Grieving the Loss of a Family Member

This week has been rough!  We have been exhausted since our vacation and the time change.  And today, we found my dog of 13 years died after being hit by a car.  (She constantly dug out of the yard)

For 13 years, Sydney was my companion, friend, protector, and daughter.

I feel sad, guilty and totally unmotivated in my grief.

As a single girl in Houston, the love and loyalty of my dogs became the standard I held for a potential mate.

  • Happy to see me when I walked in the door no matter how long I’d been shopping
  • Look at me adoringly, waiting for my next command
  • Drink my bath water…

I was single for a very long time!!!  (I finally decided to set more reasonable standards for a husband)

This weekend is full of tasks that I hope to have the motivation to complete, including blog posts.

Right now, we are just trying to decide how to deal with her remains.
