Today the thought is not profound: You've gotta do what you've gotta do (or not, as the case may be). Don't feel badly. It will come, in time. Take care.Austenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11544910614773892868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7154679782170119347.post-57103292946225870402008-03-19T20:32:00.000-03:002008-03-19T20:32:00.000-03:00thanks J.thanks J.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00260575133577123845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7154679782170119347.post-48096481214759779572008-03-19T19:43:00.000-03:002008-03-19T19:43:00.000-03:00It's okay, Susan.

If you'd felt joy and relief when you had Mac in the car, that would tell you something, but you felt sick and anxious, and that tells you something too.

The retriever mix black boy did not tug at my heart. <BR/><BR/>Although I came SO close to bringing home a 5 year old Chesapeake Bay retriever/chocolate lab mix named Mac. Very handsome, gentle, calm and 110 lbs. I'm ashamed to say that I signed the papers and had him in the car and when we started to back away I just felt sick ... that "what am I doing" sick anxious feeling. I had to take him back inside and rip up the adoption papers and stand there feeling kind of humiliated and say to the woman I can't do it ...I can't take him home. <BR/><BR/>I'm exhausted, and slightly ashamed of myself. I've called or emailed all the women who I know at the shelter and apologized for my erratic behaviour.<BR/><BR/>I feel like I have been, have put myself, through the ringer with this dog thing.<BR/><BR/>That's the story.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00260575133577123845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7154679782170119347.post-71085422475856238242008-03-19T12:51:00.000-03:002008-03-19T12:51:00.000-03:00I'm sure you'll let us know how things turn out. ...I'm sure you'll let us know how things turn out. Just letting your mind be blank and quiet can be so relaxing, and can also be so hard to achieve! The hamster wheel just spins and spins. Oh well, hope everything turns out well with your vehicle and the possible new boy.J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07490109332475074631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7154679782170119347.post-26503887444491361222008-03-19T11:17:00.000-03:002008-03-19T11:17:00.000-03:00clouds and lovely coloured jelly beans.....clouds and lovely coloured jelly beans.....BumbleVeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13272892605379537233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7154679782170119347.post-55176937609448883922008-03-19T10:59:00.000-03:002008-03-19T10:59:00.000-03:00If I had to bet, I'd bet that baby will be coming ...If I had to bet, I'd bet that baby will be coming home with you.Mary D in Texashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15356024098033698785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7154679782170119347.post-82601460340281022032008-03-19T06:46:00.000-03:002008-03-19T06:46:00.000-03:00Im just heading off to bed, but thought id check i...Im just heading off to bed, but thought id check in to see if you are up yet.
