You have given enough

 Every now and then I run across a quote that captures my attention.That happened today. The quote was, "You have given enough, it's time for you to start receiving now." Thinking back over my life that is no doubt true. Sometimes I wonder if I was born not expecting anything in return for the things I have done for others, especially family. The payment I have always received is, "Let's not talk to her". I often wonder what the Creator thinks of that choice.

A bed of her own

I have had a pet bed for many years. My female cat, Ebony used it to give birth to her four kittens, then my dog, Ejay used it for about ten years. When I got my dog ,Lilly I gave it to her. She decided to chew the front part of the basket until I finally put it away and just used an old pillow for her to sleep on. Eventually I felt sorry for her and decided it was time to get her a new bed all her own.

Last night was her first experience with it. As I shut the door to the room she sleeps in I had my doubts if she was going to use it. When I opened the door this morning she was laying on it. Success!
