Yesterday, we lost a cherished member of our family.
We got Sunny at the start of our second term in the White House, and all of us – including our first dog, Bo – immediately fell in love. We also had trouble keeping up with her, for Sunny was a force of nature. Athletic and full of boundless energy, she leapt over the hedges on the South Lawn like they weren’t even there, chasing squirrels, birds and anything else that moved. And whereas the way to Bo’s heart usually involved a treat, Sunny was more interested in having us run around with her, roll on the floor with her, or have her belly rubbed for as long as we were willing.
She loved the girls, even if they were pestering her when she was napping. She loved our team, and would often follow them around, helping them on the job. She was fiercely protective of Bo, who she rightly sensed wasn’t always as alert and attentive as she was. She had her eccentricities: other than Bo, she preferred people to dogs; she was a loud and sloppy drinker; and despite being a Portuguese Water Dog, she hated getting wet.
But as far as our family was concerned, she was pretty much perfect, and for thirteen years, she would be by our side – always loyal, always sweet, always ready for adventure, still fiery and gorgeous till the very end of her days.
We will miss her terribly, and imagine she’s with her big brother now, making sure he’s okay.
¡ESTA IMAGEN NOS ROMPIÓ EL CORAZÓN! 💔🇳🇴
Tras el silbatazo final de la eliminación de Noruega en la Copa del Mundo, Orjan Nyland no pudo contener las lágrimas. El arquero estaba completamente desconsolado y se culpaba por el error que terminó en el gol de la victoria de Inglaterra.
Muchos recordarán únicamente esa jugada. Pero el fútbol no puede reducirse a un solo instante.
Durante todo el Mundial, Nyland fue uno de los grandes responsables de que Noruega alcanzara, por primera vez en su historia, unos Cuartos de Final. Fue figura en varias noches inolvidables y hasta le atajó un penal a Brasil para mantener vivo el sueño de todo un país.
Por eso dicen que ser arquero es la posición más cruel del fútbol: puedes salvar a tu equipo una y otra vez, pero un solo error es suficiente para que muchos olviden todo lo demás.
No hay peor sensación que sentirte responsable de la derrota cuando lo diste absolutamente todo.
Hoy no importa la bandera que defiendas. Todos estamos con Orjan Nyland.
TIENES NUESTRO RESPETO, NYLAND. 👏❤️
Cartoon Café, a proudly pro-Palestine family-owned business in Siargao, was trashed by Israelis last month. The unruly tourists also assaulted the couple that owns the place, their child thankfully unharmed.
@daxramires and I visited their establishment today.🧵🇵🇭🇵🇸
