Dooks to All !! Okay, what d'ya get when you take a group of 6yr old fosters (1 boy, 3 girls), 3- 3 year old newbies (2 boys, 1 girl) and put them in the same playroom with a 4 month old "biter" that was surrendered by a pet store ????? Oh, yeah - add one fer-kat for measure Some people would say that I was only asking for trouble to try and integrate the groups like that. But y'know what? It worked out pretty dang good. It was a flurry of excitement right here in the living room. Picture a conga line of 6 butt-sniffing ferts walking across the room. I fell on the floor laughing !!!!! Yogi, Skooter, and Tootsie still are afraid of the normal group, but they fit in pretty well with the oldsters. Tootsie and the foster girls had a blast chasing Sasquatch around and around. S'quatch seemed extremely happy to have some playmates. Only one thing brought it to a halt. I made the mistake of walking in with a bowl of Chocolate Truffle Chunk Ice Cream. Once the aroma hit the room all ferts were around me. No, I didn't share. Among other news. After 23 years of a 2pack a day slavery, and after countless attempts to stop, I have finally quit smoking. Let me say that again. I have finally quit smoking <Damn it feels good to say that!>. I went to a session which combines hypno-therapy, diet, supplements, and stress and health related issues. Now, I won't say I don't have the cravings - I still do in a way. Habits and triggers can be a hard cycle to break. This afternoon I even lit up half a cigarette I found laying around. The way my body reacted to it was something I NEVER want to go through again !!! I' m just afraid that I'll take up another bad habit instead. Actually, I have been hitting the ferretone bottle pretty bad . . . . . Warm Fuzzies ~~ !!
