Mandy's gone...

I thought I was doing so good. While getting out the Christmas decorations, your stocking with your name on it didn't bother me so much. But tonight when I took out your ornament with your name on it, well, all I can say is this Christmas is going to be hard.

I was doing pretty good myself, but~ among the decorations that I carefully stored from Christmas 2005, was a felt scarf given to Foxy Jean~ It was neatly placed within a zip-loc bag~ and her HAIR was still clinging to it~ What a Blessing

I knew Foxy Jean was not doing well, but I muscled up the courage to take a photo of her, wearing it, and sent it back to my daughter as soon at" it " arrived in the mail.

She looked up at me, while I snapped the camera~ and now, on Pet Talk, I have the " Sacred Blessing "of *Sharing* that Last Photo of her, with you.


This Christmas Holds Such Tenderness for me~( although, Bittersweet)


As though I can smell a Rose during Winter~

Just Hold onto me, My Friends~( This reply was a wee bit difficult, but necessary)
