Foster Mommy

I'm pre-approved to become a dog foster mom!  I'm excited, nervous, happy ... all things at once.  I've been drawn to a particular rescue group for awhile now -- it just captured my attention far more than any other group.  They posted last week they are looking for new foster families.

After emails, application and several phone interviews ... it's happening (as soon as the home inspection is done -- which is no big deal).

The biggest concern is the foster dog needs to be quarantined from my pup for 10 days (longer if sick). That will be a challenge, but one we will work with.  I can't wait to love on a pup who has never known love before.  All this will wait until after Italy so I have some time to prepare.

I've wanted to do this, but been caught up in focusing on the hard parts and not wanting to get my life "messy."  The biggest memories, joys, challenges often happen in the mess.  I need a little mess in my life.

I'm so excited!! :)

In other news, today is clean-the-house day.  UGH.  And I think my period today.  Double UGH.  And hubby is stuck in AZ with a cancelled flight and no re-book until late tomorrow night.  Triple UGH.

I planned to preview clean yesterday, but after company, tons of cooking, tons of dishes ... I just couldn't muster it (and I was probably in PMS too).  So lots of cleaning needed today.

Best get at it.  Later gators.
