Taking Some Responsibility 23 Aug 2013 | 05:36 am

Chew. Biting Off More Than I Can... 17 Aug 2013 | 02:08 am
I'll preface this blog post by saying that I'm on some wonky cold medication. I'm not really "that sick", but just sick enough to take cold meds and need some daily naps. Blah. I decided to try one...
End of Summer 'Crazy' 13 Aug 2013 | 07:08 am

I Hate July 7 Jul 2013 | 09:12 pm
I had vowed to be a little more chatty with my blog, but lately it hasn't been easy to update. July really sucks for most rescues. While many people are going to cottages and holidays, I sit by the...
