Life With Him .. Hopefully we will manage well and look back on these days as something we managed to conquer ..and ended up in a really good place.<br /><br />My dog Tate was named for the Tate Museum in London.<br />I have English ancestors and my husband and I loved that museum .. it just popped into my head one day .. Tate.<br />They say a dogs name should be short and easy for him to recognise .. Tate worked well.<br /><br />Oh boy do I miss him. My two loves are gone and there are just the kitties and I here alone. Is is sad now but we are working on leaving the sadness behind.Notes From ABroadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12202279303962539035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6405235946922980965.post-85127864357011547392016-01-20T13:03:57.337-05:002016-01-20T13:03:57.337-05:00You make me wish I had a cat again.

My husband died almost four months ago so I am going through some of the same things. <br /><br />Three days ago my little Pomeranian evidently fell down the deck steps and injured his back, turning him from a lively happy little dog into a sad little dog who couldn't even walk. Thank goodness, he feels much better today after a visit to the vet and lots of meds. <br />The first two nights were scarey to me without the company of my little dog. Pets are such a support when everything else in your life has changed.<br /><br />I have a daughter ninty miles away and a son 800 miles away. I understand your not wanting to depend on children too much. They are busy with their own lives and it is wonderful to be included sometimes, but I do have my own life and so do you. <br /><br />By the way, my grandmother was from a North Carolina Tate family. Any connection to your Tate? :-)<br />My brother has a beautiful black standard poodle, one of the nicest dogs I have known. I would love to have one, too. <br />SarahoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6405235946922980965.post-57616635372097773502016-01-20T10:32:19.702-05:002016-01-20T10:32:19.702-05:00Thank you Jennifer, I appreciate all the hugs I ca...Thank you Jennifer, I appreciate all the hugs I can get :)Notes From ABroadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12202279303962539035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6405235946922980965.post-11059870483872802572016-01-20T09:53:43.707-05:002016-01-20T09:53:43.707-05:00I just wanted to send you a virtual hug after read...I just wanted to send you a virtual hug after reading this, so......<br /><br />(((HUG)))Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12512800812290518552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6405235946922980965.post-77931245581696633242016-01-20T09:26:42.938-05:002016-01-20T09:26:42.938-05:00Marriette, I am thankful I have children, I know i...Marriette, I am thankful I have children, I know if there is an emergency, they would be there for me.<br />But they have their own lives .<br />But as long as I am still young enough, I will live on my own and not depend on others.. being out of this house in the middle of nowhere will make everything much easier.<br />My husband was almost 20 years older than I ... although that was not why he died.. he died of medical incompetence.<br />Tamago, this morning, I REALLY wished I was a kitty. :)<br />Notes From ABroadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12202279303962539035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6405235946922980965.post-40669172959823674442016-01-20T07:30:47.888-05:002016-01-20T07:30:47.888-05:00I often wish I were kitty, too!

Candice you're such a loving cat mommy - so glad they have you.<br />Your day will come when all will fall into place and you will feel happy like a kid again. Meanwhile get through this winter safely and then perhaps work on moving south for certain - if that's where you really want to be.<br /><br />Sending hugs - MaryMaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11915239653283205065noreply@blogger.com
