Polly Pocket

She's here.  I made the 4 hour trek roundtrip trek to pick her up.  Traffic from a major construction project, but otherwise, uneventful.

She's mostly blind, mostly deaf, but all sweetness ... so far lol (!!)  Lots of changes in the first few days. And she IS little -- 8 lbs.  So hard to tell in pictures, especially before she was groomed.

We got home and I put her in the bathroom (my boys were making her nervous) while I set up her crate bed and she fell asleep for THREE HOURS (!!)  Poor baby needed to decompress.  She seems to be housebroken and slept through the first night (and is still sleeping).






We leave for Asheville tomorrow and I'm super glad we took the extra day at home.  Tomorrow will be a big "back" day between the ride and cleaning, but I'm happy to have a homebound day to relax today.

Yesterday was a good day.  I managed my thoughts and had a productive, happy day.  Lots of podcast listening for the drive and a phone catch-up with a friend.  I ran at the park in the morning (hello, stiff muscles today) and did my Spanish workbook early to make sure it happened.  Ate well -- fresh veggies from the produce stand (heading back this morning to get more) and slept long too.

Slowly, but surely.  Keeping moving forward and doing the things I know help.  

Time to get the little one up and to potty.  Have a happy Saturday.  Later gators.
