       Dog up and bury your grief like a bone

I'm with Jerry T. I really do like that "Dog up." Brings to mind either Ketchup, Dog up; or Dog up Ketchup. Whatever, sometimes ~ gw

What's easy that's worth it? I remember going with one of my best friends to the vet to put her old cat down, then to the coffee shop to cry, then to the pound to find a new one. Grief is a process, it has to be processed else it's paralyzing. Thank you Barry :) xomo!
