Sweet Maggie Mae...

We sadly learned yesterday that Day's girlfriend, his sweet Maggie Mae, had left to watch over all who loved her from Rainbow Bridge. So, today we remember sweet Maggie Mae as we always will and we'll continue to wish we might see her suddenly appear at the door just once more to call on her Day to join her for a camp walk.....


"Hey Day! Wan'ta come outside and play with me again?"
"Sorry my sweet Maggie Mae... I'm just too tired already from our walk."
"Ohhhhh, well we don't have to play lots, Day, we could even just hang... maybe sniff the fresh air a little, look around, hold paws."
"How 'bout you come inside and nap with me instead? I'll even nap here on the floor so you can have my cozy-squishy bed... My mama said you can come inside, you just have to tell your dad first so he knows where you are."
"Or, maybe we could compromise... maybe we could mix being outside together and napping together by napping outside together on your outdoor hammock-thingy beds. How 'bout that?"
"If I wasn't already laying down, I'd totally be down for that... it's just the getting up and moving that's holding me back from act'lly makin' it happen. And anyhow, Maggie Mae... how come you're not falling over tired after our walk? I mean, your little legs have to move like a trillion times more than mine so technically you walked at least two times farther than I did!"
"I guess I've just gotten really super good at conserving my energy on my endurance walks with you." *shrug*
"Oh, maybe you could teach me some endurance techniques... I've always just been more into sprinting. We can start right after I have my recovery nap, okay?"
"Okay... So, I'll see you in a couple of hours, then?"
"Four-and-a-half tops!"
"Okay... I'll be seeing you soon then, Day??"
*yawwwwwn* "Yep... I'll be seeing you soon, my sweet, sweet Maggie Mae....."

Goodbyes are so unfair... grumble, sniff.....
