When you own a Rattie....you KNOW you are in your right mind 
THE MEANING OF RESCUE
Now that I'm home, bathed, settled and fed,
All nicely tucked in my warm new bed.
I'd like to open my baggage
Lest I forget,
There is so much to carry -
So much to regret.
Hmm... Yes there it is, right on the top
Let's unpack Loneliness, Heartache and Loss,
And there by my leash hides Fear and Shame.
As I look on these things I tried so hard to leave -
I still have to unpack my baggage called Pain.
I loved them, the others, the ones who left me,
But I wasn't good enough - for they didn't want me.
Will you add to my baggage?
Will you help me unpack?
Or will you just look at my things -
And take me right back?
Do you have the time to help me unpack?
To put away my baggage,
To never repack?
I pray that you do - I'm so tired you see,
But I do come with baggage -
Will you still want me?

| I love it when they say "mostly sunny". Isn't that the same as "partly cloudy"? LOL |

| Gee, you're right, that DOESN'T look good at ALL! Maybe Saturday's forecast will be good. Fingers crossed. |

| I live not far from there. Trust me it will change. They say it will rain.... & 90% of the time it's sunny & vice versa. They don't know what the weather is like until the day of. The weather is so hard to predict around here. That's East Tennessee for you. |

I dont put much stock in long range weather predictions. I'm still hoping for a wonderful, sunny 70-degree Friday AND Saturday |

I with Paul -- they can't tell what the weather will be tomorrow, much less in 10 days.
I say we WILL have nice weather!
P.S. I rode by the Sweetwater exit yesterday before I realized it, so didn't get to check the place out! So, guess we'll all find out at the same time! I'm sure it will be great - I can't wait. And if the drive is half as pretty as it was yesterday, you all are in for a treat! |

| Hopefully TN is like TX. They say if you don't like the weather in Texas, just wait a few minutes. It'll change. LOL Hope the site is grassy one, or the rain I'm gonna be driving in all the way over may leave the area a bit "sloppy". Hmmmm. Hope all the motels have lots of water, cause this could spell lots of doggie baths in the evenings. LOL |

The weather in Sweetwater is very unpredictable -- most of the Southeast is like that. We're unpredictable down here in Georgia, too. Everyone, think positive thoughts for great weather, please. Plus, bring your rain gear. That always keeps the rain away. LOL |

| That is looking better, Paul. Weather is always unpredictable in/near mountains anyway. Just can't hold much stock int he mountain forecasts. |

| I just wanted to give you all an update on the weather. I was watching the local news last night & saw that Friday will be perfect for you all but Saturday..... not so good. There's a 70% chance of rain. I THINK they said that there could be some thunderstorms but I'm not for sure. Don't hold it to me. Which still probably doesn't mean anything but I just wanted to give you all a heads up. I just checked with Accuweather & they just say a chance of rain. Usually though the local is right though. Just bring rain gear & maybe it won't come. =) |

I figure on bringing rain gear "just in case", but the weather here in central Indiana is just as unpredictable. In fact, the local forecast often calls for a 70% chance of rain, and it doesnt rain a drop. |

| Debbie on SE-RT said it was down to only 30% chance of rain Saturday on the local forecast. Weather.com is showing 50% for Saturday. I have my umbrellas and some rubber beach shoes if it gets sloppy. That will just have to do. |

They don't own any! My girls won't "wear clothes" of any kind. They wriggle out of or tear off anything you put on them! Button doesn't mind light rain too awfully much, just the downpours. Zipper was a stray, remember, so rain doesn't phase her much at all.
