I can't believe the calender is getting close to February which means it'll soon be 1 month since I've last seen my baby. It may well have been the longest month of my life - and it's probably good I haven't really given myself time yet to breath it all in. I have this constant nagging feeling that I am forgetting something - but in reality the nagging thing is that I'm always remembering. With the weather today I was reminded how Rocky was always so confused when snow fell. He would typically hide in my closet and would stay far away from where he could see outside.
His reaction when the snow was done falling was quite different. I was very curious how he would react to snow when we moved cross country in 2006. Rocky had never seen snow until that winter (he was 5) - and the first time I took him out in it, he started sniffing and pawing at the snow. After about 2 minutes of this, he looked at me and got into his play "stance". And after that it was just on... he would frolic around, running amuck, zig zagging with no real destination in mind... and really the only that would eventually slow him down was the "Let's Go Home" command that he knew meant it was time to leave or go inside. I really hope he'll be outside somewhere once the snow stops falling since it gave him such joy.
There were no new sightings today - not surprising considering I don't think he would have been out much on day like this. Please continue the volunteer efforts for all those that have taken the time to contact me or Nancy (testerdesp@aol.com). Thanks for all that have given their time or donated (and I do promise to thank you all personally very soon).
Let's Go Home Rocky. Let's Go Home...
