Hello all, just wanted to post an update to Xena's thread.
I got her urn on Thursday night......it is truly a work of art!! I'm so very happy with my decision on how to memorialize her, I don't think anything else would've sufficed. The laser etching of her portrait looks SOOO good! And the poem on the back is written so beautifully. I lit the candles again (One on either side) and let them burn all evening.............
So at this point I've watched most of the videos I have of her.....I am SOOO glad I took so many!!
To be able to sit back & watch her grow from a cute little puppy into a giant noble beast has really been a treat!!
I forgot how small she was! My cat was bigger than her......at first. But that quickly changed over the course of the 5-tapes I have of her!
I also forgot how active she used to be....jumping up off the ground like a maniac, running around the house in her little 'Rottie cirlces', around the table, up on the couch, back around the table, down the hall, back on the couch..........I forgot how much she used to make me laugh!!
And now with the tapes, she still does!!
Anyway, I still feel like the house is empty.......but with her in her special 'box' now, I actually do feel somewhat better. Plus, I made a slideshow of her on my computer that is almost always on. Every time I look over in that direction, I see her beautiful face!!
Thank you everybody for all the well wishes & concern, it is truly helpful!!
