Hi. Unfortunately this past week was a difficult one. Work was a bit of a nightmare including having to pull an extra day due to annual training. Which started at 8 am. [i]8 AM?![/i] I don't even like to wake up before 10 am at the earliest. Especially since I was trying to shift my sleep schedule over for night shift. But nope, no night shifter friendly training available. -grumble grumble-

I'm also struggling with some tiny plant babies I'm trying to grow. I don't have a lot of knowledge and experience with plants, but trying to put them in a sunnier location in hopes of reviving the babies.

But ... what really made it hard wasn't related to work stuff. Recently one of our cats got diagnosed with an aggressive mouth cancer. We'd had her for 10 years and she was our baby girl. We'd been doing palliative care for the last few weeks. On Friday evening, we made the difficult decision to take her to the vet and on Saturday morning we said goodbye to her. It still hurts, and I still feel like crying. I kept her collar, but I'm not sure what to do with it. (All the cute ideas I'd seen online doesn't work as well when the thing is frayed to bits because she hated it, hehe.)

I made a bit of a memorial picture/vent art about it. I have it colored, but not sure if I want to shade/highlight it and do a background of some sort or just leave it at flat colors. I'm also not sure if I want to break up uploading schedule and go ahead and post it or not.

So yeah, it's been a bit rough over at this den. But it'll be getting better soon. I'm just needing to be patient with myself, which is a bit hard. It'll get better though. Hopefully soon, so I'll have something happier to put up here on my front page. :/
