This is my beloved Pippin who passed away 4 weeks ago tonight. I have a chronic illness, and Pippin was always there to sit on my pillow, cheer me up and preen my eyelashes when I was crying. This week, I was in the ER and just wanted to come home to my Pippin. I really wish she were still here.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[OMGoodness, this is my dog!  I was looking for a photo I took of him a few weeks ago which I loved and then unexpected family showed up for 4 days so I put my laptop away and look what I find when I get on this morning.  Wow!  What are the odds that the winner has the exact same retriever as we have?  
Very beautiful!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I feel like I can almost reach out and touch Nana!

Here is my entry. My companion is beside me as I write.


I am worried.....
you are there.
I am so sad.....
you are there.
I reach out and touch you.....
you are there.
I am so very joyful.....
you are there.
I will never take for granted one minute of our lives.....
that we have been blessed to share.
