Hi all,
Welcome to all my new followers! I'm sorry I've been quiet/absent for a while, but I'm going to try to be better about that in the next year. Operative word being "try".
It's been a long and busy and hard year, but it's ended no a positive note... I'm back in Washington. Maui was great, I spent a year there, but my family is here and so are the orcas--and they're just like extended family really.
I lost Ali in August. She had been in a wheelchair for the past year but her health declined overnight about five days before we were set to fly back from Maui and I took her in to the vet the next day. She was in a lot of pain and there was no bringing her back from the most serious of her issues. It was the easiest decision and the hardest one. For her, it was simple, she was in pain and she wasn't going to get better. She deserved compassion and she deserved to be pain-free. She wasn't happy any more. For me, it was hard. I wasn't ready to let go, but for her I did it. I still miss her terribly. I still look for her every day. But I know she's at peace and not in pain and in a better place.
I've made some decisions about where I'm going in life and what I need to do to be happy. Changes will be coming this year--I hope.
Regardless, this will not mean a decrease in photos or drawings. Not in the least.
I wish you all the happiest of new years and the best wishes for it too. Thanks for sticking with me through my dry spell. I will try to be better about that!
Cheers!
Sara
