So that dog I talked about previously is not shown on the website anymore. I hope that is a good thing. I was so saddened at seeing him there that I felt compelled to do something. Of course with the large brood I have now there was not much in a physical sense that I could do. That left only other types of energy. What else could I do?... I asked the universe to send the dog back home by helping the owner find a way to continue taking care of him. Also, I hoped the guy missed him so much that he absolutely had to get him back!
 I"l let you know if I see them out walking again.

Hurray for Elephants

It' so sad; everyday I have some kind of encounter with an animal and it gets me teared up. Usually it'to passing a dead animal on the side of the highway on my way  to  work.But today there was something different. Everyday I check the animal control website looking  to see if  one of our past cats might be there under lost cats, or else turned in from someone who could no longer keep them. Today I saw my neighbor's dog under adoptable pets page. I used to see him walking him 9 years ago when I was walking my first two dogs who've since passed.  In  the years since then I'don't see him walking that dog as I walked  my  two current dogs.It would be a bittersweet sight for me. But that man seemed so devoted to that dog and walked him with such dedication no  matter the weather.  They seemed very bonded.
    The website said the owner turned him in because they could no longer care for him. The dog is having blood work before he can be adopted. I wonder  what's wrong with him? He still looks very healthy. In fact, he looks the same as did when I first saw him. I can only imagine what the situation could be. Certainly the dog is old, but would someone turn him in after all those years because they didn' want to deal with him in his old age? He didn'the seem like the type to do that. Maybe he truly cannot afford to care for the dog due to what may be wrong with him!If that is the case, I wish I could do something  to  help .  I wish I could   think  of  something different than what's out there now to help these animals.
   But, at least things will be a little better for elephants now that Ringling Brothers will retire theirs by 2018. (See Ringling Brothers).

Well, I don'the know about the majority of people, but I'very got my hackles up about this new place Rick and the gang are in. I'm feeLing that now that they've rested, eatten, and cleaned up, they should blow that place. ...too much been there, done that Deja vu.

Fresh Start

So, this will be my new blog.  Well, it's been a while. And  what a different person I must be than I was a few short years ago.  Even at this age every new day brings new realizations. I thought people stopped growing mentally at some point. It seemed when I was little grownups grew up and stayed at that adult age the rest of their life. What I mean is they stopped developing mentally. What I find with myself is that my brain seems to do double time. I see new perspectives on old ideas as well as speculate about what I thought I knew not being what I thought it was. The bits are always being flipped, what is real and what is not, death not being final,  etc.

We' talk more later. I want to explore a new craft project before the next episode of 'The Walking Dead'  comes on.
