What a rollercoaster everything has been. And I’m not talking about the pandemic, though I suppose I should be more focused on that…
….but I had to come crawling back to WordPress for the time being. There were issues with Weebly that weren’t able to be surmounted, not even with the help of the great tech support they have.
I’m still a little spun around by the whole thing, and haven’t processed it.
So, onto you. How are you managing your writing time lately?
As a close, I’ll just leave you with a bit of the post I was putting up onto the other site.
(It’s about animals, of course.)
“During this lockdown, there’s the opportunity to give a shelter animal a foster home. Animal shelters are also most likely feeling the burden caused by these new restrictions. Many of the shelters may not be able to adopt animals out during this time. And, it’s getting into kitten and puppy season—a time when animal shelters are busier than ever, due to people still not getting their pets spayed and neutered. Plus, shelters are probably going to be flooded with more and more animals in the coming months, as people have not only lost their jobs, but may lose their homes as well, due to the financial instability that is facing us all.
So, please, reach out to your shelter and offer to provide a foster home for an animal if you have the space. Or make a donation online to the shelter. Or, even better, offer to adopt a specific animal when the shelters are able to resume their adoption process. It’s a stressful time, but let’s try not to overlook the needs of those who can’t ask us for help; our animal companions.”
Find your local shelter via Petfinder: https://www.Petfinder.org.
Nice to read from you. Stay safe!

I would love to be able to foster some animals to help out. But with 2 scaredy cats, a crazy Shih Tzu and home renovations I can’t. 😔 It’s probably a good thing though because I’m sure I’d become a kitten hoarder.

Good reminder – thank you! I’m happy to have my cat (who really just adopted me rather than the other way around) during this phase of existence 🙂

Nice! Cats rock! (And, for the record, you cannot get coronavirus from your pets!)

A wonderful reminder for us to think about the animals that are also needing care. This pandemic is rippling across all parts of life. And I’m sorry to hear that Weebly was a challenge. I noticed that my comments didn’t seem to be showing up there. I couldn’t tell. For all WP’s faults, it still seems to be the best platform I’ve come across. Welcome back. Stay safe and take care. 🙂

Thanks! I just heard tell that people are getting rid of their pets because they think they can get coronavirus from them. 😦

Oh, so paranoid and sad. There is plenty of room for kindness, even in a pandemic.
