She's growing up so fast.

Again, I don't remember much of my dream, accept I know there was a celebration going on and I was back stage at Disney's Animal Kingdom. I remember the most scary point of my dream was when a big bull elephant was trying to attack and stomp on a baby elephant who didn't realize it was in danger. The baby was just wanting to be near him, and here he was trying to kill it. I remember a keeper running out to grab the baby and pull it away, putting her own life in danger to save the baby.

I spoke with the owner of the Westie puppy on Friday, we agreed to meet this afternoon, I said around 2 or 3pm because my church was having a picnic.  The owner said that time would be fine because she goes to church too. Well, our church picnic was over at 12:30pm today, so I called the owner then and she told me she had a birthday party for a nephew to go to and that she was expecting me between 3pm and 4pm, but that I could call her when I get in the area and she maybe able to pull herself away. I had asked my friend's aunt to go along with me to get her opinion of the dog, so I thought to give the owner some time, we would go to a mall out in that area. 2:30pm, I called the owner's cell phone (the only number she gave me), no response. I leave a message. We go driving to see if we can find the place, find it at 2:50pm, still no answer on the cell phone. We find another store to hang out at, STILL by 4:30pm, half an hour after this supposed birthday party was to have ended, the owner is not at her house. I can hear the dogs barking inside but no way to even see what they look like. 

I am so mad. I was so heart set on getting the puppy today, a new member of my family.

But on the way home we see a girl on the side of the rode with no gas and we took her to the gas station and then back to her car. She said she had been on the side of the road for an hour, calling people she knew, her work, and no one would come out to help her. Her own mother even hung up on her while we were there helping her. It was like no one but us strangers cared that she was stuck out on a not frequently used street in the hot sun, late for work. 

So for me, I'd like to think God's hand was in all of this. Maybe we were sent all the way out to where the dog lived so that we would be on the right path to help that girl. I hope.

But now I have to find a new avenue to locate a puppy.

With a vote of 12 to 2 (I texted friends and family as well), the winner is: Westie!

And I found a lady with a 9 week old litter just 30 minutes from me who has a girl in the bunch. I'm going to meet them on Sunday afternoon to see if we are a match. 

Uncertaintees: 
1. Owner says they haven't had shots yet
2. Owner doesn't know how to get papers to prove it's pure breed (as this is her first litter).

BUT:
1. It is a girl; only boys are available everywhere else
2. She is asking for $300, which isn't bad.
3. I don't have to buy a plane ticket or spend gobs of gas to go get her!

So, please be praying for me in this endevour.

I have a roommate! I haven't had a roommate since the first week in February, but a girl named Heidi who works at Animal Kingdom with the primates just confirmed that she will move in with me on Monday. Defiantely an answer to prayer.

And from the Original Fans...I would love to know WHY they were doing this, especially since they had an audience.

This time last year I was signing papers and moving into my condo. I can't believe I have survived a whole year, and am debt free! Praise God. 

But now that I don't have a roommate, I have to be mindful of what I spend until I get someone new.

So, have at it, and good luck my friends.
