My father is dying and doesn't have long to live and his wife called me today and left me a nasty message. She has a mean side to her but I have forgiven her because grief brings on stress. I will miss my Daddy very much and I hope he doesn't have to suffer for very much longer.

I don't think I like the month of June very much.

My two dogs are going downhill, I can't get them to eat over the last several days. I am cooking a chicken now so hopefully, I can get them to eat. I cook them hamburger, alternating with chicken, as they refuse to eat dog food any longer.

I realize that with life there comes the process of dying and that part is hard for me as it is for all of us.

I am pretty much over my grief but I can't say I am happy but I am no longer sad.

Peace and Love all,
Smilin

Oh, well, I wouldn't be over my grief. I do like to carry it around for a while.

Sometimes it seems that when something goes wrong, everything else follows. Maybe the dogs sense your stress.

Tomorrow is another day. At least it will be different.

Smilin', so sorry to hear about your dad. You are a good soul to forgive the wife and let her rant.

Sorry to hear about the poochies too. Boy, when it rains, it pours. (like it is here right now.)

I know exactly what you mean about the "grief" is over but you are not happy. Same here. Every day is just the SOSO. I "exist" day to day now.

BIG (((HUGS))) to you once again my friend.

Nameste,
tami

smilin...I'm sorry about your Dad. I hope your dogs start to do better...I don't expect to be "over" my grief for awhile. I know I'll probably keep moving back and forth between all the different stages...Really sorry about your Dad. Please take good care of yourself!
