Bitter Sweet

I am supposed to be thrilled and nervous tonight.  My launch party for Origami Owl is tomorrow and I have a Jewelry Bar Saturday.  All week I have been going through my things making sure I have what  I need.  I am taking my two young daughters with me to stay with family.  So packing bags and trying not to forget anything.  Then out of nowhere my precious 14 year old dog Reagan was not doing well.  Today we woke up to some "surprises" around the house.  We booked a vet appointment and learned she had kidney disease and it was very advanced.  We had to make a difficult decision and say good-bye.  Saying good-bye to a friend who has seen you through thick and thin for 13-14 years is the hardest thing to do.  I feel lucky and honored she chose us to be her parents.

So while I deal with my grief and loss I must pick myself up and prepare for this busy weekend of family and friends and playing with jewelry.  I am going to make a locket to wear this weekend in honor of my amazing four legged friend Reagan.  It will tell our story without me saying a word.
