1st Anniversary

Today marks the 1st anniversary of the passing of a remarkable being. On June 3, 2009, after 11 years, Flannel left us. As some of you know, she was a dog with her own style & never hestitated to speak her mind. She is greatly missed by her family (probably not so much by her neighbors).







Flannel was with me through 11 years, 2 relationships, 4 apartments, 5 jobs, 4 roommates, 3 cars and countless hours of knitting. She knew all my secrets and I knew hers. She had terrible manners and a nasty habit of biting my feet in the middle of the night if disturbed. She had terrible breath and an insane love of couscous. When you have a pet there are just some things you will put up with because you love them unconditionally. Just like they do you.

She was the first dog I ever had (& she may be the last) and, like most friends, she is irreplaceable.

I love you Boo.
