The loss of a pet is one of the most difficult things to experience and made even more so by the fact that we so often have to make hard decisions in the process. "Doing the right thing" doesn't always feel right even when we know it is the kindest thing.<br /><br />I'm glad you had a nice experience prior to the sad one. It doesn't balance the scales or fill that hole, but it helps to indulge a bit sometimes.Sheepish Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15564802976550099985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3105432749747104284.post-29310984272638687602009-08-10T17:12:31.813-07:002009-08-10T17:12:31.813-07:00I am so glad we connected at SS and we got to shar...I am so glad we connected at SS and we got to share thoughts on our dogs and life.

It's an awful hole, though. <br /><br />Golden Gate does sound wonderful! The fiber is beautiful, and the Lendrum is a good choice. I've been thinking about a new wheel for a long while now, and the Lendrum is very high up on the list. And those spindles? It's a good thing shipping to Germany is expensive, is all I can say. <br /><br />Have a great time at Sock Summit!!EGunnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12941668303286640744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3105432749747104284.post-67127989840848934692009-08-05T00:40:25.765-07:002009-08-05T00:40:25.765-07:00Jocelyn, It is always a hard decision to make.
