I feel your sorrow too Judy. It looks like the two of you were of similar age and from what you say like disposition and love of nature and art. I also see a beautiful face and knowing eyes, but then I see how the sickness was wrecking her body, and as the ones of Shirley that I have hidden away because I can not bring my self to look at them, knowing they bring back that sadness.. Is that one of the puppy on the bed taken with Zoe~? I guess the one I like most is the one of the two of you under what looks like a cloths line, because the two of you look so happy and so compatible together… I wish I had known her too, because she, like you, had traveling experience to talk about and must have been an interesting compatible and loving person to know. They are most sad and difficult to loose. I am sad too, not even knowing her except through you.
Last night, or actually early this morning, I had a strange experience: I awoke from what was a very sound sleep, and half awake, I moved my arm to the left (Shirley’s side) of the bed and somehow my muddled half awake mind thought and said out loud: “Shirley is missing”. I called out to her, before I realized that my mind was playing tricks on me and then I realized it.. I then could not get back to sleep, but Tami and both cats always seem to know of my sorrow, and each snuggled up along each side my body, this relaxed me and I could then go back to sleep but with tears in my eyes. I would see or hear the first year or so after I lost her but this is the first time in a long time that this has happened again and it caught me unprepared~!
I was so happy when you got Zoe, I know how much they can do and understand our feelings and being comfort~!. Also it seems that a small dog is just a lot more attentive and snuggley, (at times too much so)~! I see that Zoe is growing lately, I hope she stops soon~!Sa
She really hasn’t grown in the past month. I think she gained a half pound but that is that. I think I told you I saw a dog that looked exactly like her on the malecon. I asked if she was a chiweenie and the owner’s eyes lit up and she said, “Yes!” I thought perhaps in Mexico they should be called Chichicas, but the woman knew at once what I was talking about.
