It was a long morning for us both. 
I thought she was never coming back,
and she didn't know where they were taking her.
Hours passed.  I worried. 
Where was everyone? Was Carlie okay?
I heard the jingle of keys near the door and bolted down the hallway toward them.
Carlie was back! She was fine! 
At that moment I decided I was never to let her out of my sight again. Ever.
And so the obsessive love stalking began....
