Joyous memories

It's been a while since my last post. I took some time to stop writing about Sassy and to start remembering her more in a very joyful way. There have been tears of course intermingled with that joy, because I love my girl so much, and just miss her presence in my life. I've been hard at work on a scrapbook with her photos. Never a previous "scrapbooker," I got the idea from watching my sister-in-law over time who is an avid scrapbooker. She has gatherings of girlfriends where they scrapbook together! I think it will always be a solitary activity for me, but I have enjoyed making the one for Sassy. I've gathered ribbons, bows, colored papers, stamps, stickers, and all sorts of other supplies, sorted through dozens and dozens of photos, and made theme pages, put quotes on them. A lot of emotion and feeling has poured into the scrapbook pages. It is a tribute to my love for a very special being. I highly recommend scrapbooking for whatever purpose. My next project will be a scrapbook for Grayson, my 8-year-old cat who continues to amaze us each day.....his most recent adventure was to get into a fight with a GROUNDHOG (he lost!!).
