the snow falls.  or rather the freezing rain.  ice rain theysay.  I am in Michigan, spending under two weeks in the my parents’ house with my parents and one of my brothers.

and it snows.  constantly.  here.

The pups and Daniel are in Illinois still.  and I am with Tomato again!  Tomato amazing tomato!  amazing light!  she is incredible to me…

a) I think that she is aware of people and energies and comings and goings in astounding ways.

b) I think the intensity of her love is a gift.

c) I think the ways in which she has changed and become a healthy functioning dog are miraculous.

d) I think of what may or may not have become of her if we had not taken her (and Tunas and Nata) into our lives.

Where we were in Mexico people do not want female dogs.  They do not want to deal with pups or spending the money on neutering them.  SOOOO  those perritas born on the street end up streetdogs or landfill dogs or dead dogs.  any of these things could have been tomato, and instead she is glory glory.  a healthy functioning queen!!

oh universe.

How tired I am.  more updates in the days that come.
