Weekly Recap
It’s been a long week you guys, especially Monday when we finally said goodbye to our long time family friend, our dog Porter. It wasn’t easy as for the most of Monday we spent waiting for the Vet to come to the house on pins and needles and we ended up having a hick up with the Vet’s office and despite the Vet’s being nice, their receptionist is something to be desired. It’s still hard for me to write this even a few days later without tearing up. His presence was greatly felt and his absence is greatly missed. We explained to out three year old that Porter was not coming back, but every other day he keeps asking me when is Porter coming back and it’s absolutely heartbreaking. I am still having days where I think he is at the house and when the realization hit that he is no longer sleeping on the couch or that I no longer need to feed him hit, it hurts a ton.
I had a doctor appointment and so far they don’t 100% sure what is wrong with me, so we will see what happens at the follow up. At the moment I have a gallbladder issue and possibly an ulcer, neither of which are fun so I have been placed on a low fat diet.
I managed to finish 9 books this month which is surprising, especially with 3 weeks out of this month being such a mess.

I’m so sorry about your dog! Pets really do become a part of the family.
I’m so sorry you lost your fur baby. When I lost my dog of 13 years I read the Rainbow Bridge poem, it helps a little. Thinking of you.
I’m teary-eyed just thinking about the loss of your family pet and your words about forgetting that I don’t have the feeding and don’t have to let him outside. Ah, and the issues with your innards and special diet, too. Wishing you well, book friend.
Oh, I’m so sorry about your loss. Our furry friends are a part of our family and they leave a hole when they are gone. I still swear I hear one of my dog’s toenails clicking on the floor as she comes to greet me.
I’m so sorry to hear about your dog. 🙁
I’m so sorry to hear about your dog! Mine is getting older, and I just dread the day she won’t be around anymore. She’s truly my baby. 🙁
I’m sorry you’re having some health issues too. I had my gallbladder out last August, so if that does happen, know that it’s a quick surgery and nothing to be nervous about!!

You’ll Miss Me and The Naturals both look good.

I’m so sorry for your loss, Lily. My heart breaks for your little guy who is still looking for Porter 🙁
So very sorry about Porter. *hugs*
I’m so sorry for your loss. We lost one of our dogs last November and my 4YO still asks about it all the time. 🙁
So sorry to hear about Porter. 🙁 And about the health issues. I hope they’re able to pinpoint the problem soon. I’ve never Read anything by Giffin but I’ve seen some goo reviews for All We Ever Wanted.
Oh, hon … I’m so sorry. Take care of yourself. *hugs*
I am so sorry to hear about Porter. I know that must have been heartbreaking for you. And then with your health issues on top of it. I hope the doctor is able to figure out exactly what is wrong so you can be treated. Your new books all look so good. I am particularly interested in The Mermaid. It sounds like it will be good. I hope you have a much better weekend and week this week! Sending good thoughts your way.
