Ack!! Where have I been??

I know it's been AGES since I last posted here.. can't say as to why. I have posted on my other blog "Rescues". ... but this one kinda got left behind =(

So what's new??
I started a new job August 1st which I hate..
Still living the good life which I love..
Christmas is in 4 days. I'm done with shopping (except for my 'honey-dude").
It will be a simple morning at home.. then off to the "in-laws"..
Then a relaxing weekend at home.

Then back to work Monday morning for another 4 days of work before having another 3 day weekend of peace and relaxation.

So yeah... that's my update from the last time I was here... shocking! isn't it?!? =)

Life Could Be a Dream

I have a dream...
And I so wish I was independently wealthy to follow thru with that dream..

I worked at a dog kennel... funnest job I've had yet... but also very stressful. There's lots of work to be done in dog-care. When I moved back to Simi, I had seriously considered opening a rescue kennel... as an alternative to my 'dog-job'. I would take in strays and fosters... acclimate them to domestic living.. and find them new happy homes... a little at a time for lotsa love. The timing wasn't right I suppose and plans just fell thru.

Then last year and the year before, I fostered cats.. First 2 were failures but last 2 were succesful. I got 2 little tuxedo-babies... 1 boy 1 girl... looked like they could have been my Jessie-cat's babies. I found them happy homes with loving, doting parents. Aside from our own farm of house-pets... the nest is empty again.

Helping a friend find an English-Bull puppy, I've come across so many ads... cats/kittens/dogs/puppies/ducks/chickens looking for homes... I so wish I could take them all in... give them a 2nd chance at life... give them that extra time to find a new home, time they wouldn't find in a shelter. rescues are overcrowded and some can't take in anymore babies til they find homes for the ones they've got.

The way the economy is these days, so many people are faced with giving up their pets to move back in with relatives, or have to move to NON-pet-friendly places to live. I don't want to face that same fate of giving up my Whinona-hound... or Jessie-cat... or Lillie-chicken. I want to have a house with a yard! ...where they can be free to run, have friends, and just enjoy life!

I want to help the helpless of this world!!
Tell me how I can fulfill this dream!!
