Why I do what I do<br />
Pet of the week<br />
Nine-year-old Butters came from a home<br />
that had over 90 cats and kittens. Butters<br />
is super friendly and affectionate. He enjoys<br />
giving head bumps and winding himself<br />
around legs while looking for attention.<br />
Butters enjoys playing with other cats, napping<br />
in sunlight and being petted all over,<br />
including his belly. He has been neutered<br />
and is up to date with vaccines. Butters is<br />
also diabetic. His diabetes is well managed<br />
and he does super well with receiving his<br />
insulin. If you are interested in meeting this<br />
boy and you may be thinking of adopting<br />
him, you can visit him at the Northeast Animal<br />
Shelter located in Salem. Visiting hours<br />
are Monday-Friday 10-8 and weekends 10-<br />
6. Butters is available for the Senior cat for<br />
Senior lap program. You can also view more<br />
information online @www.neas.org.<br />
Once upon a time there was<br />
a Sharon who felt “stuck.” She<br />
knew she wanted more but was<br />
unsure what that was…she tried<br />
many new things and although<br />
she was happy she felt attached<br />
to her old ways. Then one day<br />
her younger sister Maureen suggested<br />
yoga. She said sure why<br />
not and off they went on a yoga<br />
journey together. Her sister had<br />
been practicing for years so she<br />
showed her the best way to find<br />
out what type of yoga would<br />
work for her lifestyle and energy<br />
level…which was high.<br />
Together they visited many<br />
studios and took many classes<br />
and then they blogged about it<br />
in their blog site-Two Sisters’<br />
Journey. It’s still out there, although<br />
they haven’t posted in a<br />
few years.<br />
Once that journey was complete<br />
Sharon went off and practiced<br />
yoga in her own way, and<br />
it felt good. So when her sister<br />
asked her if she was interested<br />
in taking her teacher training<br />
program, Sharon replied “Sure,<br />
but I’ll never be a yoga teacher.”<br />
Silly right. So off she went to<br />
New Hampshire one weekend<br />

Pets of the week<br />
and others at<br />
neas.org<br />
to begin her next step. The first<br />
day during lunch she heard a<br />
couple of the students talking<br />
about kid’s yoga. Her head spun<br />
around and said tell me more.<br />
They did and she signed up for<br />
more trainings and has never<br />
looked back.<br />
Sharon is no longer stuck…<br />
Sharon is exactly where she is<br />
supposed to be and is doing exactly<br />
what she is meant to do at<br />
this stage of her life. Nothing<br />
gives her more joy than seeing<br />
those smiling faces, except her<br />
grandson Connor and family.<br />
So, next time someone asks<br />
you to try something new maybe<br />
you should give it a shot…who<br />
knows where it will lead.<br />
