What I'm Reading This Week #13
Friday is finally here! Can I get a woot woot?! (Cheers to those who actually did it.) The week felt long to start but then before we knew it...blam! Friday. We had the countertop dude out to measure and template Tuesday. The lady who made the appointment said it would be 2-3 weeks after so I'm hoping for sooner than later so I can FINALLY reveal the bathroom to you guys! Kind of stinks though because we were told they would take the sink/faucet with them and that was a big fat no. We were looking forward to getting that big azz box out of the house. Soon enough I guess. You may have noticed a little zhuzh to the site (probably more for those on laptops) but I figured it was time and I think they retired my previous theme anyway. So it's a little minimalistic but there wasn't a ton to choose from on the free side so I took what I could get. Enjoy. 😄 I sat down and did a spreadsheet of my seeds, when they were...
It's a shame that Polka didn't get a long life but for a llama it was definitely a life in the spotlight and I think that was fitting. It's true that we both thought that whole thing about her being a diva was just something they made up on their TV show, but once we saw her in person there was no denying that she had that heir about her. Have fun in Paris Polka Spot!
ReplyDeleteWhat an incredible story. And I love how they say she "went to Paris". That's such a cool way to frame it in your mind to ease the pain. I am more affected emotionally by animal stories than anything else. I think it's because of their innocence and unconditional emotions that really make my heart bleed. I'm such a goof that every time I see road kill I say a prayer that that animal/bird/etc., is in heaven now. And on some of these roads, that's a lot of praying! Thanks for sharing this and I'm thrilled they are getting such an outpouring of love. That will bring some good healing to them.
ReplyDeleteNo "non-traditional" animals, but so many dogs and cats have left their paw-prints on my heart over the years. For a time after we lost our last (of 3) Maltese dogs a few years ago, we had no pets. It was a quiet time at our house after so many years of always having a pet, and eventually my son talked me into a Bulldog. He paid for her, she was his dog, but hubs and I fell in love with Lola too. When we lost her after she got hit by a car (due to my own carelessness-I will never forgive myself) we were devastated, so son generously paid for another Bulldog puppy. Juno came into our lives almost three years ago and has become our daughter, we love her dearly, and after the sudden accidental loss of our first bulldog, we are overly protective of her. She went on vacation with us to Yellowstone a few weeks ago, we couldn't bear to leave her with anyone, and who would we trust? I'm glad Miss Polka Spot had such a great life and is now enjoying herself in "Paris."
