Not Funny or Sassy Today

Hello humans,

I must be becoming a human. Today I don't feel funny or sassy or feel like ragging on Missy Linda at all. I just feel sad the way that the humans around here do. Missy Linda and Tio Kane have been asleep almost all day. That's okay with me. I heard them say that they were a little wrung out. It has been a grueling few days here.

Saturday was the memorial service for Missy Sharon. I heard that it was a beautiful tribute, and that there were many people there. Missy Sharon had a sister and two brothers, and her mother was there, too. After the service, the family and close friends went out to Missy Barb's beautiful home and had some food and talk. Missy Linda's five little granddaughters were there and so was another little girl their age named Brooke. They were good distractions for some people. Children are good at that.

Missy Linda told me that her family and Missy Sharon's family knew each other long before her brother married Missy Sharon. Their dads worked at the same company when they were kids. There is the story that Missy Sharon's parents chose Missy Linda's brother for their son-in-law before he even dated Sharon. There will be a big hole in these families forever.

As some of you know, Missy Linda's family has had a very hard year. One year ago this month, Missy Linda's mother died, and in the same month her divorce became final. Two days before Christmas, the older brother to Missy Linda and Pseudo-uncle died. He was Missy Barb's husband. There were the deaths of long time beloved pets, Puck and Jackie-O. Then Missy Sharon had her terrible accident. Missy Linda's family has had enough loss for awhile. They need a break and some time to heal, don't you think?
