11 July 2002
Nancy here again. Once again, it's been awhile since I posted last, and lots has happened! I've downsized the amount of work I do with Greyhound Crossroads from being a Core Group Member and the Internet Coordinator to just being a foster home and maintaining the group's website. It seems that some of the other members of the Core Group were disturbed that I was working at a leadership level with two groups, so I did what I thought was best and stepped down. Now I can enjoy seeing friends I've made with that group, but not have to worry about what I say or do as much. Also, I'm taking on more responsibility with Carolina Greyhound Connection (in addition to being a board member and the Secretary) and taking on a foster beginning next week. Her name is Alex (Lucky Alexandria) and I swear if our pack wasn't full I'd want to keep her. What a silly dog!!!
We celebrated Mills's fourth birthday on May 31st...he's getting to be a big kitty! Also celebrated Profile's SEVENTH birthday on June 1st...I can't believe he's seven...a senior, technically. Scott and I were talking about the dogs the other night, and came to the conclusion that Bo and Jeany are "his" dogs, Liz and Hunk are "my" dogs...and Profile...well, Profile just belongs to "da ladies..." :) Hunk, Jeany, Bo, and Liz are doing fine. I had wanted to have a joint birthday party for Hunk and Marky around the time of their birthday, July 16th, but I don't know how that's going to work. All the weekends in July are full for me...Hunky will be 6!
The most important thing that's happened, though, is that my book is done! As I type, there are 300 copies on my sofa, waiting to be shipped. I can't believe it. I nearly fainted when I opened that first box and saw MY NAME on the book cover. It's a really weird experience. Hunky seems to be handling his fame well...he's going to love all the chances he's going to get to go to schools to talk about his book! :) I've created a website for the book, Proud Racer: One Greyhound's Journey, for anyone interested. Whew! Back to the grind...
