After only four hours of sleep, Mommy was awakened by Daddy leaving for work, and you two ready to start your day. Mommy had Allie on my mind big time. So, Mommy set the ball rolling and explained to you both that we would be visiting a little blue healer pup named Allie. You both ran around the house yelling, "Allie," "Allie!" Unfortunately, Mommy obviously never paid any attention to the Shelter hours, they didn't open until noon. Bodhi, for whatever reason, the moment we pulled up to the building, you started pointing and crying hysterically. There were no dogs visible, Mommy still can't figure out what upset you, but you kept yelling in between cries, "Mommy leave!" Mommy called Daddy to let him know the shelter wasn't open and that you had a complete melt-down, but he was already on his way, so we met up with him and were planning on going to a trophy store to look at plaques for our house, when Grandmoo called. We had stopped by her house prior to going to the shelter. Grandmoo wanted to know if you two could come over for a quick visit. Mommy and Daddy drove you over while we ran our errands.
After Mommy and Daddy got done and picked you both back up from Grandmoo's, Mommy took you two home to feed you lunch and then we were off to try the shelter again. This time went much smoother. You two loved little Ms. Allie, and more importantly, Ms. Allie loved you two :) Daddy even liked her. So, the next step is seeing how she gets along with Mr. Arlo. Mommy really wants to foster her, but the foster program is just getting started and the lady said their program doesn't work the way Mommy intended it to work... taking a dog in to give it more time to find a home while allowing other strays to stay at the shelter... WTH!??? Then how do you plan on utilizing a foster system? Mommy is going to get this bull changed and re-organized. If Allie isn't adopted, Mommy will foster her, mark my words! Mommy is smart enough to know that I need a test run before committing to caring for Allie long term. Yes, Mommy would adopt to save her, but she's so neat, I'm certain I could find her the perfect home. Mommy just has so much on my plate caring for you two toddlers, Mr. Arlo who isn't always "user friendly," as well as caring for two new stray kittens. I just don't want to spread myself to thin and everyone lose out because of it. So, we'll see how this all goes in the next few weeks.
After our shelter adventure, you two were about to pass out. Mommy rushed you home and got you both down for a nap, and Mommy so wanted a nap, but I pushed on and worked on house projects instead. Since you two went down later than usual, yoen u two slept later than normal. When you awakened, Mommy started dinner and got you two fed. When Daddy finally arrived home from work, Mommy finished mowing the lawn and you two had some Daddy time. Jude, Daddy says you cried for Mommy the entire time I was mowing and while I was doing a drop. When Mommy arrived home I took you two outside to play while I watered the lawn and flowers. You two were still tired but Mommy had to give you two a bath. After baths Mommy allowed you two to stay up until 10:30 p.m. playing with your little people, while Mommy cleaned up the house and put clothes away. It was then off to bed for Daddy and you two, but Mommy has another late night a head.
Tomorrow you two are going to Aunt Ti's while Mommy works in Lafayette. Lets hope for a happy day a part tomorrow :(
Sweet Dreams my sweet babes!
