• sharismom Posted : 11/17/2006 11:34:45 AM Yep!!  I just called the shelter and he's back from his neutering.  I am picking him up after work.   I got his crate all set up, the big dish of water down, food at the ready, a can of pumpkin just in case, and a big squeaky toy.  I remembered to cover the back seat in the truck and have his new collar & leash with me.   I'm a little nervous, hoping that it's all going to work out and we're both happy.  Had a few fleeting crazy thoughts at 3:30 a.m. - OMG what am I doing?  Not enough sleep for several days in a row gears up the worry-wart in me.  I'm really okay with this decision - I haven't felt this happy in a long time.   Thanks for remembering, Gina.  And thanks to everyone for the good wishes in the other thread.  I'll post pics when I can.  Want to get a few "befores" when he comes home and some "afters" in a few weeks to compare.   I think I'm gonna love this dog! 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• bragg1120 Posted : 11/17/2006 11:56:13 AM [sm=clapping%20hands%20smiley.gif] I'm so happy & excited for you!    Unfortunately, I have the same 'crazy thoughts' you mentioned in the wee hours of the morning... no sleep or lack of can drive you nuts!  I really feel like it's right since you mentioned not being this happy for a long time.  I think you are gonna be two peas in a pod!  []  Can't wait to see the before and after pics... I did the same thing when we got Trixie and my oh my, what a difference a happy, loving home makes! 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• sharismom Posted : 11/17/2006 12:33:50 PM Thanks for the vote of confidence Missy!   I have low-grade chronic depression and it's been difficult for me to feel completely "up" since I lost Shari.  I love my cats, but they are not terribly motivating when I'm having a bad day.  The last thing I need when I'm down is to stay in bed and oh how those felines love to sleep! 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• bragg1120 Posted : 11/17/2006 1:19:07 PM Anytime, Tina.  I'll gladly be your cheerleader!  []    I never knew how depression could really get a hold on someone until I witnessed my FIL dealing with it and then began having issues with it myself.  Just having a happy moment stay for a little while was hard.  My Gracie sounds like your cats lol  Often, she's not aware if I'm having a bad day... not like FeFe was.    I believe Bear is gonna be just as good for you as you are for him!  Have a safe trip! 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• cakana Posted : 11/17/2006 4:28:00 PM Tina - I think I might be as excited as you about this, and yeah, I'd have probably agonized a bit over the decision too.  Heck, I agonize over a t-shirt at Target "do I really need it?"..."don't I have another like this?"....yeesh, it's awful sometimes.  Bear is gonna be an awesome new friend though and the cherry on top is that you're doing such a wonderful thing by bringing him into your life.  I can't wait for more pictures. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.
