Three Ex's and a Wannabee

Wife #1 is second from the right.  Wife #2 is far left.  Wife #3 is far right.  The blond (second from left) is/was a wife wannabee who did not make the cut.  

I love every one of these ladies!
My brother loved and lost.  
He loved again, and lost.  
After losing one more time he decided to hang it 
up and get a dog.  

Jimmy and his Koda were inseparable up until Jimmy took his last breath.    


 Jimmy's Memorial service/life celebration was Saturday.


It was beautiful.  All the ex's were there, paying respect to a man whom they once loved as a husband and always loved as a friend.

Go Snow, Go! by Gracie Phillip


Snow be gone, go away,
Never come again, I say.

I can't go walk, nor even pee,
And snow, you're all I ever see.


So go away, with you I'm done,
I'm ready for blue skies and sun.

Life Goes On

These last months have been really tough ones.  I am working on getting back to routine.  I miss blogging.  I miss my friends here.  I feel out of the loop.  I need to catch up and regroup.  

On Saturday:  We will be having my brothers memorial service to celebrate his life.  I will have a contentment in leaving this behind me afterwards.  I really miss him and it is hard to accept that he is gone.  

But, life goes on...  And I am grateful for the many wonderful people, family and friends who are in my life.  



Dear Diary,

It was a normal day.  Four thirty pee emm came and I was happy.  You see, five o'clock pee emm is when my food bowl gets filled.   I thought...  I'll bet chickie bird is on the menu tonight.  I licked my lips.  My belly growled saying feed me.  And then, Dad puts my harness on.  Mom looks at me with an evil grin and says, "you're going to get groomed." 

Say what?  

And now you know the rest of the story.  Gracie.
