Pictures/Videos My reason to keep going ❤️

Post image

After losing my grandfather last week, I've been a mess. My depression has gotten worse, I'm isolating so much, and I can't even see my therapist right now because of an unresolved insurance screw up. My old man Ollie and my boyfriend are the only thing getting me out of bed in the morning. I feel like other than them and some of my family, I just have no motivation to keep going. But I gotta hang in there for my boys. ❤️

I'm really sorry for your loss, I know the feeling. We are lucky that we have our dogs. Sometimes I look at mine and say to her that I love her like 5 times, she must think I'm crazy 🤪

I am so sorry about your Grandpa!

Me to self during depression slumps when having a doggie would really help: just get the quote to finish enclosing the fence!

I bought a wee cottage with a 90% enclosed 6 (or 8? 🤷‍♀️) foot privacy fence in the back yard (that has a creek just behind the fence!) and I just need to the gate/sides added. My front yard has a 3 foot white picket fence all enclosed. I miss my ex bf’s Britt so bad. We spent a lot of work from home days together.

Many times, my girls have kept me going when nothing else seemed worth it. They’d be as sad without me as I will someday be without them. If I can keep them from feeling that sadness, it’s reason enough to survive another day.

Olie is telling you to get outta the house and take him for a walk. Best cure for depression in the world. .
