greetings from auntie camp...

good afternoon, my lovelies, 

as i type this it is currently 95 degrees out with a heat index of 106.  here at auntie camp, we're staying in as much as possible and when we have to go out, we go as early in the morning as possible.  then at dinner, we just hurry down the road as quick as i can get him to go.

he's a pretty slow walker.  i don't think they really take him for walks.  he stops at every sound, every breeze, every twitch of a blade of grass and he has to sniff E V E R Y T H I N G...

ugh...  my beastie boy was not a good walker because he wanted to play with everyone he saw and he was so big i couldn't hold him back very well.  this little buddy showed me the other day (luckily inside the house) that he knows how to sneak out of his harness so i have to be super careful when walking him.  if he gets loose i'd never catch him.

the only things i've done since auntie camp started is keep up with my mfta posts and water the garden, journal and some meditation.  i'm pretty much stuck like this all the time...

hee hee.  last night i literally slept with my back plastered against the wall and him plastered to the front of me.  it's a full-size bed and i had less than 1/3rd of it.  :-)

and of course, if i get up from my chair...

sneaky boy.  he's hard to get to move, too.  i guess he thinks it's his if he's in it.  

anywho... this has been quite the experience and i have learned some valuable lessons from it.  i know now that i am not a pet person anymore.  i don't mind having him for a few days up to a week.  and i don't mind looking after cats (if they are in their home) but i can't have a pet in my house.  between the fur everywhere, the smells (seriously his toots are like death) and the noises and general chaos.  it's just been too long and it's not for me anymore. 

i'm so grateful to have had this experience.  it is so much better than wondering and wondering until i would go and pick up a pet at the rescue to bring home and then be stuck with it or be someone who returns a pet to a rescue.  

that's all from auntie camp today.  he's over on the sofa, napping, and i'm gonna go take my meds and get ready for an online meditation class i want to take at 3.  have a great day.

hope you're able to stay cool

love & kisses & magical wishes...
