Once again, my blog has gathered quite a bit of digital dust. I didn’t get around to posting about Halloween or Thanksgiving or even any Christmas related things, or the projects in between. I’ve been busy with work and life and the blog is the easiest item to put on the back burner. I feel the need to post, as a big part of my blog is no longer here.
Last week, we had to say goodbye to Jackson. Over the summer he developed a limp, and since then there was a steady decline and increasing pain. To say we are heartbroken and crushed is putting it mildly. We took care of him since he was a puppy, only 7 weeks old. He was always by my side, had a perfect head / face for modeling the handknits and was easily bribed to sit still for many a project photo.
I met so many fiber folks through this little dog. People might not know me, but they noticed his picture. He was a wonderful part of our family, and it’s not the same to not have him here.
Hug your pets, give them extra ear scratches and belly rubs.
I’m so sorry. *hug* It’s so hard saying goodbye to a family pet.
So sorry for your loss. He was a gem.
Oh Becca, I’m so very sorry for your loss. Jackson was such a cutie pie, and he had an awesome life with you and your family. I hope you guys are doing okay.
