Quick Post Before The Promised Post, Since...

This must be said before the regularly-scheduled kvetching...

"Momma" and Reilly wish a happy Mother's Day to all whom have been in and filled maternal shoes, and to all whom have helped those whom wear and fill maternal shoes!

Preview Of The Next Post: A Smug Camille(?!), Grooming Appointments, How Reilly Resembles "Momma", Etc..

1. Camille did indeed get smug with a jealous Reilly.
2. Both Camille and Reilly, meanwhile, have grooming appointments later today (Pictures will follow, God willing).
3. Reilly resembles "Momma" and....well, let's just say that there is a negative side to it.
4.  Etc., including anticipating to see how Mother's Day goes. 

Somewhat Offbeat: Maybe This Mother's Day Will Bring "Momma" (and Reilly) Some Luck

After all, "Momma" still needs a helpmate for herself and somebody to love, and a "Daddy" for Reilly to love. Besides, Mother's Day falls on the Gregorian Israeli Independence Day and the third anniversary of ten days before "Momma" brought Reilly home.

Besides—for example and as frequently aforementioned—Reilly continues to eat "nasties" and can rarely be reached by "Momma" to get them out of her mouth, "Momma" frequently worries that Reilly will severely or even fatally self harm without "Momma" being able to do anything about it. Also, "Momma" still wants to know what Reilly's possible "Daddy" wants as both she and Reilly are getting only older—and "Momma"'s certainly getting grayer along with getting older (and part of the getting older and grayer is often due to the stress that Reilly's bad behavior can affect as well as having little to no support when, for instance, she has to use the muzzle on Reilly or when she wants to try using the electric toothbrush to get Reilly used to the groomer's brushes).

In short, what can "Momma" say that she hasn't said before regarding needing a helpmate and someone to love, and a "Daddy" for Reilly to love? You'd also think that Yehovah (though He is nonetheless righteous and just in all of His ways) would help "Momma" and Reilly out—though He often doesn't seem to do so (notwithstanding that He owes neither "Momma" nor Reilly anything).

Meanwhile, who on Earth could resist having this "dogter" (on the right) and furniece (on the left)?

Maybe Reilly & Camille Get Their Cameraphobia From "Mom-Mom"?

Camille once again had be tricked (with a sock and to say "Hi" to "Mimi"); and "Mom-Mom" chose to serve as a background prop for Camille's and Reilly's photoshoot, notwithstanding that "Momma" already promised to crop her out. 

By the way, the lighting should indicate a literal morning-evening difference in the photoshoots; and Reilly was inadvertently in a "puppy-in-a-blankie" ("dog-in-a-blanket") setup.

Happy Acquaintance Day, Reilly!

Short of one day a year before Reilly met Camille, Reilly's "Momma" and "Auntie Michelle" (Camille's "Mimi") met Reilly. "Auntie Michelle" got pictures and video—"Momma", on the other hand, was too busy meeting and greeting Reilly:



This is the only picture that "Momma" got, meanwhile:



Exactly three weeks later, Reilly came home (away from home, anyway: im yirtzeh Yehovah, "Momma" and Reilly plan to make aliyah and take "Momma"'s—at least for now, possible—helpmate and Reilly's—at least for now, possible—"Daddy"¹.)

¹ Although he's insisted that he's not Jewish—long story!

Happy Acquaintance Day, Camille!

On May 2, 2015—which was, by the way, the 70th Anniversary of VE Day!—Reilly met Camille. As on May 2, 2015, today's Acquaintance Day for Camille fell on an auspicious date: this time, the day was Israeli Independence Day (Yom Ha'Atzma'ut, which actually did fall on Iyar 5—not Iyar 6—of 5708).













For Camille the MaltiJew, this makes sense. 

Incidentally, Camille seemed to like "Czardas" when "Auntie Nicole" listened to it one night. "Auntie Nicole" wonders, then, how Camille would react to this—especially partly since "Mimi" used to play the violin.

Somewhat Offbeat: Two Things That "Momma" Has Explained To Reilly Multiple Times, One Of Which She Has Also Explained To Fellow Humans Of Hers

As patient Reilly continues to wait for night-owl "Momma" on a daily basis, "Momma" thinks about something that she's explained to Reilly multiple times: "Momma" even sometimes gets a goofy look on her face when she thinks about a certain person whom could be in her and Reilly's lives; and to not have an answer from that certain person gets hard especially since "Momma"'s pretty much implied here and explicitly to Reilly how she feels about him, and Reilly seems to think that he's a person whom should be in her and "Momma"'s lives.

By the way, let's just say that "Momma" has a few not-so-nice words for those whom can't figure out by now why she frequently mentions that she needs a helpmate for herself and a "Daddy" for Reilly—especially because many of them don't want to figure it out, and how (un)fortunate they are to have never suffered quite a bit of what "Momma" has suffered or have had anything that they've suffered affect them or their pets (since, for example, they apparently have no need for compassion).

Reilly waits patiently for "Momma" on a pile of "blankies" as "Momma" wraps up for the night.

A Patience-Tried Reilly, How To Bribe Cam For Pictures, Etc..

Even though "Momma" is feeling somewhat better from yesterday, she has a "dogter" whom is not happy with her. In fact, said "dogter" tried to follow "Auntie Michelle" and Camille upstairs, as well as whine and whimper. Meanwhile, she waits once again for "Momma"*.

Speaking of waiting, Camille also was patient with "Auntie Nicole" yesterday: she let "Auntie Nicole" take a few pictures, especially ones for "Mimi":

To Cam: "Say 'Hi, Mimi!'"

However, Camille was not patient with "Mom-Mom" during brushing. Since (like Ralphie with his "BB-gun mania") Camille with gourmandia no "knows no loyalties" (as Ralphie would say), and "aunt-uition" kicked in for "Auntie Nicole"—in other words, "Auntie Nicole" knew that Camille still wanted to be in the kitchen as "Mimi" pulled the chicken (none of which either Reilly or Camille has had so far 🙁). Of course, "Mom-Mom" wasn't happy about "Auntie Nicole" pointing that out!


*Hablando de paciencia, una nota incidental á un persona cierto: yo todavía quiero una respuesta clara de tí. ¿Mi suposición es que pienses que a lo mejor estás eso persona cierto que Reily y yo necesitamos estar en nos vidas, pero es mi suposición correcta? Continúo esforzándome estar paciente mientras espero para tí dar una respuesta clara. Especialmenmte si Yejovah te dice me dar una respuesta clara, dame una respuesta clara: no tener una respuesta afecta una mí confundida y desconsolada por el bien de mí misma y por el bien de Reily.

Somewhat Offbeat: Another Usual Kind Of "What the ****" Day & More Pictures

Today is a little different, though, as "Momma" wasn't hunching over with nausea or trying to not throw up last time—and she also couldn't feel her stomach hurt, spasm, or do whatever it's doing as she tries to type. Perhaps exhaustion partly explains it. Meanwhile, as Reilly patiently waited for "Momma" on Monday night and snuggled by her during the day, she made clear that the exhaustion especially exacerbates her hatred of having her picture taken:

"Fine time to take a picture!"

"!אוי; לא! אני לא אוהבת את זת"

"Will Tolerate Pictures For Scritches And Belly Rubs"

That is all.

(And see, "Mom-Mom", "Momma" does love Reisy.)

Somewhat Offbeat: A Few Remarks From "Mom-Mom" Over the Past Few Days & A Note To Someone

"After Mom-Mom" said that "Momma" doesn't love Reilly as much as she loves Cam, "Momma"/"Auntie" got incredibly sarcastic with her and sent her this picture—which she took for her phone wallpaper—this morning: "You're right: I don't love Reilly or ever try to take pictures of her."

She also sent an earlier picture:

"She wanted me to take her picture."

"Mom-Mom" later said that "it's about time" instead of apologizing to "Momma".

Remarks like that sting, and especially after (for example) "Mom-Mom" already accused "Momma" of being "lazy" for not putting Reilly's soft food in the fridge right away or in a jar a few days ago—notwithstanding that "Momma" put it in a bag and tried to put a lid over it before she and Reilly went "night nights"—and "Momma" neither knew or heard that she was supposed to put it way, as she thought that "Auntie Michelle" was supposed to put it away that time. But if se did hear it, she forget that she heard it due to her ADD—and she can't just "train [herself]" to manage it better.

Speaking of which, "Momma" has a quick note for someone:

¿Porqué hiciste pensar que yo fuera áspera con respecto a qué ella dijo a mí a eso un momente? Yo no fuera áspera. Por cierto, pienso que entiendo quiere con respecto a una situación específica en relación a Reily; pero dime lo que quiere á alguno punto, por lo menos si y/o cuando Yejovah quiere que dime lo—¿puede lo hacer?—y esto es muy dificil por mí pedir, pero necesito lo hacer porqué, por ejemplo, no tener una repuesta clara afecta exacerbaciones de mi enfermedades mentales.
