Thanks so much for asking, BethRags. I'm doing what needs to be done. (I'm always doing what needs to be done.) But I still miss Joey every minute of every day. And I still see him around our home from time-to-time. This morning I was in the bathroom with the door ajar while I was shaving & I thought I saw him poke his little head in the door like he used to do to make sure I was home. I still seem to find something that causes me to tear-up each day as well. (I never used to be a crier. But I'm learning.) They say time heals all wounds. But I'm old. I won't live long enough to heal this one. My wife is talking about trying to find another dog who needs a home. And if she can I suppose we will adopt another pooch. But it won't be Joey. I just don't know...
