Splintering is typically only a concern for cooked bones. The ones you can buy at the store for dogs are smoked.

My dog got each of his canine cousins a beef knuckle bone for Christmas.

I cooked tonight which is a bit unusual right now unless for a specific purpose like thanksgiving. I haven't just cooked regularly since my person died. I wonder if it will stick this time.

Thats sweet! Plus im glad to see you back.

What did you cook, stopdog? I hate cooking, unless it's for my dog. Last time I cooked was at Thanksgiving. I made the dogs a dog-safe turkey and sides. It was exhausting. I've been living on Triscuits, cheese, and toast since Thanksgiving... should probably consume a fruit or vegetable before Christmas.

Damn it, I looked up this song my T mentioned today (related to something I said), and now it's stuck in my head. (I'd say what it was but don't want to cause any earworms.)

That sounds similar to my diet lately (plus coffee and beer)...not the best self-care. And I actually like cooking, just no energy/motivation. Thanks, depression!

I went out and got a tree. Not a lot left - they were really picked over!! I hope it opens some! It's super skinny right now. I bought new lights too.

Looking at it now, I am having a sudden case of the feels missing my son. I feel tears wanting to come.

Anyway here's my tree. It looks so small and forlorn.

I just put on some holiday music and it is cheering me up. Maybe I'll light some candles too.

It looks lovely. My cats managed to break my tree last night. It was only 2 weeks old.
