Leap Day


I seriously considered deleting this blog today. I can't remember the passwords and it's a problem logging in. But now that I'm here writing, I don't know how I feel.

I stopped writing because I was in pain and I didn't want to share that pain in this forum. I'm feeling better now, but I still feel wary of sharing.

Blogging is a therapy, and I think therapy ultimately disappoints us.

Beyond all this are the generous, intelligent people I've met here, I don't want to break that link.



I cook every night for my dogs now. No more canned dog food. As you can see they really appreciate my efforts.

So glad you didn't delete! I check your blog all the time waiting for a post! Glad you posted today. :)

If I die, please let me come back as one of your dogs! lol

Sarah said...

lol @ sassy. me too!

such a good mommy you are. your dogs are lucky and loved.

I don't know what I would have done if I had clicked on your blog link and it wasn't there. without question I'd be upset. quite upset.

oh, and hell yeah to the following: blogging is a therapy, and I think therapy ultimately disappoints us.

xoxo
happy leap day.

I love both of these comments! Thank you so much for leaving them. I didn't think anyone would check here for days.

The dogs are a bit spoiled, I have to admit.

Hello in there. I've missed you like frappin crazy.

Sam wants to come live with you, as he is certain that your dogs get better meals than he does. Hell, I wanna come live with you...heh.

Oh Rainy I'm so glad you haven't closed up your blog, I always feel at home here.

Sometimes the things that hurt the most need to be worked over, written out and read through, and sometimes objective eyes can point out things that we may be missing.

I'm sending you love,
Lori

I am so glad you didn't delete this spot, Rain!

I was wondering that we could meet some day soon. At least, I think it would be dreaming. Hubby and I are going to Europe by the end of the year and we are going to spend two weeks in Dublin for sure. We have got to take a course there. How about meeting us there in Europe this winter? YOU could go backpacking with us and some students of ours. We could have fun and finally get over any pain and depression. Please, say LET'S!

Rain said...

Thanks Lori, we don't want to talk but we feel better when we do. You are such a good mom ;)

But Ms. Burden, I am so scared to fly! I was hoping at first glance that you were coming to the US. In that case I would drive many miles to meet you at TJ Maxx. Keep me informed about your travel plans. It could be something that works out for me.

glad I popped in today, & oh, it would have been awful to find no Rain in the Sky. We need Rain, & we're a patient lot.

It's good for fur/feather/scaly-people to be treated well, they live long & thrive then, just like us two-leggeds!

So glad to see you again.

Thought of killing the blog many times myself, and for not such a good reason, but you can't top the people on here. Always there for you.
I'm glad you've stayed.
