunts dog Jackson, etc. They are all in there prime and we have many years to enjoy them. Well friends, that's enough for now, but tomorrow looks to be an awesome day, my boyfriend Ryan is coming to church with me, then hanging out with me the rest of the day as we do fun stuff here at the Haynes homestead and then go to a friends house for a Superbowl party.
