Short and to the point.

The most difficult thing about having dogs is being with them while they face the end. Bug is not doing so well and she has been moved into the house to make what is left of her life a bit easier. She has gone downhill fast, but she is not ready to give up just yet. She sleeps a lot, but will still give small wags of her tail when she is alert and she can, most days, manage the outside steps on her own; both up and down. I'm not ready to eulogise her yet, but I don't expect a miracle, either. Here are a few pictures of her, since being moved into the house.

This is how Bug spends much of her day now; sleeping on the couch.

Hunter and Bug. They've been pretty good friends for a while and even moreso now that Hunter feeds her treats almost non-stop.

On a happier note, one of our two living room window replacements has been completed. We didn't take a lot of pictures of the job, but those that we did follow.

Our boring, non-sun-letting-in, 4 square foot window.

The preparations for the new window -- making the opening.

The new window. 7 feet by 4 feet, 10 inches. Lotsa light now!
