Hello!

I'm trying to save the world again.  And I just keep ending up with a broken heart.   UGH!    Up north this past weekend I saw the kitty that has been hanging around for a couple of months.   The thought of her being out in the cold just about killed me.    So I went to an abandoned shack nearby, (she followed me) I made a bit of a shelter with some bedding in it.  And then I went to the store to buy food.  I fed her lots!   And then found other places to stash more food, in case the critters (racoons, porcupines and etc) steal her food.   I know she'll find it there as I've put food there in the past and she found it.   I think I may have a home for her.  YEAH!!   I'm waiting to hear back in the next day or two.   Please keep your fingers crossed that it works out!   I want her to have a family so bad!   I'm even willing to pay for the spaying of her.  Which is going to anger my hubby to no end, but hell I gotta do what I can!  

 

Then there is my "neighbor's" dog.  This poor boy!   He's been an outside dog for 3+years now.   His dog house is in shambles, he's on a chain and uuuugghhhh!  I don't know how often they feed him!   It kills me!!   How can you have an animal and treat it like that?   MORONS!  

So I bought him some food too!  

My hubby is good friends with this neighbor and he really wanted to buy them a nice gift for the holiday.  I laughed and said O.K.  (I thought we weren't buying gifts for people this year).   I've decided to spend what I would have on this "nice gift" the hubby had in mind on their dog.  That's right they are going to be unwrapping a 40 lb bag of dog food, a 10lb box of dog biscuts and then a beautiful bale of straw.   OH OH OH and don't forget the case of canned dog food.  And on top of the presents will be some really cute dog toys too! MERRY Merry you morons!

I of course will keep a bit of food at my house and continue to feed and water him myself when i'm there! 

UUUGGGHHH!!!      

I've got the boys in my shop keeping their eyes peeled for scrap lumber to build him a new house as well.  

Poor dog!

And you would think a dog being chained up would become mean and whatever.  Not this boy he's such a luv bug.  He never jumps on me, he never grabs stuff from my hand, it's always very gentle and loves attention that I give him.   I thought about calling calling the police on them for the abuse, hubby said he would divorce me.   I thought about kidnapping the dog, hubby said they would know it was me and I couldn't keep him and he would have to divorce me.   I seriously thought about taking a gun over there and ending the dogs suffering myself, but I'm too big of a woos and would probably end up in jail. 

 

hmmmmm I need to think about this.... get an old dirty stinky dog that loves me unconditionaly and never talks back and loose the hubby.  Dog and I live happily ever after.

 

Or watch the poor dog suffer and then listen to my hubby bitch about the most stupid things in the world and keep threating to divorce me over doing what's right for the critters.   Hmmmmmmm what would you do? 

 

Don't worry, I'm not leaving the hubby, he's not leaving me, I'm not going to kill the dog, I'm pmsing, pissed off at the world of cruel humans and just doing some serious venting here!

 

O.K. well we finally finished up shopping for our adopted family.  It was so much fun!!!   But I'll tell you something... family and friends of mine are bombarding me with negativity.   It's unbelievable. 

 

Here are just some of the things I've heard.  And my responses to them.

 

 

 

 

 

So if you know someone that is doing the adopting of a family and you have questions about it.  Shut your pie hole! Instead of being negative, go and get a gift for someone that may not have any this year.  Or donate your time and your money to an important cause.  You know there is a Salvation Army in your neighborhood and what about Toys for tots?   I'm sure there is someone somewhere that would love even a moment of your time.   Think about that you negative ones!

ttfn

 

 

 

 

Well I did it.

I called and emailed my family and the hubby's family and said no gifts from us or for us please.   We have decided to adopt a family in need this holiday season.  We signed up for a single mom with four boys all under the age of 10.  (Whew!  That makes my head spin just hearing that.)  Guess what's on the list.... clothes and coats.  How sad is that?   No toys or anything mentioned.  I have to call the Community Sharing Program back to see if they have any more information.   i.e.   favorite colors, super  heros and if they get toys and what about food.  

 

If you don't believe in "signs" then stop reading now.    When I walked out the door for lunch today, I saw a paper floating in the wind towards me.  I stopped and picked it up.   It was a sales flyer for k*o*hls dept store and guess what's on sale today....Kids COATS!   50% actually!   I put it in my car and when I returned from lunch there was the list on my fax machine. 

 

Sometimes you just need to free your mind and the signs are all around you.  I think I see a lot of the signs but don't always get the meaning of them.  I did get this one. 

 

O.K. I've got to get back to work and get some things done... shopping to do after work tonight.

xoxo

O.k. well this is going to be short, (I know you are laughing saying YEAH RIGHT!) 

 

Family Drama Chapter 78,341:

 

My mom is coming to stay a while with me again.   (I'm going to be fine, It's  going to be great, I'm going to be fine)  However it's going to be a long stay this time.   I'm not sure if she will ever leave.  My psycho sister and her got into a huge blow out and my sister got physical (grrr) and mom left.  Now let me explain that my mom is super frail, her bones are extremely brittle and she has already broken her back 3 times and weighs like 112lbs soaking wet.   And psycho bitch weighs 175+ lbs and is well psycho!  I would love to knock her on her ass for this one.   

I haven't seen mom yet, she says she's not hurt (liar) and she's coming today.  

 

So this should be interesting.  Psycho sister has tried to call me like 7 or 8 times and I wont answer.  I have no desire to hear her side of this stupid mess.  

 

I'm going to be fine, It's going to be great, I'm going to be fine, It's going to be great,  I'm going to be fine
