Yesterday, Rocky was out on the deck while I mowed the lawn...and talked to him out loud about Dinah. My neighbors must think I'm nuts. In just under six weeks, I've become The Crazy Dog Lady of the trailer park.
Tomorrow, I'm headed to Colorado to spread some of Dinah's ashes with the person who gave her to me. I think it will bring some much-needed closure, but mostly I am looking forward to getting a hug from someone who knows me -- and knew her.
So, I'm still going to be spotty on blogging/commenting...I hope to be back to full power next week.

Hi, a interesting blog - I wish you a great marathon!
Have a safe trip - I hope it makes you feel a bit better!
Safe travels!
I have always talked to animals out loud. (Hence the sudden quiet when I found myself without four legged friends.) If my neighbours think I'm nuts, they try not to show it! ;-)
We'll be thinking of you.
Hi Krissy! Say hi to Meg for me and give her a big hug. I know you won't have time to say hi out here but you will be in my thoughts! A really big hug to you!
Ahh nothing like a blood and guts and boom flick to take the woes away
Okay, so it's WAAAAAAY better to be the crazy dog lady than it is to be the crazy cat lady. Everyone knows that. :)
You're doing great, you'll be back in the swing before you know it!
Nothing wrong with being the crazy dog lady if it gets you through. Being with someone who knows you and loves you is pretty important too - I'm all for fresh starts but sometimes you just need to be with a friend!
Crazy dog lady of the trailer park. Huh. Now all you need is a screaming guest spot on "Cops."
