May was pretty grand! BP and I took a nice long tropical vacation to celebrate his 40th and our 10 year wedding anniversary (just a skosh early). I dyed my hair to look like a bird of paradise flower beforehand! We went ATV/UTVing and to the botanical gardens and a pearl/gemstone museum. Drank every Mai-Tai we came across. Stuffed our faces with all the best food—Otoro and caviar and ube pancakes and oysters and everything in between!
It was just what I needed, especially at that time. Feeling the sun on my face, the salt on my skin, reminded me that there is still more life to live. Grief is weird and ever-evolving. I’ll always miss NachoDog. There will never be another like him. But someday, we’ll bring another pup into the family and pour all our love into him too.
A Place For Everything.
