I like the happy fall post by Butterfly Girl. Last October we still had Levi and Old Fella even though Levi's time was short we didn't know it at the time. We were looking forward to our annual gathering with the kids in the Smokey Mountains. I remember the fall colors were beautiful and I also noticed Levi wasn't his usual self. He seemed tired all the time but his appetite was good and he did seem to be happy, but he tired easily. He wasn't a complainer anyway so it was hard to know what was going on with him. Then two weeks later it hit us that he was really in pain and having problems. That is when we found out about the cancer.
It was the next June we lost Old Fella. Charlie came into our lives soon after and made the pain easier to live wit and then came Peaches who also brought us comfort along with Suzie's ability to make us laugh. As we look forward to the holiday season that will soon be here I think how blessed we are. Old Fella and Levi brought us such joy as they became soul mates and bonded together. Fella missed Levi a great deal and at first would go to his bed at night to see if Levi would be there. He often would lie down on Levi's bed to sleep, but after a while he stopped that and went back to his own bed. Suzie then took Levi's bed and that seemed to satisfy Fella.
This weekend we will celebrate Sue’s birthday. It was supposed to be a surprise but I ruined that when I refused to go to Greenville because if a commitment I had made. So they had to tell me what was going on and soon Sue found out. But anyway we will be going to Camp Dixie this coming weekend to celebrate Sue’s birthday and we will be taking Charlie, Peaches and Suzie with us. This will be Charlie and Peaches’ first trip to Camp Dixie so I hope they enjoy the woods and the pond.
Okay I am tired and I think I will take a break as I have been busy all day with putting signs out and talking with people. So everyone have a blest evening and I will talk with you later.
