When The Worst Happens

 If you are having a bad day, enjoy some cat pictures then go ahead and read something else.

These are my babies, Merlin (bottom) and Maggie Mae (top). 
They are the cutest cats on the planet. I'm super not biased. 
Obviously.

This part of the post is for me.

On May 4, 2017, I lost my babies in one of the worst ways imaginable. I miss them every day and it hasn't gotten easier yet. Apparently that comes with time. I'm writing this in mid-July, but decided to back date it, so that it fits in chronologically. It also why I tried to implement more fun in my life in May. I'm not going to lie that it fixed everything, but getting out of the house definitely helped.

Something that helped was how amazing my husband was through everything. He cleaned up the terrible scene and placed them in a box before I got home so I wouldn't have to see. He held me as I cried and held my hand when we took them to be cremated. They now sit on the windowsill above the kitchen sink next to my aloe vera plant.

Merlin and Maggie Mae were one of the best pieces of my life.

Losing them took a piece of me with them. While at the shelter, I saw two kittens named Dawn and Dusk with similar markings which really hit home for me. They will always be a part of my life and in my heart.

When the worst happens, its alright to lean on the people around you. You are not alone.
