They are...everything. :)

A little tribute to my small fuzzies.. I may complain when they they poo (and even more when they don't and it costs $400 to fix!) Or when they eat anything that fits in their beaks. And when they wake me up at 4am.
But in the end, animals are so much better than people! They don't judge or hate. They love and have perfect loyalty. They're so much simpler than we are. Humans mess up the world. People have agendas and complexities, while a dog just wants to smell your butt.
My 7 little sweethearts have been there to hug me when nobody else was around to comfort me. They've tolerated being poked and prodded for my homework. They make me laugh and smile everyday.
They're the greatest blessing, and I can't believe there are people out there who don't appreciate and take care of them. On the way to class on Tuesday I saw a tiny little dog walking all alone on the side of a main road. I pulled into the next store driveway and got out to look for it, but by then I couldn't see it anywhere, and I was running late and had Missy in the car so I had to go. I really hope it's still alive and that it's owner or someone else found it and is taking care of it. I get it that animals escape and it's an accident and it's awful, but often it is preventable and people don't seem to care. That's what upsets me.
Last night I finally finished my last assignment. In the middle of it, the Vet called and asked if he could have some of Ruby and Pete's poo. I swear, I laughed so hard. But apparently the good bacteria in it can help to nourish a little baby rabbit he's treating, so of course we'd do anything to help!! :)
Today's class was surprisingly hard. Our teacher was asking us to write down goals for a year, 5 years, 10 years away. I can't think past the end of the week. So much depends on things out of my control right now and I don't want to get all anxious about it. I don't want to plan and be dissappointed that life doesn't care what I want. Already learned that lesson. Most of all, I don't want to picture a future without Opi being there. He barely said a word to me this morning and tonight, he's not having a good day. Mama's upset too, and I don't know what to say to her so I end up saying stupid things I can't believe I said. I need sleep, I'm so tired. I should clean up and go to bed now. oxoxo
