Well it's done and over with ! And when they say the day before preparation is the worst of the whole colonoscopy they are RIGHT!!! The procedure was a cinch except for the long time waiting to 'get er done'. I did almost passed out after getting the IV put in but with a cold facecloth and the head of the bed put down I managed to rally. Don't I just hate that fuzzy feeling that comes when you're heading to Pass Out Land. And bless Valerie;s heart for waiting so long to bring me home. I felt like a million dollars upon arriving home .Went on a long stroll down to lower end beach with Oreo and Rinny and after Eleanor came along and walked the beach with us ,she and I jumped in the water in our skivies and had a victory colonoscopy swim! It was so invigorating and empowering. Those who might have had a view of this might not have had the same opinion but what did we care. It was a gorgeous day for the end of September .the sea was inviting and we had just both done something not all that looked forward to by many and had taken control of our own health. That is cause for celebration and Eleanor and I will always have that wonderful and fun memory no matter where life takes us.
Well my prayers have been answered for Rinny .As sad as it will be to hand him over to a new family I am so happy for this precious little dog. He deserves every ounce of love his new family will shower him with. There was not one thing I could have negatively said about his behavior. Perfect is the best word that comes to mind. I will miss him like crazy. Fostering these wonderful dogs are teaching me alot about attachments and how we have the tendency to expect everything we are given to be always ours and when we attach in that way we contribute to the possibility of more pain ,blaming others ,not being able to move ahead and being bitter .angry or a whole other myriad of emotions because we don't believe we should have had to give someone or something up or had it taken away. Everything we are given is a gift no matter the wrappings but it is not necessarily ours to keep forever. And if we can accept that first on we just might not have to lose the value or worth of life when sad,and bad moments in life happen. Does this make sense?
Today is a just do what I feel like day .Feel like laying down? Do it. Feel like just looking out the window ? Do it. Guess my energy from yesterday had done gone and went. So I will just flow with whatever.
So cheers for today .Be happy for Rinny.Another happily after dog shelter TAIL. The Muse
