    I know Heaven’s time is getting shorter too. She was wrapped up in her blanket waiting for me to get comfy so she could cuddle at my feet. She is a spoiled little girl and I’m okay with that!

    SQUARES – Follow Up

    On Sunday, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers take on the Green Bay Packers for the NFC Championship title. Losing my hat was kind of superstitious, but the fact that I’ve had it for almost 20 years broke my heart to have lost it. It fits my head and keeps my ears warm in cold weather.
