Remodeling, and a goodbye to an old friend
Category: gardening among the rocks | Posted: Thu Feb 08, 2007 8:39 pm My wall is all finished, and I'm loving the space it's created. I painted up some old wood chairs and made a really nice space out in the open part, and after I get done here I'm going to work on a drawing in my "new" studio space (former closet). Should be a really good room for DS to have his friends over for band practice or whatever. Jack was ready to go. He didn't even protest being put in the car. And for him to not eat cheese with an aspirin in it? Unheard of. The vets office was nearly empty that time of night which is good, because Jack hated being on slippery floors. They took him back right away, and I said my short goodbyes. He couldn't even muster up a tail wag, but I could see it in his cataract-glazed eyes. I think he was just wondering why we'd waited so long. The house seems so empty and lonely now- I've never had a problem with loneliness. I even seriously considered a job offer to work on an isolated island years ago, I rather like being alone to work & think. But being dogless for the first time in 18 years is a lonely thing. My cat is being extra-affectionate, I think she misses Jack too. But it's nice out today and she's out being catty. So I'm cruising craigslist for dogs, nothing promising yet. Been contacted by a couple of people wanting several hundred for purebreds, but I like muddled up mutts. DH is wondering what I want to do on Valentines day- think I'll have him drive me to the pound to check out the possibilities there, though I'm wondering if it wouldn't be best to just focus on the other things that vie for my attention...

So sorry to hear about Jack. I know it is a very hard thing to have to do.
Another arrival at the Rainbow Bridge. Welcome Jack.
There are so many friends of mine who will greet Jack. The decisions we who have animal companions have to make are difficult. It is good that they seem to tell us when the time is right.
Poor Jack, sending a big gnome hug your way Critter...
The pound is the right place to find a new friend. Sorry for your loss
Oh dear, this entry makes me cry for every missed friend. I know that feeling you described and I am so so sorry. When you are ready the right dog will appear. Trust me.
So sorry Mary, I know the feeling all too well. Maybe it is best to wait awhile, but it wouldn't hurt to check the pound anyway. Who knows your next love just might be there.
Oh so sad to here about Jack.I know its best but gosh its hard.Maybe Jack and my little Prissy will team up on Rainbow Bridge she always like to make new friends.You will find the right little one when your ready.Maybe the pound has that pup thats just waiting for you to come in so he can pick you.
You did exactly the right thing for Jack - just as we had to do for Blue. They'll be together now having fun I'm sure. Login or register to leave a comment. |
