Default Marley and Me

Watched it tonight. It is one of my many movies I have recorded on my DirectV DVR, It is 5 Kleenex movie. It reminded me so much of when we had to put our beloved dog down. It was an act of love. Buddy was with our girls through many years and was a big part of our family. I just didn't look as good as Jennifer Anniston.

I like that movie too. It always makes me cry tho. I have the book and have never been able to finish the book because it also makes me cry.

It reminds me of my dog, TinyMonsters. (he died in 2006. Neighbors poisoned him)

Read your post this morning right after you posted it, and started thinking about Tiny. Went back to bed for a bit (not feeling good today) and had a really good and a bit realistic dream about Tiny, which I havent had one of him in awhile. It was kind of nice to see Tiny in a dream, altho dreamTiny was chewing up the tv remotes at one point. (so he wasnt all that different from realTiny)

I read the book, took me ages to finish the last few chapters. Couldn't read thru the tears. No way could I ever try to watch the movie.

It was just such a wonderful story of how a dog helped a young couple through their honeymoon years, then each baby, post partum depression, grew with the kids. Then how mature the kids were along with the parents help to all write a note and put in the ground with thier beloved dog.
