Rescue me!

My M decided that I was too much a scaredey cat, and I need to be braver. I don't know why she keeps calling me a scardey cat, when I'm not a cat, and there's not that many things I'm scared of.

I mean, I'm only scared of washine machines, vacumn cleaners, bamboo poles, big burley man, big bags, sudden noises, big boxes, men in army uniform, big male dogs, ronald macdonalds, electricity generators at fairs, huge crowds, hissing cats, falling things... etc etc etc etc. That's not a lot, right?

(M: Trust me, the list is longer than that...)


So she decided to try Bach Flower Remedies. She was reading through the list and thought there's a whole bunch I could use.



Aspen sounds suitable for 'vague and unaccountable fears' or
Impatiens for 'Impatient and seeming to have boundless energy' or
Larch for 'Lack of self-confidence' or
Mimulus for 'For fears; Shy and timid animals' or
Vervain for 'Enthusiastic, always want to be involved, high strung' or
Rescue Remedy for 'Stressful situations'.

In the end she felt that she could live with my excitable behavior, I just need to be a little braver. And since Aunty G has a few bottles of the bachflower, she made me a concoction of Larch and Mimulus. I'm supposed to have 4-5 drops about 4 times a day, but since my M is working, she'll give it to me 3 times a day.

I wonder if this will really make be braver. I don't wanna be a cat anymore. I'm a DOG!

Maggie & Mitch, I'm not scared of the food... I'm just scared of the ronald macdonald statue outside the restaurant. I'm sure they put it there to keep me away!
