[via LJ2ME] The Best Thing.
I'm so tired. I should really be sleeping but I don't want to miss a night since I've been so consistent with doing this thus far. Ah, I love the word 'thus'. I like 'verily' too.
So The Best Thing about today was...feeling totally peaceful for the first time in a long time. It only lasted a few minutes but I was truly anxiety-free and very content and it was WONDERFUL. And then I started wondering how snow gets on all the ground under trees.
Nicholas is going to be staying with his "mom" and I think it's the very best thing for both of them. She's gotten really attached to him while nursing him back to health. It sounds like he's gotten attached to her too, so they definitely belong together. :) I hope Jack Travis doesn't miss his little brother too much...actually, he could be his big brother. I don't know who was born first. ANYway. I need to get to sleep - these are not the kind of rabbit trails I need to be going off on. :p
It is official, now that I know Nicholas is staying with his mom - I will be adopting Korbel and Asti from the rat rescue! They were both born on our wedding anniversary and with Jack Travis being born on Thanksgiving, I'd say I have a very special bunch of ratty boys! :-D I asked my husband very sweetly if I could have four rats instead of three and he did not receive it well. In fact, his response was, "Weren't you only getting two?" And of course, I got his point immediately. If he says yes to four, how does he know I won't be coming back asking for five? (Except I really truly wouldn't, but it was not the Time to make That Particular Point.) Now that I'm thinking about all of this though, I would like to know why three (or even four!) is such a big deal. We have a cage that can comfortably house six ratty babies. So what is it he's so worried about? Hm yes. I should really ask.
On THAT note, I am going to sleep. Quite tired am I. Nite!
