Well, I won't lie, losing my best friend, Ben, last summer has really kicked my ass. I haven't found my 'footing' yet, but gardening has kept my head above water at least.
Can't focus on painting, reading or much of anything other than gardening and being outdoors.
What are you up to?
Hope life is treating you well,
I remember how long it took before I could think of getting another dog. I have always had a dog but still could not bring myself to "replace" Abby. Then one day a runaway pair of Chihuahuas turned up at the apartment. My neighbor and I each took one. I ran ads and searched ads because I could tell they were someone's pets but when I couldn't find the owner, I thought I had no choice but to take him to the shelter. It just so happened that the shelter was full and they told me to come back in 3 weeks. You know the end. By the time 3 weeks were up Buddy was my dog and that rascal has been with me ever since. Sometimes life provides even when you don't ask.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great story, Barb. I have faith that someday it will happen for me. In the meantime, I will continue to heal ♥
