rainy days

It’s raining here today. Storming, actually.

It seems appropriate. After all, my heart is aching. I lost my sweet little hamster, Layla, this past weekend. It seems a little goofy to mourn a small pet at 22 years of age. But I never had a hamster as a kid. And Layla was much more than ordinary hamster. She was not one of the finger-snapping, viscous critters you see in the pet store. She was tame. She loved people. She was often found hanging upside from her feet in her cage just to catch some extra attention.

The ordinary lifespan of a dwarf hamster is 2-3 years. Layla lived to be three and a half years of age. She had so much life in her. I know she would of stuck around longer if she physically could of. We gave her a beautiful funeral yesterday afternoon. Five people were honored to attend. And we gave her back to the earth with her favorite treats… even a button off the remote. (She loved the remote buttons.) I know she would of been pleased.

So here I am… designing my heart out, listening to my rainy day playlist, and filled with happy memories of Layla.

RIP LAYLA December 2007 – April 2011



Whether your day is filled with thunderstorms, heartache, or just the blues, I thought I’d share my Rainy Day playlist.
