Weeping Alot On The Last Day Of 2006... Options

[BooBoo's Mom]

I just don't know what the matter is with me, but this changing of the year is making me so sad and weepy. I just DON'T WANT my dog to have died "last year." All day today, I haven't been able to think or speak of my dog without crying and I haven't done that since he first died in March. I feel like I am losing him all over again just because a new year will soon start. I guess it's like he doesn't exist in 2007, like he did in 2006. I feel like the world doesn't know him in 2007. I tell you, I feel crazy sometimes.

Mary I can certainly understand what you are feeling having to go back to that hospital. I do think it is special that you are caring for your mother's dogs and vice versa. I am sorry for all the loss you have had. Unfortunately death is the final chapter in any life on earth and so hard for the survivors to overcome at times.

Renee,
Just a few more minutes of 2006 and we will have made it through. One day at a time.

My candles for Ellie are lit next to her cedar box with ashes I brought home just today. I have her with me in our boudoir. The Ball is lit in Times Square and here we go into the new year.
