    You’re never ready…. take it from me, one who knows far too well. I spent the night before THAT day crying those exact words.

    I’m so sorry. :cry:

    It’s always hard to let our babies go. We always wish we can hold onto them forever.

    I know how difficult this is for you. I’m here for you if you need me. Love you Angie.

    :heart:

    The family dog (her name was Nikkie) died a year ago, around Christmas. She was my grandmom’s dog and very old. The trip to come visit me did her in. She was sick from the time they arrived and they had to leave early because she just got worse. This will be the first Christmas without her. It’s been a year, and I’m still grieving and missing her. I completely understand where you’re coming from.

  27. Lynne Connolly 07. Dec, 2007 at 11:16 am #

    My deepest sympathy, Angie. It’s never easy to lose a good friend.

    No one is ever ready to lose a member of the family, blood relative or four-legged companion. My sympathies to you on your loss.

  32. Marcia 07. Dec, 2007 at 6:48 pm #

    Hugs. You never get over a love one whether they walk on two legs or four. They’re family.

  33. Mad 07. Dec, 2007 at 9:36 pm #

    I’m so sorry – I’ve been through it four times in the last five years. It never gets any easier and I was never ready, even when I knew it inevitable. It always sucks…

    I’m so sorry! :hug:

About Me


Angela James

There is nothing worse than writing a bio. And writing one for your blog sidebar? Blech. Maybe you landed here via Google, followed me from Twitter (does that make you a stalker?) or maybe we met at a conference or you clicked a link from a comment I made at a blog you visited. Hopefully whatever I said didn't make you so mad you came looking for a picture to throw darts at (yep, that's me up above, in my favorite cowboy hat) but instead drove you to find out more about the amazingly witty and intelligent person behind the amazingly witty and intelligent comment.

However you found me, who you found is Angela James, executive editor of Carina Press, Harlequin's new digital-first press. I'm passionate about digital publishing, my mission is to drag people to the digital dark side, one reader (and author) at a time. I'm also Brianna's mommy. At my blog you'll get an odd mix of personal and professional posts about parenting, publishing, books, cooking, sewing and life in general. Come back often, comment frequently and go green—buy ebooks!

Please note that this is my personal blog and my opinions are neither that of Harlequin, nor representative of their opinions.

 

Find Me Here

First, I blog once or twice a week at theCarina Press blog, talking about the job, the authors, the books and other things Carina Press. And, of course, you can always find me on Twitter. Or Facebook, if you prefer (mostly the same content, one feeds the other). I also run the Carina Press Twitter and Facebook accounts. Social media, it's where it's at (well, it's where I'm at, anyway).
