I’ve just come off the phone from speaking with Moonyean, The Girls’ new sister. The news is they’ve fallen in love with her father; happily conceded top dog position to Darkie, the original dog; are totally infatuated with Nanda, who comes to give them a walk; they’re behaving themselves (or misbehaving in a mischievous way!) – happy dogs with tails in the air! Best news: Little Miss Mischief is laughing again 🙂
I’m a bit like the White Rabbit these days – late late, important dates, I can’t seem to make up my mind. I’m sorry I’m not keeping up to date with everyone’s posts and wonderful comments. At some stage the bell will ring, the show’ll be over and I’ll tumble into the nearest chair.
This is wonderful news Meredith! So happy for the Misses, and you 🙂
Isn’t it? I had a bit of a cry, of course, and wanted so much to fling my arms around them and … but that wouldn’t be good for them, so all I can do is rejoice and be unspeakably grateful to Moonyean and her family for their loving care. Really, I would never be able to go if they weren’t settled.
Glad the dogs are happy. Good luck and bon courage for everything else.
Thank you Viv dear – i do seem to be taking my time, don’t I? 🙂
Awwww, sweet pictures! Love those dogs and their smiles! 🙂 I pray blessings upon your new adventure in a new place.
I appreciate your wishes, Deb. 🙂
Meredith, please dont be sad – be happy that they found such a good loving home – look at their smiles! They will never forget you. Bon Courage e bon voyage soon – dont leave us alone here for too long – many of us will be waiting for you. Hugs – Carina
Carina, thank you dear – you’re right, it’s only selfish ego being sad, and of thinking they’ll remember me – for them it would be best if they forgot. I’m absolutely overjoyed they’re happy and are giving Moonyean and her father, particularly, such great company. 🙂
Meredith, get everything you can out of your beloved Sri Lanka before you leave. You can catch up later on the other stuff. It’s lovely to see the smiles. This must be such a weight off your shoulders to know they are happy and loved.
I’m drunk with imbibing, Michelle, especially at the moment because it’s Wesak and I’ve been out every night shooting the lights and crowds.
I know how silly it is to give in to the impulse to be sentimental, especially when I think of them wagging their tails again. I’m eternally grateful to Moonyean and her father and overjoyed to know The Girls are safe and happy. 🙂
These photos make me smile too. They indeed look happy and lively! Such a wonderful thing for them. Take a rest, and smile and laugh too.
I am really (smiling and laughing!) – though the sadness wells up at times, and I just have to accept that of course. 🙂
Very cute fur babies!
I’m so proud of them 🙂
Dear M!!! Smile with them and do not look back….Your heart will be full with happiness and joy for each new day…We will be here…:)
The not looking back is difficult still, but of course, you’re right and I’ve all those treasured memories of them and the times we shared. 🙂
Great photos – the Misses look so happy, and thanks to your careful arrangements. As for the rest, as they say… all in good time 🙂
Y e s – silly to be so impatient for love to subside! 🙂
I doubt the love will subside much… but your exit from Sri Lanka and landing in Sydney… all in good time… you should never hurry goodbyes 🙂
Subside was the wrong word – I’m looking forward to the time love’s intensity changes into less longing.
You should never hurry good byes? I always used to, so anxious to be off, but you can see, I tarry on, and on, just one more story, one more glass of thambilly … 🙂
Dear Meredith,
The photos in this post made me laugh along with Little Miss Mischief. I’m glad everyone is doing so well.
Thank you Naomi dear 🙂
Thank you for the update — so happy to hear all has worked out. I am sure it puts your mind and heart at ease.
It sure does! We had a bit of a false start to begin with but these people are just perfect and Moonyean’s phone updates and occasional pictures are the icing on the cake.
Now this is really good news! Yay!
Love their smiles, made me smile! Thank you for sharing the great news!
So pleased to hear your girls (and you, kind of) are happy. It must be a relief for you to know you are leaving them in such good and loving hands.
They’re so cute, I’m glad they’re happy 🙂
