Humphrey Visits Again
Last night, I had another dream where Humphrey came to visit me. That's definitely what it felt like in this dream.
I remember dreaming that I was in a park, and the park was like a combination of Lakewood Park & Madison Park. I had Liza with me, and I was by the playground area that reminded me of Lakewood Park.Liza and I were on the winding ( Read more... ) -
Humphrey Returns Again
Had another dream last night with Humphrey in it. This time, I was well aware that he had died, but in the dream, I guess he just kind of shows up - in a neighbor's open garage sleeping or something, and we're just like, "Oh, it looks like Humphrey's back." He looked old in the dream, like not quite a zombie, but old and tired. I remembered ( Read more... ) -
A Visit From Humphrey
Copied from Dreamwidth, which seems to no longer be able to cross-post here to LiveJournal...
I had to write this down somewhere, and with the state of social media, I don't know if any of those accounts will be permanent. I should know better. Nothing is permanent. Likely not even this. But I digress...

Humphrey
Humphrey passed last Friday. We had to make the decision, but that morning, he didn't even want to take a treat. It's what has allowed me to have no regrets about it. He was ready, and he didn't suffer ( Read more... ) -
The Artist In Me
Yesterday we had a meeting about our retirement accounts and plans. The Firm I work at switched to a different retirement handling company. It was "nice" to get the confirmation that I'm as fucked as I thought I was. And even more disheartening to see that I have at least 26 more years of work ahead of me - until i find out that I'm fucking ancient ( Read more... ) -
Night Terror
I woke up from a nightmare early this morning, and I don't think I was able to get back to sleep. It really shook me ( Read more... ) -
Hope
Ray talked to our actual vet yesterday. He saw her retired father, who fills in, when he took Humphrey in on Wednesday. When he explained about Humphrey's eyes having an odd movement, our vet was relieved, and said that Humphrey did not have a stroke, but has Older Dog Vestibular Syndrome. It should self-correct in a few days, but I read about it, ( Read more... ) -
Light Dimmed
Yesterday, Humphrey had a stroke late in the morning. That was after I had woke up to a fraud alert text from my bank, of fraudulent charges on my bank card. Which locks up my account for 5 to 7 business days until I can get a new card ( Read more... ) -
Carter
Carter passed away on Saturday. It was around 7:00 or so, and Ray got up for his teaching job and soon after, woke me up by saying that something was wrong with Carter, that he had an accident, and would need a bath. I went to pick him up, and his tail was in his mouth, which has happened before. When I picked him up, I noticed that he was very ( Read more... ) -
Recuperation
I haven't written in a while. I meant to, but you know how it goes. We've been dealing with Carter's health issue for a while now. Back in early/mid January, the temperature dropped 40 degrees in one day, and Carter decided that was the last straw. he wasn't going to pee outside any more. And then at all. And right after that happened, Ray left to ( Read more... )
