Busy, busy weekend!

Yesterday I worked at the Humane Society's annual Spay Day, and it was REALLY successful! There were a ton of people who came in to sign up for surgeries, and even more who came in for the low cost vaccinations, nail clipping, and microchipping! Excellent day all around!

Sunday started off by pulling an 8-year-old Cavalier from CMHS for Cavalier Rescue, and transporting him to his new home around Kansas City (well, halfway at least). His new foster parents seemed really great, and the fact that they prefer senior dogs with health issues is about the coolest thing ever.

Then, this afternoon, an older gentleman wanted to meet Colby. Kyle and I met him and his 13-year-old granddaughter at the shelter and chatted for a while. I had a few hesitations about him, and whether or not he met my standards for adopting one of my fosters. But the guy seemed super smitten with Colby, and that, combined with the fact that my opinion doesn't carry much weight with the adoption counselors, made me pleased enough to let him take our foster who has been with us the longest! The guy is a flower delivery driver, and wants a buddy to go on his route with him, and then one to be a lap dog at home - Colby most definitely fits the bill. And of course, we had to send him on with his wubby.

This is my frog, damn it.

And lastly - CMHS has moved up to THIRD in the shelter makeover competition. This is seriously incredible. At this pace, we will likely end the competition in first place, which is an automatic $10,000 to the shelter, regardless of if we were to win the actual makeover. How awesome is that?!

I'm also pretty stoked, because I've been in friendly competition with my friend Amanda for the top point-earner position for the shelter, and I finally beat her out this weekend! Granted, we're within points of each other, so we switch back and forth, but I still take internet-nerd pride in knowing I'm basically tied as the highest point earner. :) Speaking of, here is the newest video I uploaded to the site, which for some reasons cracks my stuff up! It was taken shortly after Emma decided to dig a hole into one of our guest bed mattresses. Fortunately it's a super, super cheap mattress, so I'm not totally heart broken.
