Plans: get happy again…someday
NOTE: This is so hard. I don’t know how many times have I’ve already cried this morning. It tears my heart to see Meeka’s empty bed, her food bowl, her medication tray…I know it’s get better. It’s just going to take some time to get through this period of mourning.
NOTE 2: Here is what I posted on Facebook and on the RHK website:
"I wanted to take a moment to thank you, my Facebook friends, for the love and compassion you showed during the loss of Meeka. I know that Audie shares in this sentiment as well.
Meeka was given to me several years ago by my shop-lead while at Hawker-Beechcraft. Even then she had health problems. When I got her she had hook and whip worms that could have killed her but for the intervention of medication and her veterinary at Air Capital Veterinary here in Wichita Kansas. It took several months but Meeka was a trooper and battled through it. She continued her monthly treatments. Eventually, it was to be discovered that her thyroid was producing no hormones. She was taking medication for that. Subsequently, she started having seizures and she was battling through that as well with daily medication. However, it was renal failure that eventually
poisoned her body and took Meeka from me.
Thank you ALL, for your kind words of support, love and compassion during this time of loss. Having to put down a family member such as Meeka was the hardest, yet the most compassionate thing I think I will ever have to endure. You Have no idea how much your kind words means to Audie and me.
Kudos to Dr. Richard Bartel, at Air Capital Veterinary, without whom I would have lost Meeka a long time ago.
Peace and love.
NOTE 3: Both of us awake, both still crying.
Thunar/Thor, wielder of Mjolnir and Great God of thunder forth in our lives. When we would hold back, let us advance. When we would be weak, help us be strong. When we would shun life’s pleasures, sharpen our appetites for that which is lusty and good. Help us grow from strength, and teach us, elder brother, how to throw our own Hammer, and slay the giants who appose our will.
WE GIVE YOU MOST HEART-FELT HAIL, THUNAR/THOR, as we honor the Thunar that resides in us!

Outcome: WOW! Perfekt on both fronts; physical and spiritual.
Audie and I certainly have been a team in this. We both loved Meeka as family. We shall remember her that way. At the same time my spirit man has to realize Meeka was meant to finish her life with me/us. For some reason, something inside Meeka needed to understand compassion.
I called Air Capital Veterinary with a question. I asked him, “If I had unlimited money, what could’ve been done differently with Meeka?” I don’t remember EXACTLY what he said, but what I DO remember is, no matter I could have tried with all the money in the world, anything would have been “iffy” at best. That let me know I did the best I could’ve done for Meeka.
I stopped at the American Red Cross (again) in search of assistance…TBD
Got my hairs cut…military short; Audie always hates it, I always love it.
Subway http://www.subway.com/subwayroot/default.aspx for lunch.
Moved a bookshelf out of the computer room into the Hof. The bookshelf in the computer room was a wee bit larger than the one in the Hof. It worked out perfectly. Now to decide what to do with the leftover shelf.
Audie cleaned house.
It’s just been a keep-busy kind of a day. Anything to keep minds busy.
SNOW!!!!!!!! I mean, HUGE flakes, too! If only the ground was cold enough for it to stick.

LOTS of hard work in the man-cave/computer/library/work-out/room. Six library shelves: 3 six-foot and three four-foot, have been reduced to only three six-foot shelves against a single wall. With all the extra books gone, and a wee bit of rearranging, there just may actually be a bit of a bedroom in there, too.
Audie across the street to watch “American Idol” with our 80 yr old neighbor…hehe…

PM Prayer: The Norns:
The Norns, all three, are present at birth
To weave our Fate from merriment to dearth.
Urd, Verdandi and Skuld, the dark queens renowned;
Glorious ladies ‘neath the Tree, work your mysteries in us now.
That which “was” we clearly see.
That which “is” formed now in our deeds.
That which “will be”, will yet be; but cannot see.
We celebrate the Norns, the Ladies Three, for eternity.
PM Rune: none
