I’m sick. Not the “head cold, I get to stay home sick” but the “time to go to the hospital sick.” I was really trying not to post on it because I was hoping it would magically go away. (I also believe in unicorns just so you understand what is real to me.) I haven’t …

Taking a week or so off
My Dear Readers: I wanted to let you know why I haven’t written anything new over the past week. My dog died. It is that simple or maybe not so simple. Shadoe was our 14.5 year old German Shep/Lab. My husband gave her to me on our first married Christmas. She has been my faithful …
