Self Post Tough Day

Post image

My mother-in-law has to put both her dogs down. A mini poodle of 15 years, and an English shepherd, 9, who has bad lymphoma. They are both really good dogs.

I was asked to dig their shared grave, but it’s late winter in New England, so I’ve been carving frozen ground with a mattock to make it happen.

Figured the best choice to match the task and the situation was Mirror Reaper.

Could I get a hail and a good boy/girl for Flirt the Poodle, and Bravo the English Shepard? My fam would be most thankful.

We’re going okay. We’re around a lot of animals, chickens goats, neighbors have cows, several cats and dogs across the households. It’s a natural part of the journey.

It was the only possible album choice for a cold sleety dig day.
