We are looking at some possible snow and ice in Oklahoma tonight. I am hoping it is enough for them to close our office but not enough to lose power and keep me from enjoying a free day off. :)
I have just finished responding to the last few emails I received from you guys regarding your fur babies. I adored each and every one of your stories and pictures. I read them all and will re-read them again before posting the pictures. I was originally going to get the fur baby blog done last week but as you know that didn't happen. Now that I have answered everyone (and if you haven't sent in an email to me and want to GO FOR IT!) I am ready to start my blog post. However, it is a big job because there are lots of great pics to go through so be patient with me.
I am touched by how many of you adopted dogs that had been previously abused and/or neglected. So many of you have commented to me how special I am for helping Sweetheart but I think you guys need to look in the mirror because you will see a special person staring right back at you! I do not think of myself as special for rescuing Sweetheart and I bet you guys don't see yourself as special for adopting a rescue dog. But you are and I guess I am too.
This blog has shown me how many wonderful people there are out there and how much each one of you love your fur babies just as much (if not more, I have seen how spoiled these dogs are in these pictures HAHA) as I love all of mine. So I want to thank each of you for what you have done and continue to do for your fur babies.
One of my favorite quotes, I do not know who said it, is: "Adopting one greyhound won't change the world but it will change the world for that one greyhound". I think Sweetheart definitely embodies this saying!
Hope you all have had a good week. I have been in an Eeyore mood the last couple of days. I hope I get in a Pooh mood soon.

Jess, I hope you get your snow day.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your lovely email. I'm looking forwad to seeing all the other fur babies.
I sure hope you got your snow day! I've been home sick all week, and I would actually prefer to go back to work at some point! lol
ReplyDeleteI look at our dogs and while all four of them are adopted, including the German Shepherd, none of them were really what I'd consider a rescue. They weren't in danger, just waiting for the right place for them to come along. I look at Sweetheart as a true rescue because she was in danger. But it doesn't really matter, because what you call it, because they are mine and that's what really matters to me! :)
how did you fare?
