Hope you are doing okay, Anjanet. I know you are still and will be grieving for some time. Are you doing anything to commemorate your pup's life? All my dogs (and my first, sweet goat) have been cremated and put into urns with their photos on the front. A past pet sitter said he thought it was creepy to see them all lined up; I think it's comforting.
Today, I am off to a community Halloween party, which is always held the first Saturday after Halloween in my hometown. My sister and brother-in-law rent a community hall, decorate it to the hilt, hire a band, prepare a buffet (they own a grocery store and do catering) and award prizes for costumes.
Because of COVID, this is the first time they've held the party since 2019. I'm a little nervous because too many folks down there don't seem worried about getting sick -- although many of them have; my costume will include a hand-beaded mask.
It will be the first time I've been back home since I stayed there overnight last year when Jim was in hospice. A good friend is staying at my house to care for the menagerie.
The weather has definitely turned cooler; I'm hoping the predicted precipitation will be rain and not snow. Not Yet!
