I still can't believe it but I am retiring on Tuesday. As in THIS Tuesday. As in October 1.
YIPPEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!
Also, I am so enjoying reading all of your posts. Many of them are about the main reason I've been looking forward to retirement --
which I think of as "stopping to smell the roses."
Congratulations! Wednesday morning you will open your eyes and then it will really hit you that you will not be making that some old trip to work. Unless you have been working from your home.
Oh I'm so very sorry. Losing a beloved animal is one of the hardest things in the world. I lost my girl in July and I know how heavy your heart must be right now. Beautiful puppy.
What the heck happened? You took such good care of him/her. I am shocked, Jim, and sooooooo very sorry. Oh, now I'm getting teary, I certainly didn't expect to get on this thread and see this.........
Oh no! Jim, I'm so so sorry. I was picturing you and your best friend enjoying your new digs and now this. What a terrible shock. I'm without words but know my thoughts are with you.
You provided a home for those two dogs when they needed one and now you see what a great decision that was. Dogs truly are our best friends and unfortunately for us, their time on earth is limited.
I'm sorry to hear this and understand how lost you feel. It's been a year since I lost my great friend and I still think of her everyday even though I have 2 other dogs here. For some reason each time I go to Target it really hits me. Not sure why Target should be the trigger but it is so I plan what I need and I get in and get out as fast as I can.
When you're ready there are so many other pups that need a good home - a new one (or two) wouldn't replace the ones you lost but you will grow to love them as well. They will love you in return -it's a good thing.
Jim, I am so sad and sorry to read this news. Such a beautiful dog and an exceptional companion to you.
Allow yourself time to grieve and feel the feelings, but still take care of yourself. It is very tough to go through the loss of a loyal dog companion, but they enrich our lives and souls deeply. Dogs do a great job of keeping things real.
Your dog had a wonderful life with you!
