It feels like time for a small update as a lot has happened. It has been 4 months since I lost my job/quit, yet finances have not been an issue. In one week my fiance will have her interview at the US Embassy for her K-1/K-2 Visa application (Visa to come to US for purpose of marriage) so our journey to be together is potentially happening soon (after 18 months). Lastly, my best friend and companion of over 14 years passed away 2 weeks ago. Yes, I lost Oscar.
I have had many pets/companions over the last 50 years. Dogs, Cats, reptiles, amphibians. birds, rodents and even arachnids. However, Oscar has been my longest companion ever and by far the most important one. He has traveled with me extensively over the years, been there during some of my most trying of times (new jobs, leaving Navy, Divorce, depression attacks... etc). It has been a few weeks but it still feels different waking up and not having him there in the bed with me. I think, someday, I may have to finish the poem I started about him. I will forever miss him.
