Thursday – A Little Personal – Twiggy Gets a Visitor

~ John W. Howell

“Okay, Dad. I thought you were going to a wedding.”

“Well, it seems a member of the wedding party has COVID.”

“So you’re not going?”

“I can’t take the risk. I’ve got to be careful since I’m older and have other risk factors.”

“What does that mean for me?”

“Well, for one, you don’t get Mom all to yourself.”

“Wow. That’s a kick to the heart. I was counting on some alone time with Mom.”

“Your cousin Kizzy was going to visit for four days, too.”

“She does come on Sundays, so I guess I’ll get by.”

“I have no fear you’ll get by. Kizzy sent you a text.”

“Hey, Twiggy. See you Sunday.”

“That was nice. Well, Dad what should we do now?”

“We can play a game.”

“That sounds great.”

  12. Oh I hope you’re feeling better, John and that you show us some pictures of Kizzy and Twiggy together. Also, Twiggy’s expression when she realizes she won’t have Mom all to herself is classic!

  13. That’s disappointing, but you are wise to be careful, John. After going through the Covid ordeal, I can attest that it’s no fun. I bet Twiggy is happy you’re staying home — more playtime with papa. 😊

  15. A very wise decision about the wedding. Having just spent three weeks in the arms of Covid, I can recommend you avoid it! And Kizzy – what a gorgeous canine. But talk about Mutt and Jeff. Kizzy could carry Twiggy around on her back!

  16. I like how Twiggy looks at you, then looks away. Like she has to think about what you are telling her. Kizzy looks like a sweetie. I wonder if Twiggy will show her where the rhino sounds come from.

  17. Awww… That’s too bad, John. I’m sure you were looking forward to it. However, better safe than sorry so you’ve made the right decision. Kizzy is a beauty!

  18. I’m sorry you’ll miss the wedding, but caution is prudent in cases like these. Praying they have a good day and long, happy life together.

    It’s nice to see Twiggy didn’t take the schedule change too hard. Her cousin looks like a happy dog. I’m sure they enjoy their visits. Ear scratches for Twiggy. And for both her and Kizzy on Sunday.

  19. Sorry you didn’t get to go, but I’m glad you didn’t expose yourself to it. Sounds like a fun upcoming visit with Kizzy, though!

  20. Covid and hurricanes. Two things that can disrupt a wedding. And always better to find out before rather than after. My sister-in-law who has lots of reasons not to get covid is two weeks into trying to shake the covid some anonyms donor shared with her. Stay safe John. Long distance toasts are therapeutic and still work.

  21. Kizzy is one BIG doggie!! I’m sorry you can’t attend the festivities — doggone COVID has ruined so many special occasions. But I’m glad you’re being careful. No sense getting sick to attend in person when you can view the photos in the comfort of your home!

  24. That is such a shame, John, but it’s better to safe than sorry. You’ll get to see the pictures and probably a video or two, eh?
    That Kizzy looks like she’s been trained as a show dog. Beautiful animal.

  28. Sorry you’ll be missing the wedding, John, but it was nice of them to let you know. Twiggy’s expressions (or your captions) are perfect today, especially the one after she learns she’ll be missing alone time with mom.

  33. I say! Kizzy is so serious. A perfect company for Twiggy’s activities at the Resort. I wish you happy time in New York, dear John! Let it be a great party! 🍍🍍🍍🍤🍤🍤🍻🎃🎃🎃😉
