The sketchbook I’m using has journal entries and sketches I’d forgotten I’d done, from 1997! This is my beloved cat, Koosh, of blessed memory. She died on MLK Day in 1999, the same year I got divorced.
It’s fascinating, and also painful, getting a peek into what I was thinking and seeing back then. I was not a happy person… Seeing Koosh made me smile though. A smile tinged with longing and sadness. I think losing that cat was harder than losing my marriage.
