First week after the extended Sabbath
I'm not always tired, you know! But don't you know these nights when you just observe how the clock turns 12:00, 12:30, 1:00, 1:15, 1,30, 1:45, 2:00, 2:20, 2:40, 3:05, and perhaps 3:30 ? Last night was one of these nights. What would I do if God hadn't blessed the seventh day of the week and settled for us that we could rest that one day? Right now, I just need it more than ever.
It's been a tough week. I guess, it's always kind of tough to return at school or to get back to work in general. I was just getting used to this extended Sabbath I had. My entire body seems to have problems switching back to ordinary life. For instance, I caught a cold Tuesday night. My immune system may be weakened because of a high stress level. Or it might just be because the dorm is not very well insulated. But according to personal statistics I catch a cold approximately twice a year, at early spring and at late summer (or is it early autumn?). So I had it coming.
Wednesday, Mum got back one of last year's puppies. So now, we suddenly have four dogs in the house, a week ago we only had two. But we are not gonna keep this one. She's going to help the owners sell him. They've had him for a year, but he still isn't house trained, and he's been biting and gnawing their furniture. I think, It's odd. There has been no problems with the other puppies we've sold, and there are no problems with the dog's temper, it seems. He likes people, he's very happy, a bit too sex fixated, though. He can't make any of our bitches pregnant, because something's wrong about his testicles. Doesn't keep him from trying, though.
But we might know some of the explanations to the problems, they've had with him. If you ever get a male dog, don't expect him to go outside to do the farting stuff all by himself. You'll have to teach him this procedure! What else could you expect from a pet? If you leave him alone in the house from early morning till late noon, then don't expect him to stay on a certain spot behaving like an angel who keeps his poop inside - as if humans would. Trust me, he'll do whatever you don't want him to do. He'll tear apart your magazines and newspapers and spread the pieces in the living room. He'll scratch your couches, eat your rubbish and throw it up in your bed, next to his other personal leavings (you know what I mean).
Of course, we don't know for certain what's been going on. But I personally suspect they have not taken the responsibility as they should have. I hope mum will find some people who are willing to pay more time on him. By the way, his name is bambino. If you'd like to take the responsibility it takes and want to have a kind and active Cavelier King Charles Spaniel in exchange for only 6000 kroner (Danish money, less in $ and £)... nah, what are the odds? ;)
It's a great dog, though.
Besides the dog and my cold, I have no interesting news for you.
But have a Happy Sabbath. :-)

Doing pastoral studies? Good for you!
Romans 12:16
Be of the same mind toward one another;do not be haughty in mind, but associate with the lowly. Do not be wise in your own estimation.
