six months already.oh dear.hugs from luxembourg.

Oh' Cheryl, he will be always in our mind....

as you know I stop in here from time to time, a few times a week, but not like I did for years.... last year I figured out I was spending about 3 hours out of everyday commenting... ....I remember seeing pictures of Bill and you two going to vegas and seeing Rene and Ute.... Bills been gone 6 months? I'm afraid to ask.... I'm sorry. How's your 3 legged doggie? I have 4 dogs now - lol.... You've seen pictures of my min pins - Bouncer and Booty... well last September, a year ago, she had puppies, they were adopted.... we were going to get her fixed because it was to rough on her and she's partly blind now.... well, didn't get her fixed fast enough... she had 3 pups, two male, one female.... the males we adopted and the girl we decided to keep and name her Corona (we got a bar theme going on with the names of the dogs)... two weeks after one of the males being adopted, the people couldn't handle having a dog - never had one before..... so, I took him back... when I went to get him he was in a car, in the parkinglot, behind their restaurant.... with all the windows down laying perfectly flat in the back seat on his side, staring at the door panel... I poked my head in and saw him laying there and said softly "Buddy" (that's his name, Budweiser).... he didn't flince he looked like he was in a coma, I said his name again and this time he moved so fast I didn't even see him, he jumped at my face, wrapped his front legs around my neck tight and would not stop licking me for over 5 minutes.... when I looked in the car, I saw a bowl of pasta and black beans - that's what they were feeding him.... they had paid me $300 for him but after seeing his condition, I didn't even want to see or talk to them - and, I told them I'd take him back but never told them they'd get their money back.... I brought him home and held him over the kitchen gate so he could see his Mom, Dad and Sister.... then I took him straight to the bath tub.... I put him in the kitchen and they were all so happy... I realized, I had to keep him.... I was not going to let a good dog be treated like crap... I also felt if he did go to a new home, he'd constantly be waiting for me.... so, I got 4 dogs.... and yes, they are all fixed now - lol..... time is funny.... when I lost my Mom in February of 2001, I found myself in November 2001 dialing her whole number to tell her turkeys were on sale - almost a year later.... it takes time.... Try not to label yourself depressed - it makes it worse.... keep your mind busy, create projects, set goals.... and at night if you want to spend laying in bed thinking of Bill, that would be the best time.... Dreamland is a fun place for me, I rarely have "bad" dreams... sometimes I feel like I've been in dreamland for a week when I was only there four or five hours.... If you find yourself longing too much for Bill, you'll find him in dreamland - look.... Crazy, but when I know I've had a dream and if I really consintrate and can remember bits and pieces, my Mom is ALWAYS there.... So don't feel alone... spend your time with him in dreamland and when you're in reality, kick ass... get things done, stay busy, enjoy your life....

Hey Cheryl, this is a wonderful image. I know that you're going through. Take care of yourself - remember that you have friends here on Rendo. Be strong m'lady

jolie image!! courage

Cheryl, you did a marvelous job on this lovely presentation. You are always in my thoughts and prayers my friend.

Wonderfully done .

Lovely image Cheryl. Is it 6 months already. I am sure it is very hard for you. Hope you get to see the family regularly. Take care. xxxxx

this is wonderful

So sorry Cheryl, I had no idea you had lost someone so close to you. This is lovely work and please accept my apologies for not realising anything was wrong. I have been recovering from a bad fall I had and have probably missed the plot entirely!

there is peace in this image; it's very calming and serene. I wish you peace, take care.

I love the Ying and Yang symbol for Bill.
