Thanks for the hugs, it's really just what I needed. Ya know sometimes ya just need to hear it'll be alright. And it helps.
My granddaughter has a rat terrier named Molly. Molly was there before Savannah so Molly has always been in Savannah's life ( she is now 3 1/2). One evening Molly got lost and Savannah was going to pieces from worry. Her mother couldnt' find Molly so when her daddy got home he went on the search. Molly had gotten into the wheat field behind their house and couldn't find her way out. Stephen just kept calling until she found his voice and followed it out. When she ran into the house Savannah was so happy! Some pets are family...we call her Molly Finch...not just Molly. Her "sister" Savannah told her to never scare her like that again and then gave her a big hug.Pets are so important...they give you unconditional love and acceptance...kind of like children only these have 4 legs and more hair...LOL. I even included a story about our 4 legged friends in my first book. They are always special....
My son had to have one of his "best friends" put to sleep a few months ago. She had been with him all thru college and lived to be 15 years old which is a long life. She definitely had a mind of her own and the personality to go with it!She was one of my "granddogs" years before I finally had grandchildren. We still miss her...think I'll go have a chocolate bar myself. Hope you are feeling better by now....
Ah Angie, I am so sorry about your dog! I now it really hurts, I have been there before.I'm also sorry about your 'jerk' boss. Things will work out, everything happens for a reason even if we can't figure out what the reason is.
Do something nice for yourself and feel better! :)
Sorry to hear about your dog, Angie. After that many years, it wasn't a pet any more, it was family. I agree with Teri about the supplemental job. Look for something that fits your passion so it's not so much like work.
***hugs***
Angie, I'm so sorry about your pup - I had to put my old kitty Mr down last June and it nearly killed me, my first experience with all of that. ((((((***hugs & comfort***)))))) coming your way. I'm sorry about the job too. Try to look at this not as a door closing, but as an opportunity - I agree w/Teri and the others. Find your niche, not just another job, to supplement your lost income. Message me any time if you need someone to vent to!
Oh my goodness. Thank you all so very much for the love and support. I love the goodbye party idea Teri and I have just the things to add to a box for Bruno. He was like family and I don't think any other dog would replace him. He's my 5th one since I was a kid and really one of the best I ever had.And as for the job you are all so right. This is just a new opportunity for me to search for something else that I would truly enjoy doing.
Love and hugs to you all, the most wonderful group I have had the fortune to be a part of.
Oh Angie, I'm so sorry to hear about your dog. It's so hard losing a pet. I swear I love my dog more than my brother. As for your job, maybe that's just pushing you towards opening up your tea shop.
Sending hugs your way!!!
Great advice here from everyone Angie and I'm glad that the Chicks could be here for you. Try to hang in there and see the positive, bright side somewhere in all that foggy and dark negative stuff.... you'll see it soon.... I just know it.
I'm sorry for your loss Angie! If I can do anything for you, just holler. I'm always on your side!I'm sending you a million kisses and all my love!
I am so sorry Angie. What about making a scrapbook also? Memories are important.
Sorry about your dog. Pets are family. I know under your current circumstances, you can't get another dog-but is there a no kill shelter you could volunteer at(or if you can take the fact some dogs you help might be killed a humane society)? Knowing you were helping other dogs might help. Between Feb of 2006 and April of 2007, I lost 5 cats. Don't panic thinking i'm a bad owner-the youngest was 16 1/2(I had had her-you can't say you own a cat-16 years) and the oldest was 21 years 3 months(I had had her since she was 9 months old). I adopted 3 more cats in the next year-two of them ones no one else would have adopted (one had been turned over to my vet for a problem personality-she hissed and bit-she now regularly sleeps with me cuddling up to me and loves to be petted, one had a lame foot). I love them just as much as the ones who died.And lit wise-I assume you have heard of the piece "The rainbow bridge" about pets waiting to meet you when you die.
Awww, sweetie, I am so very sad to hear about your loss! Losing a pet is one of the hardest things, I know. {{{Hugs}}} to you, and hopes that you will feel better soon.
I'm so sorry for your loss; as one who has had mmany pets throughout the years, I know what you are going through. Your pets ARE family. Every time I get home from anywhere I come into the house and say "Hi, kids!"I LOVE the idea that Teri had with the closure/goodbye party.
And as for your job, I too, think that this is a time to start looking elsewhere. There's something better out there for you!
Hope the chocolate ice cream helped -
TAKE CARE!
Angie-I am so sorry to hear about your loss of your pet. My four beagles are a big part of my family and it is always hard to lose a loved animal. I call them my babies and they really are.I agree with Debbie about the job situation...go somewhere where you are more appreciated. You have an amazing creative mind and you should work somewhere where you can put that to use!

I don't think I'll get another dog for a while but it'd be nice to be around them, till the next pup picks me as it's new found family. (That's how all my pets appear) I do have two cats. Oreo is 9 and Ally is 5. Ally is Oreo's kitten and she was stillborn when she popped out. I rubbed her belly, blew in her nose and helped give her back life. She is the sweetest thing ever. :)

I agree too. Thanks so much. Give hugs to your pups for me. :)
Well I once again wanna thank everyone for all the good wishes. And I wanted to tell ya that my dad and I went camping over the weekend. We put pics together and spent the evening making a scrapbook and telling funny stories about Bruno and all our other dogs we've had over the years. It felt good and really eased a lot of the pain. It's still very hard to walk past the back door without thinking I hear him, and I have yet to move his dog bed from the room. But I am healing.So thanks :) love you all.
Just need a cheering up. Maybe I'll go have some chocolate ice cream. Thanks for "listening" my COL friends.
I'll be my sunshiney self soon enough, just needed to vent a bit.
