Today/last night is the worst day.

A year ago, I lost my beloved kitty Olive, and I know she was just a cat, but not a day goes by still that I don't think of her and miss her and hurt over how she died. When I started pulling out my summer stuff to wear there was still her fur on a lot of things, and I occasionally find the little toys she buried in odd places around the house.

And it's five years ago that we lost Sandy, and I still miss her so much it aches and her laugh and her sense of humor. I was vidding a lot the last few months, and I kept trying to hear the Snady voice in my head reminding me of things, and just wishing I could hear the real voice.

I know I never seem to post much here these days except sadness and fic announcements. I guess that's a fairly good summary of my life lately. There doesn't seem to be a lot in between, but I keep hoping to do better, and be more active.

A pet is a member of your family, never "just" anything. *HUGS* I know just what you mean about the gift that keeps on giving that is fur. I still need to take my minivan to be detailed, and it's been almost a year since my dog died.

I wish I had started coming to VVC earlier, because I never got the chance to meet Sandy. She seems like an amazing friend and person to have known.

//offers MANY hugs

An animal companion is never 'just' anything, IMHO.

Still listening, dear.

Oh, honey, I am so sorry for your losses. There is no "just" when it comes to grief -- I miss my sweet kitten terribly. (See usericon.)

Sending love your way. See you next month yay.

I remember your post about poor Olive. I'm sure she wouldn't want you to be sad, but it's so hard to lose a friend in such circumstances.
