Pupper InterloperTell me about your dog.
I love my baby so much. She follows me around all day long. She loves her toys and I love watching her play with them. She greets me like she hasn't seen in me in six months... every time. She is very spoiled because she is used to people instantly loving her but she understands the rules of the house so she is a very good girl.
She protected me from a creepy man at the park where I walk her. He got way too close and tried to be aggressive with me because I didn't accept his advances. She sensed my discomfort and barked at him and he left me alone almost instantly. She has a scary bark. She knows when I'm sick or sad. If I'm sick, she's extra good. If I'm sad, she sniffs my face, gives me a couple of small licks, and lays down next to me in what I interpret as a loving and gently protective manner. She's my first dog and I am learning a lot.
I have been in a funk since yesterday, after witnessing the sickening spectacle of the bodies of the Bibas family being paraded about and celebrated in Gaza. Sick to my stomach about poor Shiri and her babies.
Oh my god, and then I just read the article that said it's not even Shiri's body they released. I didn't know how it could possibly get worse, but there it is.
Me too. My blood is just boiling.
I hate to ask for a link, if it is too traumatising to look it up don't worry about...
You've probably seen the thread by now, but here you go... https://ovarit.com/o/WomensLiberation/662746/hamas-still-has-shiri-bibas-where-is-the-outcry
It's Saturday in New Zealand....anyway I'm moving house today. From the city, which I love love love but is way too expensive...to live with my 2 sons across the road from the ocean.
My mental health hasn't been great, I need family around me and my boys have welcomed me. I am so lucky.
I wish you all the best in your new location with your boys. May you all be helpful to one another and give one another grace and space in your new living arrangements!
Thanks so much HH-woman
