I’ve been spending my time in so much pain from this blown disk, feeling a little down and sorry for myself. And then Oldest sent me this. It’s so cute and precious, I can barely stand it. But it went a long way toward cheering me up. If these pics don’t make you smile, then you need to have your smiler checked.

Great pictures but momma dog looks a little overwhelmed. Wonder what the puppies think of their new sibling.

What wonderful pictures. It does my heart good to see the unexpected kindness and caretaking that exists in the universe.
A friend had a similar problem – I used to visit her while she lay on the floor at home, so I know how painful and demoralizing disk problems are. The good news: you are absolutely entitled to guilt-free pampering. Feel better!
