The #1 song on the day I was born was

Joy to the World by Three Dog Night

I love 70's Music, and this is one of my fav's! What was the #1 song on the day you were born?

Update on Benny

I just learned that Dr. Mills told Brady that it was evident to her that Benny's body was beginning to shut down. She said that the muscle deterioration and the potty issues were signs that things weren't good for the little guy! I am feeling much better after hearing this, because I know that I didn't make a mistake! If Dr. Mills was confident I made a good choice, I can be OK with it!

Benny's Journey

Benny, I can sense that you're weary;

Grown tired of pain and strife.

And I'm certain as stars in the Heavens-

That you've come to the crossroads of life.

Benny, you must know that I love you...

And this moment for me is so hard.

But I swear to let go of you gently;

As I offer this prayer up to God:

Dearest Lord, you will see that he's fragile;

But so charming if given a chance.

He will follow your steps like a shadow-

And he doesn't just walk... he will PRANCE!

He has never been much for playing;

Maybe a game of tag now and then.

Yet he will curl up next to you in a heartbeat-

And beg for table scraps, that’s my Ben-Ben!

This little Dog is as tough as they come;

but I know he is scared & feeling alone.

Please pick him up and hold him tight,
And let him know that I’m all right!

Tribute to My Benny

I sent my little buddy to heaven today. It makes me so sad! I have had him since July of 1996 and life won't be the same without him. He was old and failing and I made the choice to end the pain and suffering he was experiencing. I knew it was time, when touching his frail little body made him cry out in pain. I stroked his little neck this morning when I got home from work and he cried out and ran and hid from me. I had hurt him in a tender touch, and I refused to allow that to continue to happen. Jaxon, Benny, Cheyenne and I all went up for a nap, and when we woke, I called Dr. Mills. She came to the house and compassionately administered a medication that put him into a deep sleep. It was the same medicine used to anesthesize animals prior to surgery. After that she stopped his little heart. The first medication was supposed to be given IM, but the little guy didn't even have enough muscle to inject the medicine into, so she had to inject into the small amount of subcutaneous tissue in his back leg. He went peacefully at home in our kitchen. I didn't have to take him to a vet clinic, so it wasn't as scarey for him as it could have been.

Benny has been there for me for almost 11 years. He was there when I hurt and was always good for a snuggle during a rough time. Cheyenne & Benny were my family for so many years, and got me through some really rough times. I hate that he is gone, but I know that keeping him here would not have been fair. Goodbye, Little Buddy! You are missed and will be in my heart forever!

Let It Snow!

.

Our weather forecast is for ice & snow. I really, really want snow, and lots of it! I could do without the ice that is forecast for Saturday, but I am really hoping for snow! I want to go sledding, and if I had lots of snow and lots of time, would have to build a couple of Calvin & Hobbes style snowmen! What do you like to do in the snow??
