Actually, I've always thought the Rainbow Bridge concept was pretty hokey. Sorry, but it sounds like a Hallmark card. I do like the saying "if there aren't dogs in Heaven I don't want to go there," but I don't believe in Heaven, either.

I think simply understanding that the animal is no longer in pain, kept here because we're trying to spare ourselves the heartbreak of losing it, is the best I can hope for for all of us. We have to move past this fear of our heartbreak to spare our pets more pain.

I agree, he may not understand any time soon, but he's smart, and he'll eventually figure it out.

The house is incredibly quiet, especially because over this last year the cat got progressivly noisier with his loud complaining. My nerves need a rest. If you've been jolted awake a couple of times a night by that loud Siamese howl, then you know how hard it is to deal with.

I'm trying to sort out my computer files and get caught up on stuff I lost early in the week. Time flies when you have to announce events, and I lost a couple of days.

We're possibly going to get some snow overnight. I hope not, because I don't want a snow day tomorrow. There is a talent show at school and my son will be joining some friends in a band, and I'd really like to hear them!
