Care

a much better day is happening today. already. it's only 9:30. which i guess is late to some ppl. But I feel like it's early today.
It's friday. I have only ONE CLASS today. which means I need to get caught up in all my other classes I've been somewhat neglecting.

Greg and I are going to Plano (again) tonight. I need to pick up my car. It's all fixed now. I'm going to miss having the rental car.

So I had this scary thought the other day.

I was thinking about nice it would be if Olive could go visit my parents. she used to do that alot when she was 2-3 mos old. Then she got bigger and hyper-er and my parent's dog, Mia is older and doesn't always want to play like Olive does. So bringing Olive to my parents is kind of like one big trip to Chuck-E-Cheese but with one kid who wants to constantly play and another who wants to go to the mall (Mia). Bad analogy- I know.

But I was thinking oh, we could bathe Olive and put her TCU bandanna on her and my parents could see how much she has grown and she could stay out in the backyard when she gets too much for Mia.

here comes the scary part.

My parents have a pool. But what if Olive had a seizure and then there's the pool...and...well...

I hate even thinking that!! Poor Olive. It's weird, caring so much about something. Like I care about my parents and Greg immensely. These are thoughts I would have for them- but for my dog? I never thought that I would care so much about someoneanimal who wasn't my mom, step-dad, or future husband. Like since Olive's seizure, I watch her every move. Each little noise frightens me. And maybe that will pass. I am sure it will.
It's just scary. The seizure and the caring and everything else.

I really pray that my kids are healthy.

But Olive's been fine since Monday. She has a lot of energy. We really want to take her to the dog park but it's been rainy which means the park is muddy. So maybe today. No rain= non-muddy ground.
