Hey guys I just wanted everyone to know that I won't be posting for a while on August 10th we just put down my dog/ best friend of almost 13 years and it has been super painful so I am going to take some time for myself. I'm still gonna be on jai but I'm not gonna be posting any bots for a bit. its not gonna be anything too long like a year or anything like that, maybe just a month to a few months unless I randomly feel really motivated to do one some random night. I hope you all are doing well and if anyone is going to start studying this month or next month I wish you all luck on that. if anyone has any tips on how to cope with pet loss I'd much appreciate it. he was truly my best friend, this is such a hard loss it doesn't even feel real. these past two and a half days have felt like a dream where I'm out of my body just waiting to wake up. I miss him dearly. it's such a weird feeling seeing all of his things, all the places he would be but he's not there. Every time I go into my living room I search for him in the spots he'd usually be, even though I know he's dead i still scan the room for him without noticing. I would always leave a little bit of food for him too whenever I was done eating and I've been doing that without even realizing. it's for sure one of the worst feelings ever and one of the hardest things I've had to go through. I am so happy that I got to have him in my life though. I'm trying to live by that quote of don't be sorry its over, be glad it happened. I know he's now doing a lot better if he's in heaven or whatever happens after death. I sure do hope it's heaven cause that's what he deserves. he was a beautiful yellow lab x blue heeler mix. I sure do miss my boy.
