Is anyone still out there? I have a lot to tell. First of all, Lena has a forever home! (more of that in a moment)
Aaand, we spent a week dawdling around the British Virgin Islands on this magnificent vessel.
And then...I found a new job, which starts on Tuesday. (That was the unbloggable.)
And last week...we had a great meetup with RevDrKate and her new husband (don't you love the sound of that, Kate?) R at one of our favorite restaurants.
And on top of all of that, we are in the throes of completely remodeling the master bathroom.
But first things first. Lena was adopted by a very nice couple with two young children, who fell in love with her at an adoption fair. All was going well until they observed that their daughter was breaking out in welts whenever Lena licked her! The rescue coordinator and I were so discouraged...then the family reported that they were going to make this work, and would try to teach Lena not to lick the child. Lena is quite a licker, so please pray that somehow this will work for sweet Lena and her new family.
Riley doesn't miss her at all. :)
(Edited to add:) Well, I just found out that Lena is back on Petfinder. Apparently she couldn't stop licking (no surprise there). I am thankful they loved her enough to bring her back to the rescue coordinator, who loves her too and will keep her safe until she's adopted again. So if you are praying for sweet Crystal girl to find her forever home, please add a prayer for sweet Lena girl too.
