UPDATE: Elphie

Well, it's almost 4:00pm and I still haven't left yet.... So much for hoping to beat the Jacksonville rush hour. At least my plane isn't until the morning. Anyhow, I just wanted to let everyone know that we've found a home for little Elphie! The other day we took Isis to the vet, and ran into a woman with a 9 month old chihuahua who looked like she could be Elphie's baby - same colors and markings. We got to talking with this woman, and she took our phone number and said she'd call if she found any of her chihuahua-owning friends who might be interested. Anyhow, as of this afternoon, Elphie is living with an elderly woman. She used to have two chihuahuas and a husband, but one of the dogs and the husband both died of old age. So now Elphie has a chihuahua playmate! Mom and I were both a bit teary-eyed when we drove off, but I think she will be in good hands. Mom is going to go over there tomorrow to visit, to make sure everything is going well. Alright, I really should get going. See you in Korea!

i have mixed feelings about it.... it's great that she has a good home where she's one of only two little dogs and where she'll get a lot of attention.... but they renamed her SALLY for goodness sakes!
