Five of the holiday boarders are now here, with several more to come. It feels a little like the land of the lost tonight as everyone has some little angle to their story. Next week's arrivals will bring a little more life and laughter to what is right now a rather somber collection. The two tiny-littles have an ailing mom, recovering from surgery, and dad is gone for work for the next few weeks. One of the bigs is here until flight arrangements can be made for her to relocate out of state as her home has just broken. Another is recovering from ortho surgery while her mom is traveling. Luther still isn't talking about his backstory, but at least he appears to be over his intestinal distress.
And my love, Tess, is here and she is doing very, very badly. I long ago crossed over a professional line with this dog and have been in tears much of tonight, especially when she fought through her sedative-fog to drag herself off the nice ortho bed I'd set up for her, and struggle the 7-8 steps it took just to get to the bare floor at my feet instead. We don't deserve dogs. We really don't.

Oh Peg, I'm so sorry about Tess. You two will be in my thoughts... You are lucky to have one another! Stay strong, and take care of yourself -- those furkids need you. Happy Holidays!
And for all, thank God they have their angelpeg. Every heartache you take on is one that's eased for them.
Sweet Tess, hope she will be comfortable. I agree with Crowzma, I too think you are an angel with invisible wings. You have such a big heart. Have a good weekend xo
I miss my dogs so much. I know all of their loving people and they are so grateful for your love and care.
