How I am feeling now

Zzzzz!

Yum!

The adage that we don't see change in things / people we see daily is so true.

I Spy

Lilac & Buddah



She crouches when she sees his image on the screen and hasn't quite figured out what to do about him. She knows he's not a physical presence, but still fears him.

Lilac continues raising hell as she has her way with EVERYTHING. Nothing is safe from her!

She sits beside me playing in a plastic bag kicking, biting and wiggling without a care in the world. I'm wondering if she feels Buddah's presence?

It's here...

...vacation's finally arrived and I am ready. It's hard working year round while co-workers take time off, return and I'm still there. The flip side is that it's great to be away from the office for a chunk of time. There's nothing like completely clearing my head to help me gain perspective, etc.

Of course, this vacation is much different because I do not have my boy Buddah with me. This is the first vacation in fifteen years that I'm spending without him and I do miss him terribly. I miss him so much it hurts. I try to stay busy but it honestly doesn't help much. Every room of this house holds his memory.

We'll see what the Lord brings, right?

Buddah the Computer Cat

...keeping me company as I view video podcasts and relax. Obviously, he doesn't find it as intriguing as I do, he's always been a finicky a little guy and bit particular!

Little Girl

It is said that there is a time and a season for everything.

We lost Little Girl in December 2005 and found her quite by accident in June 2006. She's been with us since failing health and all.

I kept praying to God when she left us in December 2005 to at least let me know what had become of her. The uncertainty was just eating me up.

I promised Him that if He would just let me know what had happened I would be content and let go. Well God answered my prayer and brought her back. He gave us time with her and now it was time for me to uphold my part of the agreement.

We have let Little Girl go and she is at peace.
