Greta's Haven Pet Rescue

Mom is a little stressed out today. Her car, which is practically new, died at an intersection when she was driving to work! When she finally made it home she told me about how she waited over an hour for a tow truck, all the while watching her disabled car be nearly hit by drivers who, for whatever reason, didn't notice the hazard lights. She says her favourite guy was the fellow in the big Ford pick-up truck who was texting. That was a close one! Then, she says, by the time a large gravel-hauler almost plowed into the car she was ready to just let it get totaled.

Here's the thing - why is she stressed now?!?! I don't think she has grasped the concept that we now have an ENTIRE DAY to snuggle. I mean, really, what could be better than that? Eva, Adina and I stand at the ready to help all that stress melt away by showering Mom with love. And dog drool. It has healing properties, you know.

So, as Mom putters around the house, I place myself strategically in her path. She pats me absently for now but, before long, she'll realize this is a pretty good day after all.
