It’s a little chilly tonight and Rosie should be snuggled up in her blankets waiting for me to cuddle her. I miss that face… Another song we listened to a lot is Somewhere in My Heart by Aztec Camera. There is a part that goes: Somewhere in my heart There is a star that shines for you Silver splits the […]

Rosie loved to ride in the car and she loved music. We listened to a lot of the same songs and one of the ones we listened to most is this one: Fly to the Angels by a band named Slaughter. I would try to hit the high notes and Rosie’s ears would quiver and then she’d give me the […]

I haven’t finalized her local memorial because I’m not ready. However, Peg Banks is collecting all the information for her worldwide memorial and we have folks from South Africa, Greece, Argentina, France, Sweden, the UK, huge chunks of the U.S. and Canada wanting to help. I am so deeply touched and know that if she was in my lap, the […]

I posted this photo to my personal facebook page last night and decided I will share it here because it is the real us…I snapped this myself because Eddie texted me (he’s been working in India since the last week of August) that he missed seeing his girls in the morning.

Sometimes I […]

It’s been a week since our Gabriel passed away. Rosie and I have been busy helping Gabriel’s best friend Charity get through this tough time. It’s also been very hot and windy here – not the kind of weather that is good for Rosie (or me) so today we took advantage of the nicer weather and had a little tail […]

Rosie and I will not be posting much this week. We lost our little friend Gabriel today. He passed in my arms with his head on my chest. Gabriel was one of the happiest dogs I’ve ever known. He came to us after his original family closed a garage door on his back and then let his legs atrophy. When […]

There’s a chill in the air even in Southern CA! So Rosie spent the day lounging on the bed and watching me clean out the closet…

Rosie and I took a drive to see her Aunt Stephanie. She loved getting out and being in the car but she was not thrilled about being indoors. She made her way across the carpet to sit in a ray of sunshine and I could tell she wanted to go out in the yard, so we put one of her […]
