Aww, Amstel ❤️
Honestly, I had no idea it was a beer brand. If I saw a bottle now, I'd probably think "oh look, like Eric's dog" xD
I love the sense of "we pulled through together" in your stories here. I think it's wonderful how you turned out, after all that, 'cause there seem to be two meanings to "I survived that", and one implies a sense of meanness, vengefulness at the world for having survived. You don't seem like that, fortunately. :)

He was such a good dog. Facebook Memories are a doubled-edged sword. I see pictures of him come up almost every day. Amstel Light is a Dutch brand and they export it here. It's not my favorite TBH. I'm not a huge fan of lagers. If we adopt a female dog next her name will definitely be Stella (Artois). : )
Thanks my friend. I'm thankful we were able to work through it all virtually unscathed in the end. Although I do have a healthy distrust of financial institutions and elected officials that I'll never be able to shake. These prompts uncover so many things inside me that have been buried for years. From writing this I learned a couple valuable things -- 1) How much Amstel helped us get through those hard days; 2) The Housing Crisis planted the seed for my willingness to be an early adopter of crypto.
