I had my Daddy Crying This Morning :(
Tinkie here~
So Mamma gets woken up by Daddy standing next to the bed this morning at 4:30 am and he’s got tears in his eyes and he was stammering. Mamma jolted awake as he says that I am doing quite poorly. So they both go down stairs to see me. Daddy had gotten up at 4am to get ready for work and he found me laying on my back covered in poop and pee and quite unresponisve. I think that did it for him right there, he scooped me up and tried to get me cleaned up but I was still very lethargic and just let him do his thing. I was cool to the touch so he snuggled me up in the corner of my house right over my heater and went to wake up Mamma.
Meanwhile there is a huge blizzard going crazy outside, the wind is nuts and snow is everywhere. Mamma held her hands over me and could feel that I was still coolish so decided for now the only thing they could do was warm me. She gave me some of my “Bacon” (my fav vitamin B suppliment) and then she started some Reiki hopin the extra energy would help perk me up a bit. So Daddy is sittin on the couch cryin and not wanting to leave us when I’m like this, but Mamma has seen me through my worst episodes and she didn’t think was I was ready to check out yet. She told him I wasn’t going to leave them yet and I have an appointment with our vet this afternoon so for now she decided to wrap me up and take me back to bed so she could keep me warm and continue the Reiki for an hour or so.
So when Daddy was ready to leave he came to us in the bed and lay down with me in the centre and I smooched him like crazy trying to tell him I love him so much and that no matter what or when I’m OK. I don’t know I think that made him want to cry more but Mamma kept tellin him I was gonna be OK so he went to work and we don’t know when he’ll be back. I worry about him off driving in a bad storm 2 and half hours to work when he’s been cryin and upset like that
mamam told me later this morning he got down there finally about 10 am, the roads were real bad and accidents all over.
Poor Daddy has had a rough week and this weekend he was very emotional and depressed. Things are not going well at his work and he’s really worried about being able to take care of us all, Mamma tries to tell him we can only take it as it comes and alot can happend at any time, but we have no control until it does, so keeping the anxiety and fear deep in our chests will only make us sick. At the same time all he can do is look around at his option if there are any so he has a game plan if the worst happens and until then we have to make the best of it, there are so many out there in way worse situation and options are limited, but there will always be some options even though we may not like them. “sigh”
Ok so since my last blog I have stopped eating, I only managed a few nibbles of my salad if Mamma will tease me with it but then its very little. she has been syringing me mroe of hte CC in hopes to get me through this glitch. Mamma is thinking we’ll quite the antibiotic and give my body a chance to reset again and start feelin better, and she’ll ask Dr Deb to do the Aquapunture with the vitamin B again cause last time I started eating right away after that.
So I got to lay in be with Mamma for 4 hours and I smooched her the whole time!! And she didn’t even get cranky about it, but I don’t think she got very much sleep, hehe So I am must toastier this morning and I seem to perked up a bit and I did nibble a bit of fresh bokchoy and a bit of carrot top. when I’m done my bog I’ll have my CC and then we’ll get ready to go to the vet.
So I’ve been doin alot of thinking about Tinkie Couture over the last week or so seems I haven’t been feelin all that well a bunny has lots of time to think. I am so pleased with how well all stuff we have donated to the Bunnies In Need Group at Bunspace.com has done, but I think I am gonna have to start trying to bring in some money for Mamma to use toward my care now. Things are uncertain finacially but my expenses are pretty constant so I have decided to make Tinkie Couture a real business. I was thinking about maybe going down to the “Dragon’s Den” and asking for some venture capital to get a good start, but Mamma says they won’t lend money to bunnies and especially ones with uncertain health
That sucks but I think Mamma will have to help me launch this idea.
The hats and tiraras have done so much better than I thought and I think I can make them better and more exciting. I have even started on designing a Bridal Line, Tinkie’s Bride!! So far we have a tiara with veil and I’m working out ideas for a dress and dress vest for the groom. I think they will be super sweet. So I’m not trying to be a multi million dollar fashion house, but I think a small output will certainly help a lot with the upkeep of us buns here, I have to think about the legacy I will leave for Gracie and Puds too. So I hope nobun will mad at me or think less of me cause we are doing it like this. I still intend to donate things from the Tinkie line of Couture to the Bunnies in Need Group when they do they do their auctions to help contribute to the cause of helpin bunnes but I’ve got to think about trying to help myself too
So I will shortly release a few more tiaras for the BIN, I hope to get them photographed this week if I can start feelin a bit better and then I’ll be gettin Mamma’s butt in gear to set me up a little shop here~ I’m thinking House of Tinkie!! What do yous think? I am sorry to say the prices for things will be more here as well, I think its obvious to say that the prices have to be kept low on the BIN site, but I think from now on we’ll keep it to autioning format. I’m not gonna go crazy, but we want to do things with shipping included as well so that nobun has to worry about that. I’d appreciate any input from any of you buns on this idea.
Its my plan and intention to contribute as much design ideas to Mamma who will carry them out as I don’t have the thumbs to do actaul construction before I pass on and after that it is my expressed wish that she will continue in my name using my spirit as her inspiration for any future collections. This will be the legacy I leave for Puds and Gracie, I know Puds really does enjoy modeling and I hope that some time soon she will develope a little more grace and poise to continue as Tinkie’s spokesbun.I know she’ll do a good job and do me proud!!
So please wish me luck with my venture and I hope I’ll be feeling well enough soon to really put my attention toward this. I love you all my bunny buddies!! xooxT (L)

Keep strong little one! We know you can do it. I think that your idea to start a real business is a great idea. Mom has a web store and if she ever gets to it she is going to change it over to pet supplies and would love to carry your items. You go get em girl.

Dear friend, I think your idea to launch your Tinkie line is destined for success. You have already established a legacy with the strength of your spirit, your bravery and sense of humor in the face of adversity and the kindness you have always showered on your friends. I love you as dearly as any member of my own family. I’m happy you spent the night snuggling with your mom and you are all warm and toasty now. Your wonderful daddy’s heart is hurting because he must be away when you are sick. Good daddy’s always do what they must to take care of their loved ones. I’m sending all my healing energy to you today, and love to your parents. Tasha and Theresa
