Yes, I have a hard time even writing it. 11.5 wonderful years of our lives with the sweetest dog ever. Unconfirmed but from symptoms a brain tumor. His jaws locked up again. THe neurologist said a brain tumor or a Neuropathy. I cannot wait to get his ashes tomorrow. I miss him , we are all as you can imagine sad. There are waves of peacefulness however. Im still pretending he's here when I just have to.
I am all alone in my house, missing my dog. We put her down on Saturday. Thanks for stopping by my blog.
We put her in the back yard, where she can see the back door.
Oh my, this is hard. I recognize we have done the right thing, but it doesn't make us any less lonely. It freaks me out that no one's stretched out on the couch, that there's only floor tile where the bowls used to be, and it pisses me off that I still have dog hair to vacuum up but I have no dog to make it ok.
Oh no, Kathy!!!! I'm crying as I type this. I'm so so so sorry. I wish I could be with you to give you a hug in person. I know Huck is in a better place and feeling fabulous - except his is sad that he isn't "with" you any more. He is still with you though, just in a different way.
Oh Kathy. My heart aches right now. We were just talking about Huck at lunch. Jessie-girl is in her room now crying and thinking of you all. Continuing to lift your family in prayer.
I am so very sorry for your loss. You and your family are in our prayers. They are such wonderful creatures that God created. I always pray, Dear Lord, Please let me be the person my dog thinks I am.
Kathy, like all your other pretend friends, I am very sorry to hear the news. I remember the photo shortly after I 'met" you of Huck looking through your sock blockers.
I'm so sorry for you and your family. I know dogs have such an important place in the heart of the owner. So glad that you have wonderful memories. We're thinking of you!
Your loss is so heartbreaking. There is no magic easy way to lose a pet, but I'm sure you can take comfort in the knowledge that Huck loved you and you gave him an awesome life.

Oh, I am so very sorry over the loss of your dear beautiful Huck! Losing a furry family member is never easy, and even though we sometimes have to make that final decision for them, it's one truely made from our hearts.
Please, during this time of grieving, please remember to take care of yourself. Take time to feel whatever it is that you are feeling, in that moment.
Kathy B, somehow, I missed that Huck is gone. I am so sorry that you lost such a good friend. When Maggie died a few years ago, I told the vet that I always wished that I could be the kind of person my dog thought I was. I know that you know what I mean....Huck had the best life even on your bad days. So sorry.
Is that vague enough for you? It has been a too busy complicated Spring. I had no energy to blog. All is well now, so I can share some things with you: 1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa. Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures. 2. I did not see one shooting star last night. I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m. The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones. 3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch? On the same day. Tis true. 4. What have I knitted lately? I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit. I ripped out a shawl that I was making up. It was cotton and pretty. I need to follow a pattern. 5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead. I haven't worked a thumb in a long time. I may have to frog it too. So I have been knitting, but not making things. 6. MY gardens are growing. I have 3 main areas I
These are the one square bunnies . They are a free pattern on Rave1ry. I'm bunny making to force spring to come. I'm a1so taking it easy on my hands again. The med we tried did keep my hands from shaking, but it was a med for a med. and that's crazy town. I can contro1 a hook much better than need1es. It wi11 have to suffice for now. I'm enjoying your b1ogs and your Spring. This time of year I so want to 1ive in a southern state. But this Spring is a new one for me and I'm going to find a way to 1ove it. IT may have just gotten to 50. Degrees. I have to run. There's very ear1y yardwork to do. The birds have 1eft a rotten mess of sunf1ower she11s under the feeders. I hope it is not frozen! Have you been switching things up in your neck of the woods? I haven't forgotten you, b1og pa1s. I 1ove seeing you on Instagram .
I am pretty sure I smile when I knit. I'm going to think about that today when I pick up the baby blanket in progress. I am also pretty sure I cry when I knit; well, not really. I have shed some tears over the years but they were way back. I surely scowl when I drop a stitch. A time lapse of knitters' faces would be interesting enough .... Tank, aka Helo, is starting to smile around here. Just look into those aqua eyes......they make me smile all the time. He is half Siamese and all gorgeous.

I'll be your dog-grief buddy.

Love and hugs from all of us!
We are all thinking of you.
