For those of you who don’t know, can’t remember, or didn’t read the previous articles about Chester; Chester is my cartoon self. He represents my feelings, activities and daily life; and he marks big events in my life. Sometimes he helps me solve problems by stepping back and seeing them through a different pair of eyes. Lucy is the love of Chester’s life.
When Chester first met Lucy, he lived alone in a tiny cabin close to their church. He met her parents at church, before he met her.
Chester wasn’t lonely, and he loved his home. He had nice neighbors; he could walk everywhere he went; and he was very close to the library. Chester loves to read.
Chester wasn’t lonely, and he also wasn’t EVER alone.
Chester was unemployed due to his mental illness, so he stayed at home most days with his dog, LOGAN. That is how Chester writes Logan’s name whenever he talks about him. It isn’t for emphasis. I suppose he spells it that way because LOGAN is such a small dog with a large personality. LOGAN never ran out of energy. But Chester did! LOGAN followed him everywhere he went. LOGAN took every opportunity to sit in Chester’s lap. LOGAN always wanted to play. Chester never got space from LOGAN. He rarely wanted it, though. LOGAN was a good, sweet, and very smart dog. He still is.
LOGAN loves Lucy! Whenever Chester walked LOGAN, he led Chester straight to Lucy’s art gallery.
Lucy loves LOGAN!
And Chester was beginning to love Lucy, as well.
