She went peacefully. I'm glad she won't suffer anymore. I'm gonna miss my dog forever.
It's like the weather knew what my dog's favorite thing was - snow. So we took her to the beach in the snow, and she sniffed until she got tired.
Now for the hardest part. I feel like she's telling us she's ready, and that helps - even though I'm not ready at all.
Dogs are the best. The absolute best.
Sazi has had a steady stream of visitors all day. Telling stories. Telling her she's a good girl. She's enjoying all the pets but in true Sazi fashion, she hates being the center of attention.
It's going to be a hard weekend.
Thanks. We're going to take her to the beach one last time on Friday morning, then say goodbye Friday afternoon.
Ohhhh no I thought Duran had that!
Did I hear that right on the #wbc broadcast? That Randy and Cal met up and hugged it out?
I'm a little distracted today.
Congrats to James Paxton, Josh Naylor, and Team Canada - advancing to the quarterfinals for the first time in their #wbc history!
Oh man. They have to lift Paxton at 49 pitches with two strikes on a batter so he's available for the semis.
Great outing for this retired Mariner.
Big Maple (James Paxton) throwing some straight filth for Canada. Five run lead in the bottom of the 9th with one out left
I'm so happy, given that his previous outing wasn't as good.
Thank you. π«
Thank you. She's been the best dog.
I'm glad there's baseball on today. I can watch it while keeping an eye on my sweet old girl.
Thank you. She's the bestest girl.
Well on top of everything else - my knee injury, the one year anniversary of my MIL's death, and having to care for my FIL - we learned this morning that our old dog Sazi is in late stage kidney disease and we have to put her down soon.
To say I'm heartbroken is an understatement.
They couldn't get the puck in the net after the first period.
West Coast!
Eh? Not sure.
The WBC rules around this are pretty loose.
Italy does have a professional baseball league.
βI misspokeβ¦ Completely misread the calculations.β
Manager Mark DeRosa confirms he did not know Team USA could still be eliminated during pool play
Kraken are so flat.
VIVA ITALIA!!!!! #wbc
Sigh. Not a fan of the Festa Fiesta.
Agreed - but I'm thinking more of the game itself. To me, it helps grow the game globally if another country wins.
Pasquatch and Caglianone - are there more?
I love Pasquatch.
That's fine. We can agree to disagree.
I personally think it's better for the game of baseball globally if the US doesn't win this tournament.
Dammit PCA. #wbc
Not sure.
Most of the players were born in the US and are of Italian heritage. WBC rules are a little loose.
Italy has a professional baseball league, though!
Canada beats Puerto Rico 3-2.
With a win tomorrow, Canada not only will advance to their first WBC quarterfinals -- they'd also secure the top spot in Pool A and would face the runner-up of Pool B on Saturday.
With a loss, Canada's journey would end.
still lots of time to go in USA-Italy, but if USA loses and doesn't give up any more runs tonight (down 8-1 now), looks like a Mexico 9-inning win tomorrow giving up no more than 5 runs tomorrow to Italy would eliminate USA
