A New Month…And A New Start
I wrote in my last blog entry about how busy this August has been compared to previous ones. Usually in August I start to twiddle my thumbs and wish the month away so that things can get back to normal in September after the holiday season. Everything seems to shut...
Sometimes….Just Sometimes….It Is OK To Get Off The Ferris Wheel
Gosh, it has been a while since my last post on here, and yet….it feels like it was just two minutes ago since I was posting about losing my beloved German Shepherd Curley. So much has happened since then, so many more trials and tribulations, so many more things to...

I’ve had a break from writing anything for this blog for a bit. There is still so much I want to write, still so much I want to say, still so much awareness raising I want to do. But this last week or so I have also returned to something that I was doing BF – before...
