R.I.P. 'Darling'

I woke up to feed my 'Darling' and she was gone (dead).

I say she died as a result of Hurricane Gustav & Ike.

You see, I had to relocate her to the garage after over 30 people showed up at our house due to the mandatory evacuation of Terrebonne & Lafourche Parishes.
There was always entirely too many young ones around the cages and because they're nocturnal, they exercised and made too much noise all night.

We still have 'Jay Jay' & 8 of her offspring left.
Although she was a mean lil thing and I didn't get to hold and play with her much, it was still a sad moment when I found her dead.

My stepdad dug a hole in the back yard and helped me bury her.
I'm making her a tombstone and will post a pic as soon as it's done and in place.

OCD, OCD, OCD, LOL, LOL, LOL

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, for those who don't know what OCD stands for.
Just one of the many gifts I was born and blessed with.

Weird, Crazy, call it what you want, just thought I'd share a lil something something about my unique, off-the-wall collection of wrist bands, in particular the one I received at the start of HPC's VBS program this past July.

While on our way home from my doctors appt at Children's Hospital, I was digging in the console and found a brand new, fresh, and shiny bracelet (YEAH!!) to replace the worn-out, dull one I wore for the past 73 days.

I know, 'I'm Special'
