After losing my beautiful Lexi last week, I didn’t think my heart could ever be mended.
And then Nick bought me a new puppy.
Initially, I had mixed feelings about the new dog – I was looking forward to it, but at the same time, I just wanted my Lexington.
So there we were, at the airport last night… and she arrived.
Oh where, oh where can my baby be?The Lord took her away from me.She's gone to heaven, so I've got to be good,So I can see my baby when I leave this world. When I woke up, the rain was pourin down.There were people standin all around.Somethin warm runnin through my eyes,but somehow I found my baby that night.I lifted her head, she looked at me and said,Hold me darlin just a little while.I held her close, I kissed her--our last kiss.I found the love that i knew i would misswell now she's gone, even though I hold her tightI lost my love, my life - that night.
To say that I am devastated doesn’t even begin to cover it. I have a huge void in my heart, and I am really hurting. My eyes are red and swollen, and I don’t feel like I will ever stop crying. I feel broken.
My girl gave me so much love over the past 5 years, and for that I am forever grateful. She got me through some really rotten times, and she really was my best friend.
My dear Lexi/Catdog/Rat-like/Rattus/Stinky/Baby, I love you, and I miss you. You will forever hold a piece of my heart.

It’s been a bit of a struggle to get in here and write an update. When I’m not working, I’m sleeping.
Or heading into hospital for a colonscopy and biopsy – which is where I’m headed in about half an hour *lesigh* It’s been a while coming, and I’ll be glad to finally have it behind me. The pre-surgery blood test last week wasn’t exactly pleasant – but it was more me working myself up than anything. It’ll be interesting to find out the results *shrug*
We had a bit of a scare with my beautiful puppers last week. She got to a cane toad. 
It was HORRIBLE. She was staggering, and then having seizures and throwing her head around, and then she’d go all stiff. We had to rush her out the vet at 11pm, that was a good 20 minutes away (scary, given that the vet had told us that the first 20 minutes were most critical), and she got a good dose of valium, and then an IV into her. It broke my heart to have to leave her there overnight. Especially since we were told that there was a possibility she wouldn’t make it.
I didn’t sleep a wink that night. We didn’t get home from the vet until 1am, and I bawled my eyes out long into the early hours of the morning. I don’t think Nick got much sleep either! Nor my Mum.
But she survived. My girl sure is a little fighter.
We’ve been on toad watch every night since, and we’re finding them on an almost nightly basis. Poor Lexi has to be on a lead when she goes out to the toilet before bed. She’s not so crazy about it, but I don’t want to have to go through that again. She turns 5 next month – and I intend to have her around for many more years after that!
With that, I’m off. Time to head down to the private hospital. I haven’t been allowed to eat the past two days. Ohh, the pain!

Did I mention I bought Lexi a Knicks basketball jersey when I was in New York? *giggle*
