New York state of mind

I am so ready to go to NYC for the weekend. SO ready.  

Unfortunately, I have about forty bazillion things to do before we leave.  As Matt just said, “Mom, today is a big day. A gigudulous day!”  

I meet the breeder (V) last night to hand over Maggie.  The night before we spent about 40 minutes on the phone discussing various things.  Last night we talked for probably another hour with Maggie with us.  Maggie?  She was really good, actually.  There are a number of things that concern V. about Mags, but in general, she did say that at this point she didn’t see any reason why Maggie couldn’t be ‘rehabilitated’ and come home to us in a few weeks.  She’s going to keep us posted.  But get this…my dog who barks at the wind? Stood in the parking lot with us while strangers walked by and didn’t make a sound.  No growling, no whining, no barking.  I was flabbergasted.  So we’ll just have to wait and see how it goes.

Oh, and I finally saw the bite marks on the little girl.  I thought they were on the top of her arm, but they are actually on the bottom of her arm, as if she actually could have smacked her arm down on Maggie’s mouth/teeth.  I so wish someone had seen something!!!!!  

I better get moving.  My clothes aren’t going to pack themselves and my toiletries aren’t going to stuff themselves into 3 oz. bottles and jump into a ziploc bag.  Not to mention I have laundry to finish, sheets to change, a lawn to mow, and the house to clean before the first round of babysitters show up.  

Have a great weekend, ya’ll!  I’m OUT OF HERE!!!!!!!!!
