• About three years ago I joined a rescue group. What started out as holding a leash for a couple of hours on Sundays turned into a whole new way of life for my family.

      There have been many changes in my life over the past year, all of them for the better. One thing I did lose, though, was my rescue group.

      I thought I had found a new rescue where I felt like I belonged. Unfortunately they didn't turn out to be what I thought they were. I'm walking away from dog rescue. I just can't do it any more. I feel like I'm fighting a losing battle and it hurts.

      I've just started volunteering with rabbits. I can't walk away from animals all together, I feel like I have to do something. This way I can give myself a much needed break from the politics of rescue but still make a difference.

      At first this blog was strictly about rescue. Then it became about my personal life. Now, finally, it's a little bit of both.

  • Who’s The Best???

    Who has the best boyfriend in the entire universe?

    You might think you do. And you might think your husband was before you were married. But you are all wrong.

    IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII have the best boyfriend in the universe! At least until the next time he needs to go to the doctor. Then he’ll be on my bad list again.

    We did Mother’s Day today over here because there’s a lot going on tomorrow. Rich is coming to Sunday School and Church with me. Then we’re going to walk some dogs at the rescue. After that Rich and the girls are going to visit his mother while I meet with the new president of the rescue’s board of directors. Some people are stepping down from executive positions and there’s a little animosity among the higher ups. I sent a couple of emails within a committee mailing list and somehow the new president recieved them as well. Within a couple of hours she sent me an email asking to meet with me tomorrow so she can let me know what is going on and why. As of now most of the volunteers are in the dark and most of us are worried. So, I’ll find out what the hell is happening and I’ll also find out what her plans are for me. She said she has some and I’m excited about that.

    Anyway, back to the best boyfriend…

    Remember that Keurig coffee maker I fell in love with at work? I’ve been firing that puppy up a couple times a day. And I’ve also started drinking actual coffee. My favorite is Vermont Country Blend. Today I became the owner of my very own Keurig coffee maker! For Mother’s Day! Squeee!!!

    We also went shopping, trying to find something for my mother for Mother’s Day but I struck out. I might have to order somethihg online. She’s out of town this weekend so I’ve still got a few days for something to get here. Then we went to Outback for dinner.

    It’s been a pretty darn good day, if you overlook the hyperness of my children. I don’t know what got into them today but they were so loud! Giggling and bouncing around and driving me insane.

    I’ve got to head to bed soon so I can get up in the morning. I don’t know how well I’ll sleep because I’ve had two cups of coffee this evening. I had to break the coffee maker in you know.

    I hope the rest of you have a fabulous Mother’s Day with your kids…and if you don’t have kids I hope you have a great day with your own mom.
