So Much to Do...



There is so much to do and so little time left before I leave on Monday. I know I will get it done in time and be prepared, but it doesn't mean that I'm not a little frantic right now. This is going to be a short post because I wrote this last night, and I wanted to go to sleep and not worry about all the things that I still need to do.

Also, this is a sad day.  Not only is the anniversary of 9/11, but also because a year ago, I lost my precious HRH, my cat Victoria.  I have two wonderful new cats who are just over a year old, but Victoria and I had a special bond.  We'd been together for 16 years, and I still miss her terribly.  Holding her as the life slipped out of her body was one of the most heart-wrenching moments of my life, but she was so very sick and was suffering so much.

It is a very sad anniversary for us all, Joe, and for you for your sweet Victoria. Remember the good times and know her suffering is over and she is in a better place.

What is more to say?

As time goes by, many bad moments and good ones are left behind us...
FUTURE is to come and I hope it'll be as rewarding and your past was.

We all have to morn so many things in our lives and that is what LIFE is made of.

As a great French Canadian poet said:" Death is filled with LIFE in it..."

We are going across so many bridges in our lives that they make us grow better.
The bad bridges and the good ones too....

HOPE in your next future life with those treasures that are your past «lives»..

It is sad, even when putting a cat out of her suffering is the right thing to do.

My condolences on this anniversary.
