Life goes on

You may have guessed that last week's brief hiatus was because we wanted to focus on Mr Tucker during his last days, and take time to adjust to his absence.


Yeah...adjusting to his absence is going to take awhile.

It helps to have the NCAA Tournament to focus on this past weekend and over the next couple of weeks.  And Dancing with the Stars returns tonight.


DWTS returns tonight!


So life goes on.  The cycle of grief will proceed.  This spring and summer we'll be able to take off on a whim for an overnight adventure without worrying about who is going to look in on Mr Tucker for us.  In July we'll travel to Arizona to see the folks in their new place without concern over leaving him alone for a week.

My blog pal Jennifer from Dust Bunny Hostage had a reference on her blog to World Vets.  They provide aid for at risk animals around the world.  We made a donation in Mr Tucker's memory.

There will come a day some time in the future when we'll realize it's time to let a new little spook into our lives.  Or perhaps two little spooks.  It or they won't replace Mr Tucker.  You don't replace a loved one.


But you can fill the void.

Life goes on.
