It's a new day!

Happy Thursday everyone!

                            This is what I saw when I walked into the lab this morning.


What a stunning sunrise! I take this as a sign from the universe that everything is going to be "brighter" from now on:)

Thank you for all your prayers and well-wishes for Junior. I'm happy to report that he is doing much better. He is eating, drinking, and playing on his own now so I think the worst is over:) Yet, I'm fearful that he could go downhill again. I don't know why I have this negative thought in the back of my head. Maybe just in case he does go to kitty heaven I can handle it better? I don't know. If you can explain that one to me I'm all ears:)

I have some fun adventures to share with you before Junior was sick but I'll save them for later. Life has been pretty basic : feed  Junior, clean, feed junior, homework, feed junior, bed...oh yes, I did eat in between those tasks but nothing blog-worthy.

I hope to be back with a vengeance soon enough but this week really took a lot out of me emotionally. I have this problem and its called " I CARE TOO MUCH." I cried on Ryan's shoulder, over the phone to my mom and family, and even when writing to you on the blog. My grandma (who has Alzheimer's) even asked how my "baby" was. She saw him when I brought him home to the coast with me and now she asks every time I see her. So sweet:) My heart is definitely worn on my sleeve and I cannot help but give 100% to something/someone that needs my help. Call me weak, call me whatever you want but I think this quote sums it all....

'Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all. ~ Alfred Lord Tennyson


Thank you for your patience as I'm trying to figure this all out!
Stay tuned as later this afternoon I have an amazing giveaway for you!!!
XOXO

Heavy Heart

Hello all,

    I am writing you today with a heavy heart. Junior is very ill and I'm devastated. It all started on Saturday afternoon with him just sleeping all the time and barely eating. Then Sunday it got worse and he was very wobbly when he walked (which he rarely did). I took him to the vet and told me the possible worst case scenario and yet he said he could be wrong. As the testing and overnight hospitalization was too much I opted for an IV drip with antibiotics. I noticed a change in him (for the better) when we got home. He started to walk more stable and he wanted food! He is still eating today and is less wobbly so I'm hopeful. He still sleeps a lot but I guess that's a good thing. I'm pretty upset and have been really down as I feel totally helpless. I know some people would just say "oh well, so is life" but I'm not one of those people. I need to do everything I can so that IF the time comes, I know I tried my best. Right now he needs lots of prayers and good vibes, and I know I can count on you guys for all that..and more:)

I'll keep you updated but I may not be around the 'sphere that much.

Thank you and love you guys!!
