I left work early today, went and paid for the doctors bill for next week..had my blood test done and raced home, very grateful that I could miss the traffic. All of this was done in a very robotic way. Do this, then that..slips this into place and postpone that. I think that my mind has kicked into survival mode. I think that this is the only way you control a terrible fear seeping into your soul. I know I will survive. Thats just what I do..i survive!!! Ek's a Dapper Dapper Muis, kyk hoe stap ek deur die Huis!

On a funnier note, I called my sister C this morning and she proceded to give me a lecture about the "New Dog". It went something like "Bratty, you should not be taking another dog...blah..blah..blah". I think sometimes she forgets that I am a grown woman, earning a living, loving a husband....i think she still sees me sometimes as her "Bratty Baby Sister"...but as usual, all ends well. By this afternoon she sent me the most beautiful SMS
It Read "A Dog is the only creature that loves you more than it loves itself"...beautiful, my sister. Thank you very much. It brightened up my day.
Right now, I am hoping to flop my head onto my feather cushions and get a good nights sleep. B has been sleeping very badly since I have been dosing him up with half of Chinas Ginseng...don't worry Angel..just 90 more days to go
Night everyone...sleep tight, let the angels guard your dreams

Shoo - you've been so busy with your posts! I've been out of touch since Friday!
Great that you're getting another doggy - I love the story! We have 2 dogs and 5 cats - and I would happily take on more animals. My mom is the same as your sis - always lecturing me about my animals. I'm sure she sometimes thinks that I try to 'replace' not having kids with having so many animals. I love the unconditional love that you get from creatures - and NO JUDGEMENT either!

I really hope the lap goes well. I totally agree with that robotic feeling. I think that is the 'mode' I went into earlier this year when I miscarried. We actually surprise ourselves with how much we can 'absorb'.
The picture of mouse/cat is brilliant. Keep that very powerful state of mind Girl !!
