A Wonderful Wait

Foggy Whitesox has not returned since we sent her away yesterday morning, with her collar and little note. We keep checking at the door, but no kitty.

I think that she got grounded. I think that she showed up at her real home with her cute little purple collar and note and her parents freaked out. I think that they grounded her for being so promiscuous.

It is okay. She might still come back to visit us. We'll just have to wait and see.

I was thinking yesterday that waiting is not necessarily a bad thing. This two week wait has been awesome. Really, I really mean that! I am happier than I've been in ages. I love thinking that my someday family might be turning into a reality.

This is seriously the best kind of wait. There is a decent chance that this is it. That this wait is not a wait at all, but the reality that I've been dreaming of for so long.

At your wedding, were you 'waiting' for the ceremony to end so that the reception could start? You might look forward to the reception, but you love every second that you stand before your friends and family exchanging vows with the person you love.

Do you go to a movie and 'wait' for it to end? You might look forward to dinner after the movie, but you still enjoy the time that you spend at the theatre.

I feel like this two week wait is actually a precious time during which magic could be happening. I am not waiting for it to end, I want it to go on forever.

Awesome perspective...really profound!

Sorry that foggy whitesox hasn't returned! That's totally what I'd do if I was her owner, though..."no more running around the neighborhood without a collar for you, little one!" LOL! I hope she comes back soon!

That's a great outlook! It gives me hope that I can do the same in my hopeful two week wait in december.

I love how you savour life, Foxy. This quote by Diane Ackerman makes me think of your state of mind right now:

“I don’t want to get to the end of my life and find that I lived just the length of it. I want to have lived the width of it as well.”

Here's hoping your wishes come true!
