Another Sleepless Night

This inevitably happens every month at a certain point in my cycle. I just can't sleep. My mind just won't shut off. Faith and I made our monthly trip to the library yesterday and I had to look and see what other books Gary Chapman has. I picked up one about the 7 keys to love. It's an expansion on his love language concept with these keys which from what I have read so far are the foundations of giving authentic love. I will be delving into it more and let you know what I discover. Sadly, we had to take our youngest cat, Streak, back to the adoption agency we got her from today. We broke the news that Streak was going to be going to a new home to Faith a couple of days ago and Streak has been locked up in the bathroom ever since. I came home from Las Vegas and my whole house just stank of cat urine. Thankfully, I don't believe she actually pee'd on the main floor but the recent rains have made the moisture in the basement increase and the smell comes back. We had hope we had gotten rid of it. Unfortunately, Streak as the vet put it, is a very fastidious cat. She likes her cat liter super clean. I do the best I can but we just couldn't let our house be run by this cat any longer. I think she will be happier in a home without other cats. It's been a sad day but we are going to pray that God will protect her and find her just the right home. I am going to do an act of service now and pretend to be a "Pet adopter" for my daughter and her friend, than I will read a little more, have some wine, make dinner, eat my yummy poundcake that is baking as I write and God willing fall asleep easily tonight!
