So much has happened in the last month. I have been a bad person not keeping up with my blog posts on here. Let me explain what all has come to pass in the past few weeks.
Life is unrelenting and finite and we spend too much time feeling guilty or afraid to truly live it.
I was just going in February and March between going to Dallas Stars games, staying with a friend in Garland [saying that always makes me think of Zombieland], going with some friends to Shreveport, and taking a friend or two to the airport in DFW area… then I started visiting my grandmother almost everyday. She wasn’t doing well and her health declined very quickly. She passed away on April 9th early in the morning… I lost my best friend. My grandmother ment so much to me. We spent so much time together just talking, playing games, knitting, I would play my guitar for her, and all other kinds of stuff. We always had fun no matter what. I’m still emotional at times. The first few days were SO hard. I felt like I was just going through the motions and trying to function normally. I was so depressed I came up with the idea to get a puppy.
Name is Rocco / He's a Manchester Terrier
I felt I needed to get something that relied on me… I needed purpose. I suffer from depression normally but this sadness I felt was like a black hole. I searched until I found my little buddy! I went and got him last weekend from a shelter somewhat of a drive from where I live. He is so cute, full of life, and for the most part brings me lots of joy!
Until he decided to chew up the bottom plastic in his crate. I took that out because he destroyed it. Then he took to tearing holes out of the carpet. I was in shock, upset, and anxious he will tear up more things. I have a solution for the time being but am still working stuff out. A friend sent me this appropriate meme… [see below]
SO now I am busy training a puppy, working at a law firm [totally love my job], getting my new SUV all hairy [thanks to Rocco], and just living life. I will always miss my grandmother. But I can remember the good times we had and enjoy life. That’s what she would have wanted…
