Hello all ....
Good day all ... I'm new to this group, so here's my introduction.
I'm a very happily single lady who has been blessed to share my life with my 5th Cavalier King Charles spaniel, Bess, who has celebrated 10 birthdays. We are extremely compatible, and I can't imagine my life without my precious little Bess. I have a son, 2 grandsons and 1 granddaughter. I've never held my grandchildren, although I've had face-time with them. That's a positive for the internet!
We live in Hervey Bay, just 1klm from a sweet little dog friendly beach. Having spent my life living in various parts of Australia & o'seas, I've found my final home now, and have lived here for around 15 years, but it could be longer ... the more birthdays one celebrates, the faster years seem to fly by.
I've become a bit of a 'homebody' over the last few years, so Bess and I are rarely parted, unless I can't find a good enough excuse not to go out; however, if I have to go out, Bess lets me know that she feels the same way. I always say that this is Bess' house and she lets me live here ... as long as I feed her & pay the bills!
I had to go to the hairdresser the other day, and while I was there, my delightful and most helpful Carer did a little grocery shopping for me. Kylie very kindly brought the groceries in and unpacked them for me, all the while my little girl was quietly whimpering for me while she went searching through the house, checking the back garden, and back to the front door again, all the while searching. I haven't been too well of late, and my little girl has been extra close to me, as though she knows. Fortunately, I'd just finished as Kylie arrived to take me home. As we drove by the house (small villa in a small complex), there was my little baby's face at the bottom corner of the window, her little eyes, well actually they are rather big and soulful being a spaniel, but as I opened the car door, not only could I see her sweet little face with her nose pressed up against the window, I could hear her faint, pitiful little whimper ... and then she saw me!! Well, I've never had such a joyous greeting from her in all the 10 years we've been together! (I think that she knows that I'm talking about her, as she's resting her little face on her pillow, and has her eyes open, watching me.)
Until recently, I had to help my little Bess up onto our/my bed. Even though I couldn't see her, I 'just knew' when she was sitting on the floor, with total faith, and her 'just knowing', that I'd know that she was there, and I'd help her up. We beat to the one heart.
Cheers ... & thanks for reading my intro , Us2 ...
Guess whose bed it is!! ............ however, she does, very generously, allow me to share!
