it would take me a long time to recount all the perfection in the previous days, with timing, and moving things...so im not going to do it.
God is sufficient in taking care of our lives and the things that concern us.
i have wayyyyy too much stuff.
after my bed left, i slept on a beach/ lawn chair - it was actually quite comfortable. i slept soundly. my cats laid on my legs. that was a bit rough. they were really calm about me moving around and kicking them off. i think they knew something was up.
saturday was a memorial service for a co-workers' mom. i couldnt find it and there was traffic, and rain. i cried. crying also happened as i thought of my cats during church sunday. kara and jacqueline listened as i roundly condemned my crying as ridiculous. and then they reminded me it wasnt.
i dropped them off sunday early evening, and they were panting in stress...the lady that graciously offered to put them in her backyard is a bit more of a cat person than i, so i rested in the fact that she wont forget them. her daughter was excited about more animals. although we had to distinctly tell her that tiger- her own indoor, declawed cat- could in NO WAY go outside, no could mine go inside under any circumstances. my cats would beat her poor cat up.
::maybe they could be friends, if introductions were done right. but who's to know what kind of introduction that would be?::
samantha went with me. spiffy sharted on her shirt a bit. the mark of a true friend. i wouldve definitely flipped out a bit more.
i didnt cry. as i put the key in the lock for the last time at the apt, i had a twinge of weirdness. there would be no cats to greet me and be all annoyingly up in my business.
there will be no cat hair in my - well, everything.
i can vacuum my car, and no cat hair will be added.
maybe, in the future house, they could come back and stay in my back yard. but i am still praying for someone to love them fully and long- term.
im sitting on the couch that is also my bed for 3 nights. rearranged my stuff in the girls' apt so it would be less visually daunting. didnt really work.
i pray i can be a blessing and not just an added hindrance or someone else they have to take care of.
