There is always so much going on in Casa Chaos, it is sometimes difficult to keep track of the days. However, the 17th June was looming, there was no avoiding it I couldn't sleep through this day and wake up on the other side. There will be very few people that remember, or even care why this day is a sad day for me.
A year ago one of my closest friends died, he was there for me every day, he helped to watch over my children, listened when I had problems, and helped to dry my tears when I cried. Sam was no ordinary dog, he was a huge part of our family.
Sam is buried on Casa Chaos land ssssshhhhh yes we all know this is not allowed, however, who was going to stop me. Burying him here allows me to walk past him every day, stop and talk to him when I am sad, and remember the good times.
The rational side of me knows he was only a dog, OMG how could I say that Sam was one of us! So, today is a sad day as I think about how much we all miss him, but know he is in a place with endless bones where he can run free and never get old <3<3
He wasn't only a dog - he was a part of your life and family - oh why do they leave such a big hole in our hearts when they go? But don't worry - he'll be in great company - it's nearly five years since our Hamish went over the rainbow bridge and I still think about him. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteAwww thank you Sue, they say it gets easier, what do they know! x
ReplyDeleteAs you know, I have been , and still am till later today, in London and every time I go to London I go to the park where the ashes of 5 of my dogs are and say hello to them, so I know how you feel about Sam. Its just something I have to do ! I scattered the ashes of Lily, a foster dog, last year too.cos she was special.
