Leftovers

I had a dream last night about Robbie.

I was walking up the street at our old home town toward our old house. Robbie came running down the road barking. He ran up to me panting and I knelt down to pet him and noticed he had a foxtail in the fur of his foreleg. I pulled it out and we headed up the road together.

It was such a nice dream. He was healthy and happy, and strong.

A little gift from God. That's what I think of this dream.

I haven't done a lot today. I was going to work on my novel, but just didn't have the heart for it. I am hoping tomorrow will be better.
I find myself getting up from a chair or entering a room and looking around to see where Robbie is. And when I ate lunch, I automatically left the last few bites to give to him. But he wasn't there.

I couldn't eat them. They belong to Robbie you see.

It was our little agreement. . . Give the last bits to the good looking Sheltie.

What am I going to do with them now?

It's those little things that get to me.

Sigh.

Tomorrow is another day.

It will take some getting used to. Hope it's not too difficult for you. A big hug for you, too. ;-)

A big hug from me too, I hope your dreams of Robbie at his healthiest will give you some measure of comfort and peace. I wish you a Happy Hannukah, I've just been educating myself about the celebration and wow inspirational stuff we Scots would be proud to lay claim to the Maccabees!

I hope all your New Year's wishes come true and thanks for the comments as always you make my day a little brighter.
