Another hot day at work! Gateway has a lot of people in now, all wanting to enjoy BC DAY long week-end; all our neighbours have arrived! There was a meeting on Saturday morning about the rules and regulations with the committee which I am part of but missed due to work. From what I hear it went well and some new ideas were put forth. The biggest controversy was allowing ATV and dirt bikes in the Park. Anyway, I ended the night at Al and Dana for a drink of wine then it was home to bed. The rest of the week was uneventful except for Sunday evening when we celebrated Ron’s birthday next door to us. Quite a few people showed up and Tucker was in attendance and got to be petted by almost everyone. He went home happy but sore and tired from all that excitement.
Today was extremely hard, sad and yet a relief that our little bundle of Joy and Happiness, TUCKER, is no longer suffering. He was in constant pain whenever he moved or turned in his sleep. The meds that he was on were no longer satisfying for him so it was time! I called the Vet and made an appointment for 3:30 pm to put an end to his suffering. He died at 4 pm and is now in heaven with all his friends (Spone, Ruby, Gracie and a couple others) and maybe even his family. It was extremely hard and lonely to come home without him and seeing all his stuff lying around. I picked up and put away most of his stuff such as toys, bed, water and food bowls and his favorite blanket. We had a few cries in the evening and I posted a little memorial for him on Facebook.
I put Tucker’s stuff in storage then washed the windows on the Jeep. I went to Sorrento and renewed the insurance on the jeep and my meds for the next two months. On the way in, there was an accident where a trucker went off the road and into the lake. He had to be really speeding for the way he went in!? We went to Chase to pick up some groceries, came home and put that away. The rest of the day was emotional, remembering our little buddy! I MISS HIM SO MUCH ALREADY!!!

So very very sorry about wee Tucker. We are sad to let them go, but always take heart that they were loved and spoiled with a wonderful life, as he indeed had. Our thoughts are with you.
Val and Claude, I am so sorry for the loss of Tucker, he truly was a Best Friend. I thoughts are with you both at this particularly difficult time.
