It's late night jaffa cakes and tea again ... though I'm physically exhausted I can't seem to find the off switch to my thoughts and dreams. I've been crying again, shit I should be able to move on, but the roller coaster ride with Sammi is not helping. I swear my heart hurts, I feel an ache in the pit of my stomach that as I've said before I can only compare to loss. I wanted it so much that in the quieter moments I can't seem to think of anything else. Oh hell I know what I have, so much love, so much joy from a large and lovely family of canine and feline "kids." I am also truly blessed to live with, love and be loved by the best man I could ever imagine would cross my path, but it doesn't take away from the sadness, the disappointment and the longing to be there again watching new life. It is for me the most magical experience and it feels like forever since my heart was filled with that joy.

I should try and go back to bed, but lying there with my thought I just get worse. I plan and organise thing, have conversations with stud dog owners and vets, plan routes ... Oh and I scratch, my eczema is off the scale. Anxiety and stress have always cause my eczema to flare up, which then creates more anxiety and stress, which then leads to more eczema flare-ups. ... but again there is nothing I can do about it .. I do no not choose this, it is what it is and until somehow I'm able to move past it I have to live through it and to be fair it's not even a month since my dreams were completely dashed is it!
Come on Sammi .. you at least could help me out a little here my angel....
