Happy to see the mascot happy! Wish you weren't wrestling with the past, and /really/ wish I had something magical & pithy to say here that would make it evaporate. Someone rooting for you from Flyover country will have to do for now.
I've been leery of seeing the Indy movie because, well, Crystal Skull. But almost everyone says it's great, so I'm on it.
The community outreach is awesome! Some if the critters will be more thankful than you'll ever know in many years to come.
About the garrotte - grief is like that. It's not like a 12 step plan, which you can follow point by point, and then you're done. Part of it stays with you. What you're doing now is encapsulating it with good memories, and that'll help you bounce back when it hits you.
Take care, the both of you. Or the three of you, pooch included.

P.S. A little doo-wop couldn't hurt, could it?
A little doo-wop in moderation is always okay. Just not, you know, Sha Na Na...
