This holiday season was a very difficult one for myself and my family. This was our very first Christmas without our grandpa, who we always had dinner and dessert and spent the majority of the day with him and our grandma. It was also the very first time I had been in the house since his death. We all made it through the day okay and had a good dinner prepared by my grandma.
The day after Christmas we lost our oldest dog, Snitch a black lab, who was a very loving and calm dog. This was the first time we had an animal die at home. It was a difficult day for everybody and it certainly was not fun to have to go to work, especially when working in customer service and having to put on a happy face. Our Siberian Husky, Demon is starting to get back to his normal attitude, as he was with Snitch all the time. He has since decided that he is an inside dog and that he must sleep inside the house. Not too big of a deal, right? Well, he likes to howl at 2:30 in the morning, which makes for a very long day after being up with him all night. My hope is that he will start to sleep all through the night before I go back to school on the 18th.
