Hi Katia,
What is Cathy's info again? I could look in old posts but if you have it handy... I want to let you know that you and Rock are now on a 24-hour 30 day prayer circle. Never hurts to have good words and intentions from others.

I slept all day yesterday and feel like a new person. Very rested, after all the trauma of the past few weeks. Thank the good spirits for benzos. I wouldn't have been able to just let down and sleep without them. It takes alot to knock me out, even when I'm exhausted.

We're thinking moving to the Ashland, OR area. Are you familiar with Ashland? Alot of cultural events, spiritual communities, good eatin' joints, gorgeous scenery, jobs, and not crowded at all. The Shakespeare Festival is a big Summer event. It's getting fairly expensive so we can't drag our heels too long.

In the past, any major move was prompted by some sort of catastrophe, some major reason or other. Moving is such a royal pain. It's easy to put up with situations not in one's best interest, so as not to go through the hassle. We'd probably still be in Marin if our landlord's daughter didn't need a place to live in a big hurry and we had to move out in a big hurry. The economy and housing prices were so high in the Bay Area that we just upped and moved to Oregon on blind faith and never looked back. Portland started getting crowded and expensive - the reason we wanted to leave the Bay Area. We moved to this little redneck community, with some idyllic notions of quilting bees and country dances. More like country flailing and country puking at the local bars, the only community venues in town (besides the very conservative churches). Been a good cave experience, but it's time to move out of the cave. Especially since this cave breeds asthma.

Thanks for your sweet words on Shashee. She's been sticking close by but she has a big bite mark on her head, like some animal chomped on her. I hate this worrying about them. I'd love to have a huge fenced in compound. I don't know how people with kids do it. I would be a total wreck every time they were out of my site. But sometimes I wonder if I'd have the same total love for human kids than for my furry ones.

Hope you're healing a little better each day. You and Rock are in my thoughts and prayers. If you get those puppy pictures, please post them. - Barbara
