Thanking you helping Audrey. God knew to get her to you! I am taking an internet break again so I won't be posting for awhile. :)

Audrey looks like such a little sweetie.  Bless you and Charles for saving her and giving her a second chance at life.  I hope she finds a wonderful home!

Audrey is so very cute. It was truly a blessing that you found her.

It is so sad as the number of dumped dogs and cats is growing rapidly. Fosters and shelters struggle. I won't say more as I have a very strong opinion about people that abandon or abuse animals.

Something that my paternal grandmother said to me one day as I was leaving her house was, "Always forgive, but never forget". It took me years to figure out her meaning. Forgive those who hurt you, but never forget their actions, so be careful. It is not necessary to be around hurtful or toxic people, just because we have forgiven them. That comment has stuck with me throughout my life.

Your pictures are so calming and heartwarming. I love when I see someone has made a comment or there is a new post.

Such a sad story but with a happy ending.  I am more in tune with animals than people these days, I'm afraid.  I had such a caring loving upbringing and now find we're more or less by ourselves - we do have two daughters - one a caring loving girl with husband and adult daughter, the other who has forsaken us for some unknow reason.  We're old - let's face it, we're old - and old people don't matter much these days.  That saying of 'always forgive but never forget' is true of our estranged daughter.  I don't need toxic relationships in my life.

Awe what a sweet looking puppy. We got our “trusty k9 companion” from the HS. He’s not very smart but he’s sweet.  
Growing up, we would stop by to see people (or vice versa) and would end up helping feed cattle or ride along on a tractor for a few passes or help snap peas or whatever.  I have mentioned it to hubby more than once how it’s too bad folks don’t do that anymore.  
One of my favorite memories is a time my aunt and grandmother and I were snapping bean and joking about one in the mouth and one in the bowl. 

Thank you for helping Audrey even though it broke your hearts. Because of y’all she will have a great life instead of slowly dying alone. I love her name! We got a puppy about a year and a half ago and his name is Tristan Farnon. I completely understand fearing that your pets will outlive you—we struggle with that too. 

My maternal grandmother is the one who taught me the most and made me feel important. I lived in a different state from her but would fly out every summer to spend it with her. She didn’t spoil me or buy me things, but she included me in whatever she was doing. As a child she made me feel heard and that I mattered. She also taught me that people matter more than things. Boy do I miss her.

My grandmother kept a pot of beans & rice warm on the stove all day in case someone dropped by. Down south if someone came by you fed them- didn't matter what time. 

I long for a dog. Until the temperatures drop to 20 degrees or less. Lol
