This is Peanut Butter Brickle. Today starts a new year. But it’s also a new day. And I’m starting off the first blog of 2024 with some wisdom. I have a lot of that.
The last year didn’t quite go exactly as we had planned. But that is what happens when you plan too far ahead. Life has a way of telling you otherwise.
There’s a lot on our plates right now. And I mean more than spaghetti.
We want to get to that Italy place to live in a little house we already bought.
And we want to get started on new adventures in that Italy place.
But out of all the things that have went wrong lately, we didn’t plan on me not feeling well. I’ve been a strong dog for many years. And I keep loving life.
But the last few weeks have been hard for me. With pain and other things. And there is just a simple fact right now. I have to get better. And there is nothing and nowhere…not even a whole country like Italy…that is more important.
So I heard the persons discussing our options yesterday. I heard them even talking about the things that have went right to get us there. And they were trying to be very positive. I was happy about that. Because when you don’t feel good, like me right now, the last thing you need to feel is guilt.
They said instead of planning so far ahead, we have to concentrate on 24 hours at a time. The 24 hours in front of us. Because every day will get us closer to our goals.
The focus is on me right now. This show is the Brickle show.
And so to find some vets to help me right now, we need to stay in one place for a month. We can’t just be moving everywhere. We have to focus on me. Then, we take it from there.
If you have ever been through a health scare like me, you know sometimes that you do feel guilty for troubling others. Or interfering in plans of others. But the truth is, the ones that truly love you will be there. No matter what. And love? Love can work magic. I saw that with Digby when he beat the odds for years after doctors gave up. Love didn’t give up.
So decide to be your best self and do your best every day. Don’t overwhelm yourself with things that may happen or may not. Have goals. And work everyday to get there. One day at a time.
