I finally got some sleep today, 5AM to 2PM.
I hadn't slept strange hours like that since I retired (shift work there).
It's been a very mean week, not just for me but the entire family. The dog we lost was a super star among dogs.
Very intelligent and loving. You could literally take a piece of steak away from her and she wouldn't get angry, she'd just look up wondering why you did that.
She started out with a police record, the cops found her tied to a parking meter in a nearby town.
I've always appreciated the fact that whoever abandoned her left her there instead of hurting her. The next 13 years she had a great home full of loving people.

The dirt on a couple logging roads up above my M in law's house turns into dust like talcum powder, it hangs in the air for hours and all the trees look red around there.

That's what these were, logging trails on county land. There's miles of them open to the public up here but I think next time we'll wait till after a good rain. I still have shit in my eyes.

Sorry, I know how much that hurts, we lost our last one after 14 years in Jan, now we have a new psycho in the house from the pound.

If only we could trade years of life, might not live as long but we might be happier.
Sadly, they live a lot faster than we do. Speaking of that, how's the pug doing? I saw a cute show about a pug on Netflix, Patrick.

Real good, growing too fast but at least becoming lazier. He was tiring me out to begin with.

I've owned my last dog. Losing the last one literally put me down for days. I just couldn't get up. It was a new low for me and put me in a dark place. I cannot do that again. Just the thought of having a new dog puts me in panic mode. I appreciate all the dogs I meet but i can't allow myself to get that way again. I had to swear off dogs. I envy you guys terribly...

I hope @tangerinegreen555 doesn’t mind that i do this. But this is something I just texted him a few minutes ago about what i just went through
Life is fucking bullshit because of these things!
Bella died in bed next to me a couple months ago. That on top of what I have been going through with the fire, i fricken cried like i've never cried as a man.
I'm prob gonna wait to get another puppy, which will help, until Rex passes. Not looking forward to that fact. In fact i'm stressed out over that more than anything else going in.
Anyways, again, sorry for your loss bro.

We'll get through it.
Just like we always do.
That doesn't mean it will be easy but we'll get through it.

Yeah, I'm saying, "Get another dog..." But that's how I deal with it. I rescue in the name of the loved one's I've lost which ameliorates the pain (a little). But that's me. We are all in different places, with different ways. However you get through.I hope @tangerinegreen555 doesn’t mind that i do this.

This one needs a companion. We love him but he's not the smartest dog ever.
The other one was his leader. And he keeps looking around for her everywhere.
It may be the most heartbreaking thing about all this.
The challenged child you can't sit down and break the facts of life to, damn
