ANOTHER DAY
We are better again.
Today we brought in the little rose memorial from the spot where we let him go. We may use the vase for his ashes.
So, we are kind of eliminating the memorials and stuff. But I wouldn't let John put furniture over his spot in the sunroom even though his bed is gone.
We had a fit of getting another dog yesterday. A denial mechanism for sure as we were looking at Welsh Terriers, a miniature form of Franklin. NO! My sponsor helped cut me off at the pass although I knew it was BS. Sometimes we call a sponsor to tell us what we already know.
Today, no replacements to block the feelings.
Odd that we thought he was holding us together and without him we are closer than ever. Funny about love, huh? Both kinds. Doggy and human.
We are resuming our walks after supper together...the ones we were having before he came to be with us. For a few days there we were walking alone AM and PM as though he were still here. He is not. We are. Nice to be back on the road together.
John took this picture on the last morning. One of his favorite spots. Typically on watch out front. Posing, I am sure, even though he is not looking at the camera.
