“Say goodnight, not goodbye . . .

…  you will never leave my heart behind.  Like the path of a star, I’ll be anywhere you are.”  ~  (lyrics borrowed from a song by Beth Nielsen Chapman).

My beautiful friend, ‘Belly’, who never liked her photograph being taken, but put up with it just for me.  Thank you Belle.

It’s been quiet here on the blog for a few, short weeks and I’m here to explain.  I had to say goodbye to my loved, beautiful dog and constant friend,  Mabel.  Some of you might remember me mentioning she’d been poorly and I’d been back and forth to the vet.  Mabel was 14 and a half years old and I couldn’t bear to watch her suffer any longer.  I had to make the hardest decision that a dog owner ever has to make, and said goodnight to her three and a half weeks ago.

I couldn’t type details before today as I couldn’t seem to find the right words.  Nothing explained the pain of my loss, and still doesn’t now, but I realised I needed to share where I was and why I wasn’t blogging.  My heartfelt thanks for the loving messages I’ve received asking where I am.  You have lifted my heart knowing that you care.

Thank you for coming today. I promise my next blog post will be a happier, crafting for Christmas, post.

Sending my love to you, as always.
