Sleeping the day away

I've slept a lot today because I can't face the sadness of a rainy day without Skooter and Moped. I usually love rainy days. They make me happy. But today that isn't the case. I could have been taking a nap on the couch with Skooter. Well, no, Moped wouldn't let me get away with that if he had to stay in his kennel. But I would nap with Skooter if I could.

When I have been awake today, I've been spending time researching GSP breeders here and in Kansas. There are quite a few of them. I'm not planning on getting another dog, I'm just window shopping. It makes me feel good to see GSP's. And there are some great ones out there. Some real cute puppies too. I think when I eventually get another GSP it will look different than Skooter and Moped. I like the look of a patched tan and white GSP and a dark, ticked GSP. I wouldn't want it to seem like I was replacing Skooter or Moped with a substitue dog. They can never be replaced. I can fall in love with another dog, but not right now. Somewhere way down the road.

The pet food supplier mistakenly delivered 25 pounds of dog food the week after the dogs left. I called and told them about the error. I said I would keep the food and donate it to the Rescue here in town. It still sits in the living room. I can't seem to get rid of it. I also have the last bowl of dog food still sitting out in the kitchen. I just don't want to throw it away. It's too symbolic of 'getting rid of them'. Just can't do it.
