That may sound cheesy and I realize that "special" does not even express how touched and moved I am by your love for dogs and what you are doing with your gifts. And yet it is simply magnificent.laundrygirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10414456180378176592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7352133.post-74533813576683550152008-07-24T10:31:00.000-05:002008-07-24T10:31:00.000-05:00Jessie, I feel blessed that our paths crossed on 7...Jessie, I feel blessed that our paths crossed on 7/21. I don't believe in coincidences... the universe brought us together through the brave spirit and gentle heart of Ode. As I held her in my arms yesterday, and got lots of kisses from her, i am reminded of how much we can learn from the resilient, forgiving, and loving nature of dogs. Pet Haven is grateful to Karen Good (of Red Lake Rosie's Rescue) for entrusting Ode into our care. We will shower her with love and safety... to me, Ode represents hope and love. <BR/><BR/>I am grateful our paths crossed....Marilouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04754311331904306582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7352133.post-61798899641449144972008-07-23T13:52:00.000-05:002008-07-23T13:52:00.000-05:00Oh, that dog made me sob.

Bye, bye pounds, finally. My son will be 10 years old, and so is my extra poundage.<BR/><BR/>I'm trying to teach myself to draw again. It seems I have forgotten a lot of what I have learned.<BR/><BR/>I open my mouth when I used to keep it closed. In a nice way, but my feelings count too, and so, there they are. With my heart pounding in my mouth.<BR/><BR/>I cried when I saw Ode. Who could ever do a thing like that on purpose? ugh. Such a beautiful creature. Lovely eyes.<BR/><BR/>Keep on keepin' on :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17861627260044155180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7352133.post-78307963056513869232008-07-23T07:28:00.000-05:002008-07-23T07:28:00.000-05:00Wowza girl.
