I have finally came back. I have just not had time or the desire much to blog but I do think a make over for the page and I little blogging might be a good distraction.
Yesterday (Tuesday) was a very sad and emotional day for me and my family. Yes this is BigDave with an tender post but I am not the big grumpy man that some think I am. The is a tender teddy bear in there just waiting to be released at times.
As I said yesterday was a rough one. My longtime friend and companion and our longtime family pet (13years) our Yellow Lab "Corky" had to be put to sleep. She had developed a tumor on her spine and she had lost the use of here back legs a week or so ago and had given up eatting. I literally with my wife were carrying here out to go to the bathroom frequently throughout the day. At 110 pounds this shows you how much she ment to our entire family.
We had to decide to do what was best for her however painful it was for us. The girls took this really hard as this is the only dog they have had as a pet. But we will begin looking and praying about another pet to take away some of the loneliness.
As my wife said last night "who knew how much a dog could mean to you."
So if you see me the next few days and I look down a bit this is why.
