Hard to let go

 We had tears this morning after Poppy read a message on my phone to her teacher from nearly 2 years ago advising that it was time for Harvey to go and to be aware that Poppy may well not cope today!! Poppy cannot let Harvey go and still cries when she talks about him and I am just as bad ( in tears as I write this) I really do not know what to say to her to console her, i’ve tried all the usual stuff and how we now have room for Violet in our lives so thats another soul rescued but it doesn’t seem to make any difference sadly!! I think I need to talk to someone again as I cannot escape this low, maybe I’m colouring Poppy’s view of the world! I do hope not!!

Still Sippery

 Just read my last post and it could have been written about today!! Not a good day head wise even though the sunshine is glorious! Tolerance levels are at an all time low and to be honest I’m not sure where to go from here? It is the longest spell of negativity I think I have ever experienced and the lowest I’ve felt for years… I think I need to hit the pause button and step off the world for a bit but how the hell do you do that when you have responsibilities?? 

If I’m honest the only thing keeping me moving at the moment is my gorgeous daughter and my partner, without them I’m not sure I would have enough courage to carry on and to top it all I’m really missing my old hound Harvey who will have been gone for 2 years soon 🐶♥️😢
