Dear God,
Yesterday was a good day. A day I ate my sorrow over Shadow. Since his death, I'm struggling. I feel very sad. He wasn't there to get into my earrings when I slid open the door to get my toothbrush. I miss him. I miss his deep eyes when we'd look at each other. So full of Shadow...
I feel depressed. I know it's normal to grieve, to feel sad, to be down. My body hurts because of the humidity. I am one big ache.
I gained 8 pounds in 48 hours. How the heck did that happen? No wonder my weight has been so screwy.
I guess I'll start no sugar except for tea tomorrow. I already blew today.
I love you.
Give Shadow a big squeeze and kisses from me.
Tell him how much I miss him - how much he was loved - even when he was a pain.
Your daughter,
Amy Kathleen
