Things are back to normal, more or less. Nemo’s surgery went well; he’s home and we are following the veterinarian’s directions. He limps a lot but his foot is securely bandaged. When he goes outside, he has to wear a plastic sleeve to keep dampness off the bandage.
He wags his tail, is happy to be home, but he’s quieter. That’s probably due to his meds, and it’s OK that he’s quiet. Bouncing around would hurt his foot.
I’m reminded of something Jane said a few years back–orrdinary days are the best days. She was right. When things are going smoothly, everyone is well and at their respective places, when peace reigns, those are the very best days of all. As life is not a smooth path, some days are rocky and it’s hard to get over them. I’ve experienced some of those. You have too. So, I cherish the ordinary days.
So, this morning, I’ll work on concluding Moonstruck. It happens during a very rainy March in Ednalee, Oklahoma. It’s the month with two full moons, a blue moon month, just as we had this year. But, the days for Ned McNeil are never ordinary for long. In fact, I don’t think she has had two ordinary days in a row. You see, there’s something going on in her hometown. A rich land owner has died and the wheels of greed and murder are in motion. What does Ned do about it and how does it concern her? You know that she is right in the middle of the whole thing.
As the sun rises a little higher in the east, I see dappled shade on my neighbor’s lawn–some sunny places, some dark. That’s life, isn’t it?
