from me too ! And a happy whatever else people might celabrate at this time of the year.(just to be politically correct.....I got told off one year on amps for wishing people a happy Christmas )
Merry Christmas everybody!! (I know this is a little late, considering its 11:00pm on the 25th lol....This has been a bitter-sweet Christmas...I got great presents, etc (I got S & G Old Friends Boxed Set!!) BUT its been probably the worst Christmas, because yesterday we had to put down my dog, Buddy....I miss him alot...
That´s sad, did he have a disease.
I hope he was not to young.
I understand that you miss him alot, dogs are so faithful. I hope you find some comfort with the Boxed Set.
That´s terrible Kath. I lost my own very ancient cat earlier this year and know exactly how it feels. Remember one thing...no matter how bad you feel now , that dog has brought you far more happinesss in it´s life time than it has brought sorrow. Eventually the good memories will push away the bad ones of yesterday. (Also , somewhere waiting there is another little dog that will bring you just as much happiness again )
Have you got a good photograph of your dog ? Why not frame it and put it somewhere prominent.
My sympathy to you sweetie. I know how painful it is too lose a dear friend. We lost one of the cats during the summer and it was very painful. It didn´t help that I was at my sisters when he passed over and was burried by the time I got back home.Now Im feeling more than a little worried about my cat Tibbs. I´ve had her almost 20 years and I think the loss of Marmalade hit her terribly. They´d been together for about 18 years so you can imagine how she is. Now she seem terribly quite and not herself. I don´t think this last couple of weeks has helped as everything has been up in the air with getting ready for Christmas and I´ve been away on a number of occassions.
So my fingers are crossed that she will return to her self again in the New Year.
All I can add Kath is that the pain will ease. Focus on all the positive things, how much fun you had with Buddy. If he is in the garden then go out and talk with him.
To help me I did my own little pagan ceremony. It helped me greatly.
