For those new to the blog, my follow-up Friday provides me with an opportunity to update or revise a post from the previous week.
You know sometimes you post about something and you need an update but it doesn’t warrant a whole blog. Or sometimes someone made a comment that really resonated with you. Yup, Follow-Up Friday baby!
What Happens On Sunday – Author’s Thought
There are times when like Sampson, I’d like to lie in my drink. I’m thinking a gigantic Margarita. I imagine it this way: rimming the pool with salt and just sitting or floating around with a gigantic straw in my mouth, licking the sides of the pool. LOL
Now that’s a cool and refreshing beverage!
Aliens Took My Dog – Author’s Note:
Since that day whenever Delilah is in the bathroom I put her in a down stay on the rug. Some days she does better than others, but that’s ok. She and I are both trying.
WTF Wednesday (A Day Late) – Author’s Note
Sorry for the snafu with this post. Like I said, I wrote it, I tweaked it, I published it and then something didn’t feel right. So I took it down, and I used the Whoo Hoo piece and made it the post.
After I took it down and read your comments I realized you all are right, it is my blog and I need to publish what I want, if you don’t want to read it that is your choice. Besides we all know, “Well behaved women rarely make history.” 🙂
When I tried to repost it, it ended up posting behind Whoo Hoo Wednesday, so I trashed it yet again and apparently I trashed it correctly this time because I lost the one comment I had, which was from Frankie and Ernie verifying that yes, that is a Robin’s egg.
So on to the post itself, first I want to say, I was incorrect in saying the puppy died after 17 days. The article did not specify the time frame, it said the puppy died days later. I’m not sure where I got that 17 from.
If I’m being truthful here (which I strive to always be) I think the puppy story really did me in. It’s so horrific and disgusting and 2 Brown Dawgs is right, the puppy shouldn’t have needed to suffer.
There are times even in the work of rescue where we have to realize we cannot save every single one. It’s sad and it sucks, but it’s the truth.
I’ve been really sad the last couple of days and can’t quite put my finger on it.
More than likely it’s probably the damn menopause. Honest to God, I’ve been through a divorce, lost my father in an accident at 13, lost all of my grandparents by the time I was 25, raised three girls on a one income salary, went to college while raising three girls and I can’t handle menopause.
I hate being emotional and that puppy story made me emotional. I’m not a person prone to violence, but I want to hurt that man. My one thought is that when he gets to prison, which I’m pretty certain he will at some point, that he gets what he deserves because God knows the legal system in this country isn’t going to give it to him.
Whew, I’m done and climbing down from the soap box now.
I hope you had a great week. Stay safe and have an enjoyable Memorial Day Weekend.
