    Thank you for sharing! What classes are you starting, if you don’t mind me asking? And I’m very sorry to hear your cat is not doing well. Losing pets is heartbreaking… I hope you are able to spend some good times with her before she crosses the rainbow bridge. One day at a time sounds about right.

    Oh, and I also have 2-3 books going at once. It gets confusing, lol.

      Thanks, I said my good Byes Saturday while she was still conscious enough to respond, she passed Sunday evening at home in her sleep. I didn’t want to stress her by taking her to the vet and she didn’t seem to be in distress so I let her pass naturally. She had a good long life, trying to just think about that and not get caught up in sadness.

      As for classes, I’m taking an intro to horticulture class and an intro to psychology class. This is a trial semester and i’m kind of testing the waters. I have a bad past record with college and am stressing over this but I must defeat my inner demons. Trial by fire I guess. I start next week and am already feeling a bit overwhelmed as I was just reading the class prep notes and am sitting here wondering what did I get myself into? I am just ignoring that particular inner voice right now. I can do this!

        You can absolutely do this! Sounds like an interesting mix of classes, I hope you learn and grow in ways that please you.

        I don’t know if you’ve ever had to take an animal to the vet for euthanasia, I’ve had to take quite a few because we adopt older dogs from shelters. I can assure you you’ve made the right choice by not stressing her out. In a way, it’s a blessing when they pass away without distress like that. May she rest in peace, and may you also have peace in your heart.
