2012

well happy new year! in the middle of a much needed 3-day weekend. spent yesterday grading a bunch of papers while tay and cody were out with aunty meredith (thanks a bunch aunty mere!). the start to the new year has been slightly rough, hoping that in june things will start to turn around. well, in chucky's case, earlier. he is destined to be in the office, where his passion and talents are able to flow freely and with purpose. although he enjoys parts of his current position, i'm sure it's tough to feel "caged" in a situation that you aren't doing something that truly makes your heart sing. my fingers are crossed that *something* happens this spring.

was looking at old pictures of kai last night. i still think of her at least twice a day. i love that dog. and while i was looking  at some old photos, my heart smiled. and i feel so blessed to have had time with her and at peace that she is happy and vigorous in heaven.
