I've spent the last few days working on some stuff for the animal shelter I work with. We recently became our own non-profit (we were a sister group for another animal rescue org) and so there's a ton of work and advocacy and fundraising that needs to be done. I'm very excited about it- I love love love my work at the shelter. It'll be wonderful if we can do more for the animals we rescue, maybe expand to taking in cats that people surrender. Right now we only have resources for abandoned/stray cats and kittens- we currently don't have an open door policy for people to come in and give up their cats. I have MAJOR issues with the idea of people giving up their animals, ESPECIALLY after a child comes into the family, but I'll avoid getting into that for now. I would love to be able to do something for those poor animals, since I believe that they are just as deserving as a good home as the kittens we work with.
IThat's all for now. Today I have OFF so I am very excited to read my email and catch up on stuff around here. I am soooo behind on everything. I am so bad at time management, and I am truly terrified about what I'm going to do when Cupcake arrives. My priority will be her, but I hope when she's asleep or with Tom or my parents, I use that time to do things I love, instead of schlumping on the couch, which seems all I am capable of as of late.
