Kelly, I just had my first good cry in years. Thank you, I needed that. I have said good-bye to sooo many glorious elders, my mom, mother-in-law, aunt & uncle, the family members of friends, and the glorious furbeings I've grown to love through their marvelous humans who post on these pages. I have been so numb since mom passed last July 13 (2001), I was a little worried about me.
I am now hugging and brushing and nuzzling the heck out of Grasshopper. And thinking of Liz, and Lut . . .
That is a keeper, as Dadcat would say.
Thank you, Kelly, I wish you enough, too!
