Thanks so much, you guys, for your kind and caring comments. I actually meant to turn off the comment thingie, since I didn't want it to seem like I was trying to get sympathy or something -- but I forgot to do it. *izadope* Sorry about that ... but I really am grateful to you all for caring enough to send your thoughts to me. *GLOMS*
I hadn't expected to be so sad over Pixie's passing. Yes, I loved her. But, she has not been a true part of my life for many years, since she stayed behind with my parents when I moved away. I would have taken her with me, if it had been possible. But, at the time, it wasn't. So, I guess that's why I was surprised at how depressed I felt.
Luckily, it hasn't hit me as hard as Tex's death. I'm still reeling from that one, and, likely, will be for a long time. I don't think I could function if Pixie's death had affected me as strongly.
However, I have thought about it. And, I've decided: No More. I am calling a Moratorium on Death. No one else that I love is allowed to die (and that includes pets, too) ... well, I would like to say "ever", but I know that is not realistic. So, I'll say for the rest of this year.
(Yeah, I know ... it's not possible. Still, wouldn't it be nice if it was?)
