Do you have a #selfcare buddy?

Lizze took the boys to school and let me sleep in this morning. She’s pretty awesome. Actually, she’s pretty and awesome. 😉 Anyway, she had an appointment this morning, and when she got back, I was able to go for my walk. I don’t usually like walking between the hours of 10 AM and 3 …

Just a quick update about Ruby

We had to get Ruby into the vet because we were concerned about her stitches and what looked like recent bleeding. This is what we were looking at. Turns out she’s actually okay. That’s a big relief. ☺ She did mess up one of the stitches but the incision is still closed and she’s not …

Another Day Another Routine Disruption

The boys got off to school after a rough start to the day. They were at each other’s throats before they were even dressed for the day. That said, they made it to school, albeit a bit later than normal but in a good mood. I got my morning walk done and was just settling …

The vast majority of the …

An important update on Ruby, our cute little Chorkie

This is a short but interesting update, dealing with how Ruby is doing since Maggie passed. We’ve had animals pass away before and there’s almost always a change in those that remain. When Cleo died last year, Blue (our only remaining cat) became much more outgoing than he’d been previously. When Maggie died a little …

It’s funny how things work out

Tomorrow marks one week since Maggie passed away. I’m not sure if the significance of the day will strike the kids or not but I’m certainly not going to raise their attention to it. We’ve been preparing for awhile now that Maggie wouldn’t be around forever but we had no idea how soon she would …
