A Dog in My Future....

I had long "ignored" Facebook, thinking it was a frivilous waste of time, and I'm already good at wasting time without any help online.  I don't remember when, but I finally relented, created an account, and started friending people.

I'm glad I did.  One of the people I friended is Mabel, one of the girls I grew up with in Marrero.  As most people do, we lost touch over the years, but have renewed our friendship through Facebook (as I have with many of my childhood friends).

This week, Mabel and I have been talking about me adopting Max the Dachshund, a cute little guy that belongs to one of her friends' Aunt.  Sad to say that the nice lady (I spoke with her on Friday morning) who's Max's Mom has to give him up because of illness and a move from New Orleans to Texas.  Mabel has kept up with my perils of trying to rescue a dog and was kind enough to reach out to me when her friend told her of Max's fate.

So now, I'm researching getting Max from Louisiana to California some time in the next couple of weeks and getting my house prepared for a new four-legged roommate.

I'll keep you all posted on it.  And a big thanks to Mabel!!!

Until Next Time,

Kel
