Sad day happy day just another day




5 months ago today: the last sunrise I shared with my little fluff ball Murphy.




I still get bogged down thinking about it, his sad last day, the decision that still makes me sob ugly tears. Heck, I could probably write a book about how be a blubbering mass of wallowing sadness after you have to put your best friend down. (But I'm pretty sure I've read that book. Darned 5th grade and reading Where the Red Fern Grows ahead of everyone else in class so I'm a sobbing mess by the lockers in the back of the room while they're all still on chapter 4.)

But then my day ends with this random text from the BFF, the re-run watching insomniac:
"Mike is going to Boston to save her mothers life. She's going to meet that pretty boy doctor, but eventually realize sully is the man she really loves."

Oh, life. You give us days of unbearable sadness and just when we've been through the wringer, you send a zinger.

Thank you for the gift of laughter through tears, even when both are ridiculous.

Grief is like that, but laughter, especially about silly things, helps so much! Hugs!
