Happy 4th of July

I would like to wish everyone out there in blogger-land a wonderful, fun and safe 4th of July.

Please remember to bring in your pets, especially dogs who usually freak completely out at the onset of the nights festivities.

For our dogs, we have them in a room that has window coverings, several little doggie tents with enough material that they can crawl under and the radio on.  Only one of the dogs, the alpha-male Brutus gets extremely anxious / nervous with loud noises such as thunder or fireworks, so for him he gets an anxiety pill provided by his vet, it usually does the trick for him.  The other two dogs just look at him as if he's lost his little mind.  On occasion though if it is really bad, they tend to get nervous because he is nervous.

In any case, keep it fun, keep it safe!

The Beauty Of It All

So why the move?  Personal reasons, found myself questioning if what I was living was truly as good as it can get for me?  Was I settling for what I thought was enough and all that I deserved.  When my inner-me answered with a loud and bold, yes, I had no choice but to listen.

We all have a sad story, we all have a need and desire to speak of it, get it off our chest and to be told that it will get better or that we did the best that we could under the circumstances.  I don't want to go there right now.  Life is what 'we' as individuals make it out to be and this is my adventure down a path leading me to the time of my life.

California will be greatly missed.  My friends and family will be greatly missed.  But we have a means to see each other or call, so this distance between us will end up being an adjustment, not a downfall.
