These are my two water lovers! Corduroy loves the hose and Chispa loves the pool lol! It is so hot this year, we need the water and the fan and still only stay out for 10 minutes at a time. Please stay well and keep your dogs inside the a/c!

Wrote this after Tara passed, it just blows me
Away that its been 8 years…we all still talk about her all the time and i can’t wait to tell little Tara all about her amazing grandma Tara💜

Missing You

I know who you're with and I know where you are
Each night I can't sleep, I look up at the stars.

I wonder about what you're doing out there
If my Cheeto is with you, how this all seems unfair.

My sweet little sister, such a beautiful child
How could you go before me when it was me that was wild?

You were the good one, not perfect by far
But your smile lit our world as bright as a star.

I think of the memories that make me laugh til I cry
And then I go back to just wondering why

Yet I know how it works, we're only here for a time
We choose our own path, our own mountains to climb.

All that stuff makes sense inside of my head
My heart just won't listen to a word that I said.

My heart feels the tears fall from my face to the ground
And it aches in a way thats nothing short of profound.

I think about Mom and how deep her despair
Being strong for others is her burden to bear.

I worry about John, the kids and Renee
I pray they find peace in their own special way.

I find if I talk to you like i still do with Dad
At least for a moment, I let go of my "sad."

I'm grateful we never left anything unsaid
It brings peace to my nights as I lay down my head.

I miss you so much Tara Leigh, wherever your wings fly
Somewhere over that rainbow, way, way up high.

I am posting this to each and every one of you. In every moment of your life, you choose whether you are happy or not. One of the things that i know is that even with the sadness i feel from my personal losses, the repercussions of the pandemic, nasty politics and just the ups and downs, I am happy. I will always be happy because God made me. He/She made me in her likeness which is perfect. I was blessed with free will to make choices so i choose to love, be kind and always be happy. Life here on earth is a crazy maze that never stops twisting and turning. The key is to enjoy all the ways it changes both in direction and circumstance. We will always bring new life in and say goodbye to others. The best part is that no matter what, we are all one so we do come back together again on the other side. And if you believe that after this life, you go to heaven or hell...then pay attention so you aren't surprised when you get there. If like me, you feel life continues and you come back in a new body to continue to enjoy the human experience then make each lifetime the best you can make it! Let your sprit soar back to the light when it is your time and know that another exciting adventure awaits! No matter what each of us believes, we are still connected. In the end...that really makes me happy.

When I decided to become a professional pet sitter, I thought about all the issues that could come up. What I didn’t think about were the losses and the effect it would have on my heart.
I love senior dogs and always look forward to watching them and seeing them perk up around the younger ones. The life I live is a blessing and a joy. But it does mean that I have to adjust and learn to deal with the losses as well.

With that being said, I want to thank you all for the prayers for sweet Cash but he is going to go across the Rainbow Bridge later today. Cash and his sister Molly have only been coming to daycare for several months now but I formed a bond with Cash on contact. Fell head over heals in love with that sweet white Golden Retriever face with some old man white in the middle. He is sweet and gentle and loves to come and play with the others. Cash is only 8.5 yrs old which makes it that much harder. We never want them to leave but when it feels too soon, it just sucks.

I love you Cashy and I will see you again💜🐶😇

To you all!! 2024’is going to be the best year ever!
