A moment to paws
I love Codee so much. The more I see of animals that were separated from their families during the hurricane the more blessed I feel to have her with me. Just looking at her sweet little face both warms and breaks my heart. It warms it to know she is with me and it breaks it to think of all the furbabies out there that are missing and all of the people who don't have the sweet little faces, warm tongues and tiny snouts to see. I donated last week to both the Red Cross and the Humane Society. I couldn't donate as much as I wanted just b/c of my own financial situation but I did the best I could. I wish that I were already trained so that I could go down there and help counsel people. One of my professors went to do just that and it makes me feel better knowing they have someone who is such a calming influence. And I know that people keep placing much of the focus on the people who are down there and I understand and feel for them, especially the children, elderly and others who need special assistance but I can't help feeling my heart going out extra hard to the misplaced dogs and cats and other animals. Codee is such a huge part of my life...she is my heart (along with her daddy). It just makes me want to spend more time with her and make every minute count. So I am going to end this blog and go spend time with my furbaby. I'll write about my weekend and my classes tomorrow.

Thanks for the 3 birthday cards - that was very nice of you and very much appreciated - I think about the pets too - as I nestle in bed w/ my little furball w/ attitude named Annie. There are just so many horrible things about the hurricane - it's hard to take it all in. I limit my news watching - b/c I deal w/ crisis all day long and angry teenagers swearing at me, making lewd gestures, or pulling weapons out (that was fun). I read a non social work before bed - I'm now reading "The Body Project" which is a collection of girl's diaries entries from 1850 to the present. Very interesting. I just finished "Big Stone Gap" which was very good - fiction set in Abington, VA. Well - I should get some sleep - I'm going to a conference at Western State Hospital tomorrow. I'll let you know how it goes. Hope all is well.
Allison :)
