• 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.

    Happy Birthday Amber!

    Amber turned 10 today. I can’t believe my baby has been here for an entire decade! Where did the time go?

    I didn’t buy her any presents. Instead I offered her the chance to pick out $100 worth of clothes and she jumped on that. That might not seem like the best present for most 10 year olds…but Amber is a diva and LOVES shopping for clothes. She got two cute dresses, on cute shirt, and one Avril sweatshirt with a tank to wear under it. Oh, and a pair of shoes. $100 sure doesn’t go very far.

    We went to Asahi (formerly Kobe) for dinner. We shared a table with a family who was there to celebrate their mother’s birthday. There was a birthday at every table! Amber was disappointed because she didn’t get her ice cream but we had cake when we got home so she got over it.

    Next month Amie turns 13. Lord help me.
