You guys are so right♥
Everyone always talks about how listening to Sammy's music has helped them through tough times in life, which I always totally could believe, but never had to find out for myself. I usually like to be sort of the class clown around here (or anywhere really!!), but I unfortunately had to find out how Sammy could help me through a tough time. Last night we had to put down our beloved dog Rowdy. He was 16 and had been in failing physical condition for some time. Long story short, I was a flippin' basket case last night. Went to work today, figured sitting at home crying myself sick was no good. I didn't even want to listen to any music really (that's how you KNOW I'm feeling bad). But I said you know, if rockin' out to some Sammy, VH, Chickenfoot or whatever makes me happy on a good day, what harm can it do? Definitely helped. I am not exactly my old sunny self, but for sure feeling better than I was most of the day. Might be a few days until I feel like belting anything out to the cheap seats, but I'll get there. And thanks JA♥ for the latest tune in my collection, definitely a happy one. Plus, today marks only 2 weeks left until the Chickenfoot show in Indio!! Man I gotta start planning...
Sorry to be Debbie Downer going into a weekend, I just wanted to share, as always. Thanks to everyone too who is a FB friend of mine and took the time to leave me a nice message♥
Peace, ♥ and R&R to all!!

OH I`ve been an animal lover all my life and I have had my own pet sitting business for 4 years now. It has been SO wonderful making a living doing something I love, even though I have to keep a second job to make ends meet.
On Sept. 2nd tragedy struck my business for the first time. I was caring for one of my very first client`s dogs at my house. I loved these dogs like my own. Long story short, one of them passed away in my care. (Not my fault but STILL!) I had to make that HORRIBLE phone call to her owners.
I am still not over it, but am getting better. I too haven`t been in the mood for music. Not even Sammy.
I`ve been struggling with whether or not I can continue the business. Having to make that phone call was so tramatic.
My first reaction was NEVER AGAIN! I sobbed & sobbed!
But animals are my passion along with music. So I am going to carry on with the business thanks to the support of my other clients.
I ask WHY?
My husband says to put it in perspective. At least I didn`t find HIM dead in the yard!!
Have U heard the poem "The Rainbow Bridge? If not, google it. It may help.
I feel you pain!
SAMMY'S A PART OF WHAT SAVED MY LIFE THANKS SAM
Sorry for your loss ,I know how painfull losing a pet can be .
I am so sorry for your loss. Our dogs are not pets they are family members as I am sure your Rowdy was to you. Hang in there and stay strong. I can't imagine what you are going thru...16 yrs wow. He lived a long life.
God Bless!
My thoughts exactly Mike, thanks. Thanks to everyone, RedHeads are the best ever!!
I am terribly sorry about your dog, I had three dogs and just had to put one of mine down about a month ago. He was our kids first dog so that was tough, hang in there. The thing about Sammy's music is that it seems he has a song that can be related to just about any situation; happy, sad, angry, revenge, love, you name it there is some song of his that helps relate or put those emotions into words.
Sorry to hear about your loss. Hang in there.
i'm sorry to read this , losing a pet is very hard . hope u feel yourself soon .
