At a standstill but that is okay

I am on a support forum that has a daily weigh-in challenge... I decided I would do it this month to see what happens. I'm still down (what did I say, 3.2 lbs?) and nothing more for this week. I am okay with that. I don't want my weight to just melt off. I don't know how healthy that would be. I mean, I didn't gain it all in 3 months, why should I expect to lose it in 3 months, right?

On another note... our little dog is holding his own. I thought we were going to have to put him to sleep this week. He hasn't been able to walk since March 2010. We've carried him where he needed to go, and let him use puppy pee pads... and cleaned up when he couldn't make it to the puppy pads. We had decided that as long as his quality of life was good and he was happy, we would let things remain as they were. Last weekend must have been a not-good one for him. He didn't do his tail thump, or happy bark. And the light was not shining in his sweet eyes when he looked at us. All of those things have returned. I know the end is near, but I think we have a little more time. Oreo is the sweetest little boy. This photo is from February 2008 when he was pretty much at his healthiest point.
