    I'm really sorry.

    This is in regards of the 2009 Pet Talk calendars. I have not finished them.

    Although I'm sure most of you know, this year has been horrible for me. I never feel like doing anything anymore. I haven't been inspired for months, for photography, ideas, anything. It shows, especially when I TRY to take pictures latelt. I'm totally slacking in everything. I work a lot lately and have not been myself. I've been incredibly depressed. I shouldn't be like this. Everyone loses people in their life and I need to stop dwelling on it.


    I really hope to get the calendars done in the next couple days. I've taken 4 days off work.

    Honestly, here's to a much better 2009... for all of us. And I'm really, sincerely, sorry.

    I for one understand, and hey it takes everyone different amounts of time to get over loss, and you have two to get over.

    Be gentle with youself, big hugs.

    {{{{{HUGS}}}}} to you , Kay. I know exactly what you mean. In different ways, this year has been awful for me too. I think we all know my knee surgery history. I am glad to see it end and I hope and pray for a better year in 2009.

    Letting go of someone is not easy, Kay. It hasn't been that long. Don't get upset with yourself for not being able to let go just yet. You'll know when it's time. If you need to talk, please PM me anytime. Take care of yourself. I know how you feel.

    Happy New Year to you, the Muttlies, and, your family. Things have got to get better!!

    Thanks Barry!

    So true.

    Kay, you've had an especially bad year of one bad thing right after another. It's going to take time to recover from all this. You haven't even had time to catch up yet. Time does heal all wounds and you will need alot more time to heal.

    Thanks Barry!

    Here's hoping for a much better New Year for you Kay. Don't be too hard on yourself, with the year you had it takes time to get back to your old self or to the new person you will be. {{{hugs}}}

    Sending you big hugs, don't stress about it, okay?

    And remember, you can put PetTalk.com on 'em, as we now own that name and it redirects to Pet Talk!

    Be glad you are at least in Florida, sweetie - I just checked and the temperature right now is 9 degrees, but it "feels like -14!"

    Yes, we do all lose people but some things hit us harder than others. I think that we sometimes put too much emphasis on "getting over it" and we need to take time to heal at our own pace. No, it isn't good to "live there" but we do need time to work through our emotions and see where we go from here. I, for one, didn't give the calendar a thought. Take care of you.
    Blessings,
    Mary

    Dont worry, we aint gonna eat you! Eventually you will get better, that is for sure. Yes everyone loses people in their life, but everyone moruns in their own way, and this is your way. Hope you get to feeling better soon!

    Dear Kay, as I said in my PM, please take whatever time you need to mourn your losses. That pain doesn't go away overnight.

    After all, the calendar will be just as delightful whenever it arrives.. It's the pictures, not the dates, that make it special!

    Deepest sympathy to you and your family, and apologies also if my post about the calendars in Cat General added to your distress.

    And big {{{{{{{{{{HUGS KAY}}}}}}}}}} and warm wishes to you. May 2009 be much better!

    Kay, Don't worry. I understand completely and I'm sure that we'll all enjoy the beautiful calendars whenever they become available. Please take care of yourself and I hope that 2009 is good to you.

    Kay, take your time. I know I'm not worried about the calendars. I can always just switch months back and forth throughout the year. No worries.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    Dearest Kay,
    I know last year was so very hard for you, and I am in no rush. Whenever you do them (or even if you don't) I understand. I just thought I missed the "order" link (because I was not on as much)

    Take YOUR time Kay, healing is not a race. It does take time ..... {{{{hugs}}}} to you.
    M!
