You have all been so kind and understanding, you will never know just how much you mean to me, the support you have shown is truly wonderful and I thank you so very, very much.

Thank you for your visit, hugs to all.

Painful Times

Hi all I wanted to let you know why I have not been posting anything other than my DT work.  

My little dog Polo is not good, he has been suffering for quite a while with his back legs but now his front ones are also affected, which means that he is practically unable to walk.

His mind and looks are just the same, he looks no older, his eyes are bright and alert, so is his mind but his body is being taken over by the age process. 

He is now 16 1/2 yrs of age and I may have to let him go very soon.  It is breaking my heart, I have no will to create any cards or do crafting of any sorts. To be truthful nothing else matters to me at the moment than my Polo, I have battled in my mind and heart, I don't want to let him go, I expect a miracle to happen and that he will be ok but somehow deep down I know that there will be no miracle.

I know that some of my friends in blog land have recently lost their own beloved animals and I know that some of you will understand how I am feeling at this time.

I will be scheduling my DT work and hopefully comment as and when I can.

I will say bye for now, hugs to all.,

My Polo
