The evening had its frustrating moments, but it also had its good ones. Karl and I had a good time just being with each other; too much of our time is spent in opposite ends of the house, each working at our respective computers, or with kids around. We love our kids, of course, but sometimes it's good to have a bit of quiet time alone.
We will continue to hope good things for those whose lives so briefly touched ours. I think the VW driver will be alright. It is the dog I worry about. It's odd, because it was I who put my foot down about not bringing any more strays home, but really it wasn't so much the bringing them home as the keeping them; we've got too many dogs, all rescues, as it is. But, this dog was so clearly someone's pet until very recently, with a beautiful long apricot coat that had been recently brushed, and a gentle expression on its face. I went back out and looked for it this morning, but there's no sign of it. We can only hope that it was picked up by its owner or by someone who will care for it and see it finds a good home.
