first spca day

i was there for about 2.5 hours. and it was EXHAUSTING!

i'm such a wimp.

i walked 3 dogs. and this was AFTER i worked out this morning...two of the dogs were pits and the 2nd dog was very sweet, very thin with big nips meaning she had puppies at one time. probably was bred for them. fuckers. the last dog and the 2nd pit was an 8 month old puppy. although i was laughing at her i was very frustrated becuase she was SUCH a puppy. she jumped on me, nipped my jacket sleeves, bit at my feet, tried to trip me (she did try) and pulled like a mack truck. 3 times she pulled my arm out of my socket and i think she fractured my thumb. i'm not a good animal rescuer becuase i wanted to beat her silly. but she got out, she ran in the frisbee yard and she seemed happy to come back to her kennel where her breaksfast awaited her.

i took out 2 dachsund/terrier mixes and they were just darling. and a welcomed breather since i only had to hold both leashes with one finger.

after a few hours i was worn out but on my WAY out i saw a room full of clean, unfolded blankets & towels so i spent 30 minutes folding evreything.

it felt really good today doing somethign outside myself. i probably won't make a habit of it since i'm only used to myself but i hope i do.

i'm making roasted tomatoes and broccoli rabe for lunch. that's my reward. : )
