Thank you all for the welcome.
LOL Big Dog, you sure? You're bound to know how we get. I have 3 American Eskimos (2 Reskies & 1 since a tiny puppy- she's going to be 8 July 1), an Eskie/ CattleDog mix, a little ginger boy that no one knows what he is but he's very handsome, & a <7 lb Boston/ Chiweenie (named Zeus. Zeus the Moose) My avatar is Mia. She's the one having the health issues. She is blind from birth but in no way a "poor thing". Her sass made me fall in love with her.
I took a hiatus from rescue when our 15 yr old Eskie got sick a few years ago with a degenerative thing (we lost her last June). Mia has some kind of neurological thing going on since last Fall & even A&M isn't sure what's going on with her. Only that she has had "micro bleeds" in her brain. She has always been in God's Hands & He hasn't let her down yet. Even if I lose her, I understand that she is still His.
I don't know if or how much I'll be getting back into rescue. My life pretty much revolves around my dogs, so Y'All can file me under the 'Nuts I've Known' category. I'm weird as hell but I do my best to be a decent & nice person.
Needless to say, I love reading about everybody's fur kids. (I can't wait to see the Sugar Glider photos. They're so cute!) Oh. And I've esp enjoyed the MG threads, too (So sorry! I've forgotten your nick- if you're reading this) When I was much younger, I was very into sports cars. (Born into it. I came home from the hospital in a TR 2 & a half. My dad raced cars for years, motorcycles for a little while, then boats.) I settled on Jeeps because they're the perfect fusion of sports car & 4 WD, but if I had money to burn, I would have another (big- 100/6 or 3000) Austin Healey. Or maybe an Alpha.
I watch the left through my fingers, in horror & dread. I took a break while CC was gone. There was nothing to take the edge off.
I get my political news from FR & Drudge (also American Thinker & PJ, sometimes. I got disgusted with the others because of all the Mitt shills).
I love the Cave because it kinda tempers my reaction. You all have a great sense of humor. (Now,) Politics is like a train wreck you can't look away from. Ya might as well laugh. If you can.
My fondest wish is to someday soon stumble across some place that is "stuck" in the 50s or 60s & live the rest of my days there, in peace. I am soooo sick of the crazy.
ps I really, really, really love this
Unique to the Cave as far as I know.
