It's Been Awhile

It sure has been quite awhile since I last blogged....not since March 19, 2010.  You see, We had a fire that day....9:10 am....destroyed nearly everything.  But material things can be replaced; and over time, they have been.  Couldn't have done it without the generosity of my friends and family. 

But, when I woke up that morning; got ready for the day......I had 4 cats; Kiyoko and Maclennon~9 year old brother and sister, and Maxwell Silver Hammer and Abbey Road; my 1 year old brother and sister.  Kiyoko was my dear, my 7 lbs. of unconditional love.  She had choosen me as her human; and loved me so sweetly, so completely.  I lost her and her brother in that insidious fire......and my grief is still overwhelming.  There isn't a day that I don't think of them, especially Kiyoko; and miss all the "little" things that only she did.  They are over the Rainbow Bridge now; free of all the suffering they went through that day.....but if I could have one wish; it would be to spend just one more day with them so I could say a "proper" goodbye.

Don't know when I'll post again......this was extremely difficult for me.  But it's time to honor them; love Max and Abbey, who survivied.......and our new addition, Jo Jo; who is an absolute delight.
