Buddy, The Mighty Lizard Hunter - Suspected Pituitary Macro Tumor

Good morning Kathy, hope you got some sleep.

Oh no, I have those senior moments all the time, lose my keys, glasses, phone and yes purse regularly :D:D:D Has it turned up??

Gawd Addy, nothing like a bit of pressure, you will have me hunting out penguins haha.... I have only EVER seen one on our beach and it was dead!! I do know there are rescue penguins at our aquarium just up the road... so we could visit them :D:D

Hi Trish,
I was leaving a message on your thread while you were leaving a message on mine.:D I'll let you refer to that when you get a chance. Sounds like you're having a spectacular Saturday already! You may need to get out sleeping bags because there are other angels that want to come too!LOL:D That would sure be a hoot!:D XXXXXX

By the way Trish, you will not have to hunt out penguins to entertain me, although that might be fun! LOL We have plenty of penguins here in San Diego in the penguin encounter at sea world. I've seen many penguins of all breeds, shapes and sizes.

Excellent, I will worry about the penguins when Addy comes then :D:D I will have to find you a Kiwi though, our national bird and I bet they aren't in San Diego Zoo!

Kathy, I just read about Buddy. I am so heartbroken for you. :(

Kathy
Just checking in to say hello and let you know you're in my thoughts.About a week after I lost Fella,I couldn't stand to be in this house a minute longer-it was just too painful.I packed up and went to an inn in the mountains for the weekend.I was heartbroken but a chance of scenery was just what I needed.Of course,the white van was waiting patiently for my return but that's another story!:D:D.If you can't make it to NZ,perhaps a few days away somewhere to just relax,take deep breaths and begin to heal would do you good.

Looking at pups online gets you everytime!I find after a loss, its a comfort to look at all the babies that need to be rescued.I realized a part of me was looking for my little Fella but it gave me hope that there was a little baby out there that I could pour all the love I had in my heart to another and make me happy again.I adopted Romeo only 6 wks after losing Fella but I fell in love with him immediately.Although he never can replace my love for Fella,I needed to breathe life in my house once again and I do feel that I am honoring Fella by loving another little boy.That being said,go for it if you truly think it will make you happy!!Sometimes you need to stop being the peacemaker as you said and do something that makes you happy!I'm with Trish,sneak her in/lie about "finding" her,whatever-get your girl if that's what you really want!She will be one lucky pup having you as her mom.
Love,
Patty

Hey Kathy

Just wanted to send you a big big hug before I go away, given how much is left to do I may not get on here in the morning

I will be thinking of you and if I can get on I will at least once

Love
Mel

Mel,
I am so sorry I missed you before you signed off for your trip. I really would've liked to have sent you off in a blaze of glory, fitting such a worthy angel.:) I hope your holiday is everything you would love it to be. Rest up, recharge your batteries and spoil Boyce to death. I will miss you babe. Big hugs and kisses.

Trish,
The San Diego zoo is the world's largest zoo! Yes they have kiwi birds, but I have never seen one in the wild. LOL :D:D I think if the animal exist somewhere in the world, our zoo has them. They might even have some kind of mutant never been seen new hybrid beast. ROFL. We also have the San Diego wild animal Park here. It is a huge park where there's free Range animals in environments as you would see them in nature. I have to say it is very cool!;)

Would I need to book a separate flight from Auckland to Napier? :confused: xxxxxxx

Well I have never seen a Kiwi in the wild either so that makes two of us!! :D:D They are nocturnal birds and only in the native bush! I have been to San Diego Zoo and Sea World too, but not the wildlife park!! Maybe if I visit there again you can take me :)

Yes you would have to take a separate flight Auckland to Napier, the only airline is airnz.co.nz Otherwise it would be a 5 hr drive for me to come pick you up in Auckland!
