Twenty Four Slash Seven

Last Saturday we send Whinie and blacky back home to where they belong. They look fit enough to be independence I guess. They were in our monitoring for the last 2 weeks. Not knowing the pros and cons, we took the responsible and every detail needed exclude the dogs’! I really pity them because the mother would not want to breast feed them anymore and they both always look weak and hungry. So I think there were more pros than cons which finally got me the courage to brought them into the car and drive them both to our home at Riveria.
It was around evening time when we arrived home. Thank God that we managed to get a small cage from my brother’s clinic. The dogs were overexcited and happy for they get new friends while the kids got some mix feelings the moment they see some big dogs, trying to byte them. But things seem to be fine after 2 hours. The 8 weeks kids need to have enough food for their diet. My wife always prepares the milks in 3 x 600ml bottles and each bottle is enough for a kid. We also started to train them to eat fresh grass which they did and clean water everyday is a must. Believe it or not, Dresden my friendly dog observes too much until one day I caught him eating grass with the kids…. Oh no….Bruxels like wise always lick the kids butt and fur as if they were hers’. Too bad doggies, they don’t bark like you two. The kids like wise often jump like the doggies longing to be hugs and pats as if they are little puppies. So surprisingly that one day, they jump towards me and rest on my stomach!! Adoi.. what happen here I ask myself.. Since the bond was getting stronger, the moment wanting to say good bye was so hard. I can feel what Dresden and Bruxles felt. The moment we put the kids in the car, Dresden and Bruxels barked non stop and once I saw Bruxels putting his head on the walls like she wanted to cry. Well my wife and I got to be strong on this. It is for everyone benefits especially the kids.

By having more living creatures at home means more works and things to do and this really testing our relationship, patience and endurance. My wife is a strong person. Even how sick she is, those animals will get the 1st class care by her. So after coming back from the farm that Saturday afternoon, we treat ourselves with good food at The Spring and yes, we watched 8.40pm, the 2 hours movie entitled the twilight saga, the eclipse which I think I need to buy the DVD because few minutes after the movie was playing, I slept and snored like a baby pig not knowing that Bella was trying hard to seduce me… Ahacksssss! Hahhaahha! I wonderhow was the people surrounds me reacted??? Thank God there was also dark besides light! After the movie end, we quickly ran out of the cinema… Don’t want them to recognize my famous face….

Yesterday I attended church while my fatigue wife was at home resting. I know she needs more rest than me after her work load at the barn and also at home. In the afternoon, we decided to bring Dresden and Bruxels to the barn to visit the kids and yes we did. They were quite restless in the car, jumping ups and downs the seat and after they got tired only then they went off to sleep. Mom, Ezra and Megan also followed us and everybody was so excited including me. We were at the barn from 3 to 6PM. That night, we had dinner at Sri Ijah’s. Dad promised a weak earlier that he’s going to cooked Bah Ku and he did it that Sunday evening. The soup was great and the pork was so tenderly done. I think that was the 1st time we brought the dogs over and they were so happy due to the big compound, they were able to run here and there.. Besides us, my aunt and uncle from Batu Kawah joint us. Oh yeah, my wife mak ulam also. Thanks honey!
It was a great way to spend the weekends what else if it is with your family members. Last time my Saturdays and Sundays are my resting days, but know it has change, temporarily due to the project that I have and thank to mom, dad, wife, Jaja and Andy who always physically help me at the barn. I will not make it if it’s not because of you all!

Welcome Summer!

I went back home today to milk the kids and to feed Bruxels and Dresden. Having kids at the backside of our home I think made them both happy and excited all the times. At least they see something new and can be their toys. Bruxels, a female border collie didn’t managed to get herself from being spayed due to her weak condition. So when she saw those kids, her mother instinct showed up automatically and became protective over the kids. She will carry the kids in his mouth and bring them to a safer area. Though they don’t speak the same language where Bruxels and Dresden bark while Billy and Winnie Mbekkkk, the bond of love is felt among them. Gosh, I was so surprised that last night, I saw Dresden eating grass together with the kids. I hope this is a temporary scenario and it would change by next week when we send those kids back to Toda’s farm. Else I need to send him to rumah ukoi gila.. ada ke?.
When I was about to leave home, I looked at my cell phone, I saw 3 miscalls from my friend Simon and another sms from him asking me to call him back which I did. Talking to him is like a never ending story. We can chat until night or perhaps continue back after sleep and proceed until there’s nothing else to talk about. But since I was driving back to work, it was a compact 10 minutes conversation telling me that our friend Larence, whom was also his ex-housemate, died from stroke last Saturday. He was attending the funeral and didn’t manage to inform me earlier and another one is confidential which I am very reluctant to share here in my blog. Anyway, you know what to do kaban. There’s nothing which is impossible if you trust GOD!
