It seems I’ve been the bearer of bad news lately, and the last thing I want to do is be a downer to you, my good and faithful friends.
On Monday afternoon, I bid good-bye to my last indoor pet, my kitty, Jitterbug. Her diabetes seemed to be under control, but then she went into kidney failure and it was all downhill from there. She’s at peace now, probably chasing around the green, green grass of Home with Sadie-beagle, ChaCha, Jitterbug’s sister, and sweet Bernicie, the Yorkie I lost last month. I’m grateful for every moment I shared with all four of my sweethearts, and that I was able to share the final, sacred moments with each of them in their turn.
I have more cheerful things to tell you, but I’ll save those for next week.
Due to all that’s been going on, there was no contest either last week or this one, but starting on Monday, there will be a brand new one up and running. All you have to do is comment, and you’re entered. Two winners will be chosen at random, notified by Jenni, and announced on the blog the following Monday. (Wow. That sounded pretty convoluted, didn’t it?)
I’m all right, so don’t be fretting about me.
God bless.
