I am dedicating today’s blog to the first dog I had the privilege of bringing into my home. Tomorrow on Christmas Day marks four years since he has passed. My Boomer was my everything and I was heartbroken when he passed. A piece of my heart is still missing. I love actually adore all my dogs but Boomer was special. I never experienced that kind of sadness until he passed. I can still get choked up about it to this…
Last night Minx got in my closet and walked out with one of my shoes. The shoe probably weighed half as much as he did. It made me think of my Marshmallow who used to greet me at the door and would always grab one of my shoes. In my apartment I had steps. we were constantly looking for one of my shoes before I went out. There was always one downstairs and one upstairs. If there were no available…
First I wish everyone a very merry Christmas. Where I am, it’s a white Christmas. I woke up to this… However beautiful today is, it also marks a year since my Boomer passed away. He was my first dog I ever had. It hit me very hard when he passed because I wasn’t expecting it. He waited for me to come home and I was so fortunate to see his last breath leave his body. At the time I didn’t…
My mother and stepdad aren’t animal people. They don’t dislike them but neither of them grew up with animals so they never wanted one. I was only allowed fish when I was younger.

Within a month of me moving into my first apartment I ended up with 2 cats….
During Boomer’s memorial I put his old collar around his urn. He didn’t wear his collar much, he hated his collar, but it had all his tags and it just seemed fitting. I don’t know when I moved to a standard chain as a collar or started using the leash alone as a collar, but I know it was for the majority of his life. We’d only put the chain on him when he’d go out for a walk, otherwise…
Good morning and happy Sunday. I had a very beautiful Course of Miracles lesson today: By grace I live, by grace I am released By grace I give, by grace I will release Today my sister is having a memorial for my deceased dog Boomer. My sister, mom and step dad don’t really love animals. They understand that I love my dogs and they all understood how my heart broke when Boomer died. As my sister said it, my soul…
Well the little puppy makes life coordination much more difficult. Now on school days if I want to workout alarm is set for 5:45. Daughter gets puppy from that time until 6:30. I get 45 minutes to myself to workout, brush teeth, get coffee and pee basically. Then I take puppy so she can finish getting ready for school. Yes I could put her back in her crate, I know that. The reason I don’t is because most of my…
