Sometimes it seems the things placed upon our hearts, that we want to do or feel we ought to do.....are beyond our ability to do.....frustrating...and yet, I feel compelled to ask myself why would it be on my heart if it is not for me to do? Which then quickly leads to more questions......Who placed it there? What purpose would (if I could act) it serve for me? others? Not just on the surface, but digging deeper...
to get to the heart of it.....and there yes, there it is....the answers. The why.... and.... what glorious freedom can be found in the answers.....

On my mind
My lunch, that leftover conference sandwich looked a little sketchy. Good thing that I only took a couple of bites.

The appointment I had for tomorrow was rescheduled. And it was about 24 hours within the appointed time. What's the rule for discount vs the charge for a no show?
But hey...it will only be a half day on a Friday!

It's supposed to be hot, like hot hot today. And humid. Ugh. Weather like this just seeps the energy from my bones. Hopefully, we won't have to do too much outside today.

My lil dachsie.....Heidi Grilla
Last week my lil baby started to have seizures (had 3 in 2 days). Started her on Phenobarb Fri PM...so none since. BUT she wasn't acting quite right....so was a watch & wait game.
Needless to say I have been on alert, watching her closely. She got worse first of this week, by Wednesday I had resigned myself that I was going to have to put her down. I made an appointment with our old vet to be seen tomorrow for evaluation & possibly having to say goodbye. Many sleepless hours & tears later, yesterday, she did a 360 degree turn. So I talked with our vet this am, cancelled the appointment I had for tomorrow, and said..I want to give her every chance now, and this could well be the "calm before the storm" scenario. At any rate, I am just going to wait & see what transpires. If need be, I will take her in to see the vet & go from there. With a pet & as several of you here know, it is a roller coaster sometimes...with any kind of neurological issues going on...you can just never know what/where/when. There is a suspicion she has a brain tumor...and their little brains are wired so funny, it is impossible to "predict" any given set of circumstances. So she had never stopped eating, pottying.....she would engage in social interactions with us. She did have lots of trouble keeping her hind legs under her...I have a mobility cart coming today, should we need it. So, I have breathed a small, ever so small sigh of relief in this positive turn of events. It isn't far from the recesses of my mind to know things can change in a heartbeat. I do have options & I will give her every.single.opportunity I can...so long as she isn't in any despair & has quality of life in her..which she does. Thanks for the texts, user reps, & PM's asking about my baby!! Your words & concern mean so much to us. I am certain I am again rambling...it has been such a difficult & heartbreaking week for us, esp. for Heidi. Keep her in good thoughts please...thanks...clay & Heidi........

My mind?
I hate when I second guess myself. It is like I say or do something and then think -- should I have? I get inside my head so much about it that it ends up making me feel foolish and from that --out of sorts. Bah. I guess I also need to work on having expectations --which is not always a good thing--sometimes it is like setting yourself up for a letdown. Bah, again.

 Little Guy received an exam this morning and continues to improve and show great progress. The eaglets flying skills have become more coordinated and is using both feet to land and no longer favorites the right leg. As part of his rehabilitation, the eaglet will continue to receive daily conditioning and live prey training (will spare you the video's of that  Once he successfully completes the live prey training, a release will be scheduled. |

On my mind: I have realized that I do not do rudeness very well. (right now you are likely saying "well, duh") but it is more than that. I am a pretty low-key person. That is to say I can let things roll off me--and I consider the whole picture (meaning: does this person impact my life in any way?, do I hold them dear?, etc.) before I make comment on the situation at hand.
However, when it comes to just blatant rudeness --the kind that just happens for no reason at all other than the person just wants to "be that way" and hands it out as though it is a nicely wrapped Christmas gift --and then when you catch the rudeness and question it-- they either ignore you-- or better yet-- respond as if they have no clue what you are talking about --At the very least --OWN your rudeness. Yes-- I do not do rudeness very well and find that I have less of a "let it roll off me" stance anymore. Sometimes, it makes me want to get more intro versus extro -verted. (end of the vent) |

Interesting above post and I do not do rudeness well either! Well to say that I don't handle rudeness when someone is rude to someone else and I witness it I guess I should stipulate!
More than once, I'v stuck my nose in when I felt someone was being rude to a retail clerk or some other similar situation and perhaps some day I may get a bullet between my eyes but I just can't stand back and not speak up! |

Lil Guy to return to the wild soon.
Lil Guy has been cleared for release by CROW's veterinary staff and will be returned to the wild in the near future.
He has been successful during live prey testing and continues to improve on the skills needed for catching live fish. His stay at CROW was extended to ensure vital hunting skills were effectively developed. In Florida, approximately 80 percent of a bald eagles diet is fish, so this will continue to be the focus for the remainder of the eaglets rehabilitation at #CROWClinic. We will be filming the release and will share all the details at a later date. |

on my mind: life changes
I feel like I’ve been in a play and following along with the script and sometimes adlibbing as unexpected action transpired. The show has been running for a long time allowing the actors to grow comfortable with the script to even change things up and to add new a actor to some scenes.
Then one day the play changed. Initially I didn’t realize it; I kept doing my part, playing my role…Once I realized the script was no longer useful I attempted to learn the new lines, to catch on to the action but the other actor wouldn’t share the script. I found myself confused, bewilder and at times rather frustrated. Expressing my thoughts and feelings resulted in blame, anger and no changes. I asked for some adjustments to the show and the roles being played….but both parties have to want the changes to occur in way that allows the play to continue, if it will or even can…. So I’m leaving the play formally ending my contract. It was not part of the plan, not what I thought I was signing up for that is for sure. It seems the other actor wanted to do a different show altogether than I had thought we’d agreed upon. I’m starting over and this time I’m going to write more of my own script, have a bit more say in the direction action goes, at least for some of the scenes I’m writing them all on my own…other scenes are going to written alongside someone new…with laughter, love, negotiation and playful banter….

Some of the choices I have made, both in the past and the here and now. The sacrifices my spouse has made for me in the past and how strong our marriage is right now. Her getting sick years ago actually made our marriage stronger. I'm thinking about my lack of help and support from her family. Don't people realize you only get ONE MOTHER in your life???? And when she is gone, that's it.......

Trying to decide whether or not to go camping with friends in a bit or forgo it and work on my book business. I can probably do both if I get my butt in gear. I'm not much of a camper but it's a beautiful area and I know I would have fun with my friends.
