A New Beginning

I'm starting this blog as an extension of Dolce's life (dolcedoggie.blogspot.com).  This blog, Crazy Dog Lady Sierra, will follow me as I move through the grieving process of losing Dolce, as I tend to the needs of my pack (going from 4 to 3 has not been easy on them either), and as I experience life as a open-hearted lover of all living beings (but most often they are dogs).

Please feel free to offer me advice, or suggestions, or just words of encouragement.  I'm really starting this blog as a way to find others that have similar experiences, or understand specific feelings I am having and can help me.  Of course, I hope to help others as well, but right now as I start this blog, I am looking to find an outlet and to be able to purge myself of the overwhelming emotions and thoughts I continue to have.  One of the problems I experience with grief and loss is the sense of loneliness and feeling of not having anyone to share it with.  Of course I have Brett, and anyone who doesn't know who Brett is, will soon.  He is my boyfriend/domestic partner, best friend, voice of reason and support system.  Right now as I deal with my grief I share with Brett my thoughts and how I am feeling, but I worry that eventually he will be tired of hearing it.  Of course he has in no way demonstrated that he will become tired or frustrated by my grief, but I do worry about it.  I hope this blog will serve as a safe place for myself and others to share advice, feelings and thoughts.

And please bear with me.  I struggle with patience and going back and rereading my posts usually is something I dread or avoid.  If I make a mistake, let me know and I'll fix it.  But please treat this blog as a positive forum.  Please no bashing or negative comments directed at me or anyone else leaving comments.
