The March issue of Creature Thoughts was not published, as you know, because on the 26th of February, I lost my Dad. It has, as I’m sure is no surprise, been a rocky month. Not only have our family been dealing with the pain of such a loss, we have been battling bureaucracy, chasing down legal loose ends, and attempting (not always successfully) to put all of the overwhelming aspects of life in some semblance of order. In our self-centered human way, as preoccupied as we are, it might be easy to forget that there is another victim of grief left behind.

We two have run about the slopes,
and picked the daisies fine ;
But we’ve wandered many a weary foot,
since auld lang syne.
