Going to California...

The decision has been made- I'm going to Dog Psychology School! I'm SO excited. It will be a month in California and then six months back at home working with dogs and being mentored by my teacher. It was a big decision for me, and I knew it was what I wanted to do, it just came along with alot of self-doubts! It's amazing- I feel like I've done alot of work in that arena- and here is something that is bringing it all up in my face again. I guess this is pretty important if it's bringing all of this old deep stuff up again. At times it feels as if I haven't done any work on it in the past. But, that doesn't matter. What matters is that it's here now, and I love myself and accept and support myself right now.

Zeppelin is having surgery today to remove a tumor that is cancerous. She has lots of fatty cysts, but this is the first one to be cancer. Breast cancer. We don't know if it is a localized cancer or one that spreads, but we'll find out in a few days after the biopsy. Hopefully it will be the localized type, but I also wouldn't be suprised if it spreads. We'll see soon though. It should be easy to remove and hopefully her recovery will be easy as well.

I'm headed to California in about two weeks. I can't wait for some warmer weather! It warmed up to the 50's and nearly 60 yesterday, but now it's headed back to the 30's and 40's. It's ok, it's better than the teens or 20's. I'm not sure when it starts to warm up a little in the Asheville area. Hopefully it's soon.

Seems like there are other things to write about, but for now I think this will be it. I'll write more later. I hope you are well out there :)
