I have so many things that have gone on I have no idea where to start on an update!!!!
Well, let's hear them, Pam!
Pam, you dodn't need to worry about whether people here are with their spouses or not, we are all going through difficult but 'learning' times, and we are all here for you, whatever your situation.
One day you will look back on all this and no, not laugh*, but you won't feel like you have FAILED. You will have grown, I promise you. You will be on to better thigs, for sure, and better times.

Yes, Pam! Let's hear about the dog activities and the new puppy! Like LNL said, we don't care what forum you stake a claim on, we just wish you the best life there could possibly be for Pam!

I sit at the front desk and got to see all the flower deliveries yesterday. Rough day.
I have an adorable new puppy.
She is 9 weeks old now and I have had her almost 2 weeks. Obviously I didn't need another dog but I went with neighbor M to look at the litter and just couldn't forget this little darling. So, talked with another friend of mine and we went back to see her, friend liked her and her parents temperaments as well as I did so we brought this little girl home.
Every new house with new carpet needs a puppy, right??? That is ok, this house is for the kids and I and she lets me know sometimes she needs out.
This past Saturday the kids and I left the house shortly after 9 am and didn't return till 7 pm!!! Boy was I wiped out!!!!!!!
Frostbyte did very well in his obedience class. Tara was off for some reason in agility. Then we met my vet and she picked up puppy and Breeze to take them to her house for play time with her kids and to vaccinate the puppy for me. Next Shara and I worked with the sheep on some more control and new activities. We took the sheep in and out of their pen. I think they thought we were nuts we did it so many times.
Then we met the vet and picked up puppy and Breeze. Puppy was worn out!!!
Next met a friend at 5:30 back in town and worked Tara again on the agility, she was still off, not sure what that was about.
Then just before dark I laid a couple of short tracks and introduced Shimmer to tracking!!!
He impressed me. He is my shy sheltie and he got out of the van bouncing! Maybe he was just so glad it was finally his turn to get out of the van!!
Sunday we were scheduled to work sheep again but it was pouring down rain and I was wiped out and achey so decided the last thing I wanted to do was play in the rain and mud with sheep. We stayed home and snuggled most of the day on the sofa.

You are right! I need to remember how far I have come.
I feel better now that day is over. The week is settling in to more normal.
Although my emotions got the better of me Tuesday and I had a disagreement with G.
I found out that D's A that I had mailed FB's papers to for them to get D to sign them; mailed the papers to D. So on top of Monday was pretty emotional and the deal on the papers; a couple of small things G did hit my sensitive spots from time with D and I just sort of lost it.
Sent him an apology e-mail yesterday morning and heard back from him last night. So thank goodness a friendship that I thought I had lost I hadn't.
