HAPPY MONDAY!!! IS EVERYONE BACK TO THEIR USUAL ROUTINE? READY TO READ?π We just started our normal lives back again as of today, and everyone has gone home from their holiday visit with us. I miss them, and all of it, already.
Three things:
1.) What an amazing holiday overall. Great memories were made, photos were taken and feast after feast was had. Everyone has left and I’m missing the last 2 weeks like crazy. Bittersweet, and I’m feeling melancholy, especially because…

2.) Welp… my beautiful Hobbit (she’s my 17 year old minpin), died on January 1st 2025. My heart is broken, and now that my full house is empty again, I’m feeling it all so much. She’s buried next to my Pimmie. I knew it was coming, but I miss my girl like crazy and I feel so fortunate to have adopted her at 8 years old. We had an amazing 9 more years together, her and I. She was silly and fun, and so spry even as a “tripod (she only used three of her legs)” and full of life almost to the very end. We made it here together and I am SO thankful. β€οΈ
3.) I’m especially so thankful that the Universe sent me two crazy 1 year old minpin siblings that I adopted back in May (Mika & Ace). We fell in love with each other and I plan to make the most of our years (decades!!) together. They are extra clingy to me these days, but I am here for it. My little angels.
