Alex is not amused by the construction going on in the house. πππ·

He was curious about what was going on in the kitchen. π±ππΉπ·

He’s taken to falling asleep in front of the bathroom door…and then when we try to open / close it, he glares. πΉππ·

πΈ September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 27: Embrace
He didnβt want to wake up,
so he was hiding his face,
in a sweet little self-embrace.

πΈ September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 26: Beverage
I was never sure if Russell was after the cheese or the mulled wine but I know he was hoping we’d walk away at some point; he made a habit of stealing unguarded food. π·π§πΆπ€£ #mbsept

πΈ September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 3: Precious
Sadly, our little puppy-rabbit crossed the rainbow bridge back in February but this little fur-ball is still with us, eating us out of house and home, puking all his food up, and wailing plaintively to go outside. πΈ #mbsept

I still wake up every day, missing Russell, hoping it was just a bad dream…only for reality to come crashing down on me. ππΆ I’m so grateful to all the friends who’ve been there for me, trying to offer comfort and companionship; I’m truly blessed. β€οΈ

I keep looking up, expecting Russell to be on the couch or in his nest of blankets. I keep expecting to hear the clatter of his nails on the kitchen floor. I keep expecting to hear him woof and growl at the slamming of a car door. I keep expecting him to greet me @ the door. ππΆ

“How did that annoying little creature worm his way so deep into our hearts?" - me asking my Partner between breakdowns today ππΆ

Nobody tells you how much this hurts…or maybe they did and I just didn’t realize? I’ve never lost a pet as an adult; it’s been less than 12 hours and I feel like it’s been an eternity. I don’t know what I’m going to do without Russell, the world just feels so…empty. ππΆ

Goodbye Russell
We said goodbye to our boy today. He drifted across the rainbow bridge full of all his favorite foods (ham, meatballs, & pΓ’tΓ©), nestled between us on the couch (it was his favorite place to be). Iβm going to miss you, my little puppy-rabbit, Iβm going to miss you. ππΆπ
Russell, resting on a pillow
I’m reminded of my favorite song from my favorite musical:
I’ve heard it said,
That people come into our lives,
For a reason.
Bringing something we must learn.
And we are lead to those,
Who help us most to grow if we let them.
And we help them in return.
Well I don’t know if I believe that’s true.
But I know I’m who I am today,
Because I knew you.
…..
Who can say if I’ve been changed for the better.
I do believe I have been changed for the better.
…..
Because I knew you,
I have been changed
For good.…Of course, in my head, I’m changing out “people” with “dogs” but you get the idea…
Goodbye my little friend, I’m going to miss you…until we (hopefully) meet again. Thank you for letting me be your Human. ππΆ
