I felt so stupid

[Guest guest]

Know how to forget about fibro for a while? Either go into a trance of

do what I did, it is guareented to make you forget about

everything........... here is the story.........As for me, you won't

even believe what I did.. listen to this. On Tues. I was sitting on the

couch and thinking I better let the dogs in they were out for about half

an hour. I go to let them in and they aren't out in the fenced in back

yard, the door was not latched......oh my goodness !!!!! Did I forget to

latch it? I ask Butch every time he lets them out if he latched the

gate, did I forget? Did the wind blow the gate open and they both ran

out? I am panicking about this time, I mean really bad. I run into the

back yard of the neighbors calling them, and no answer. Golly what am I

gonna do? I run into the house and put my shoes on, grab 2 leashes and

go out the drive and head to the busy street 6 houses away, hoping not

to see 2 whilte piles of fur along the road.......sweating bullets

here.......I go onto the next street, see 2 ppl in their yards and asked

them if they had seen 2 little white dogs, one a puppy,,,,,,no they

didn't......panic more...........go to house behind my house and cut up

thorough the yard, figuring I am wasting time, I dont know which

direction they are heading, I am thinking get in the car, go up and down

each street and call them.......then I remember Spanky didn't have his

ID on (it causes stains on his chest), how will anyone be able to return

them, and they are so cute someone might want to keep them,,,,,,,crying

here,,,,to lose one is bad but two? Oh God, what am I going to do?....it

is so hot out and my lungs are searing with pain due to the asthma, how

can I go on?....as I came up around the front of my house I look on the

porch and there are two white dogs, wagging their tails, watching mommy

runing all over calling them. Here I had put them out there earlier to

enjoy the shade. They never once barked or made any noise to let me know

they were there. I don't usually put them out there, they like it in the

back or with me....   I guess they were enjoying the

sideshow.........I finally got my breath, went into the house , let them

in and layed on the floor and cried and laughed and got doggie kisses

and praised the Lord.............NOW that is a serious fibro fog

minute..............all is well and I know I love these two guys more

than I can say.....this also taught me a lesson, have them wear their

tags regardless of dirty marks, it's not worth the pain of thinking you

lost one of them. I know this in rerospect is funny but I am seriously

worried about my memory now. A couple of things have been happening,

gosh, I felt good knowing mind was not effected, now I am

wondering.....well let me go so I can cuddle with the little fluffs, and

rejoice in the fact they are ok ( now their mom i have doubts about,

haha) hugs, Jan M
