Filed Under: news, parenting, unschooling

Today, I asked my mom if she had gotten any new comments regarding the article in the paper and she said she had not. Then I realized that I hadn’t heard what my grandparents thought about it so I inquired about their reaction. She paused and it was a Loooong pause so immediately I knew something was up. “You don’t…

Quiet Morning – Collecting My Thoughts

Filed Under: green living, unschooling

Today I’m taking full advantage of my two boys who are upstairs sleeping and two dogs who are curled up at my feet doing the same so I can organize all these thoughts in my head on Mindful and Minimal Living. For the past few days, my thoughts have been consumed by this and trying to figure out the most…

Bowie has had a tough year and a half. He was misd Bowie has had a tough year and a half. He was misdiagnosed by the first vet we used here and that led to a situation where the treatment almost seemed worse than the disease. Thankfully, @lawndale_vet helped us navigate that situation and they have nursed this big boy back to a much happier place. We still are uncertain about how much time we have left with him but, for now, he is the happiest we have seen him in a long time. I am so thankful to the staff at Lawndale for, not only providing great medical care, but for loving on him and making him feel like the best boy ever at each appointment. ❤️❤️❤️

This is the face of a very sad boy. Bowie has been This is the face of a very sad boy. Bowie has been suffering with licking granulomas since last March. We got the first one healed and then he got one on his other paw. Then that one got better but his paw pads got rubbed raw by the protective boot he was in and now are infected. Fingers crossed that this cone helps keep him from licking it so he can heal. Until then, Bowie is going to be a very sad boy, indeed. 😢

Yes, it’s still almost 80° here in NC but I’m getting impatient for cooler temps. Trying to will the cool air in! And how cute is that plate behind my cup? My sweet friend @tlventura made it for me and it’s one of two fall decorations I kept when we moved. Hope you’re having an awesome day wherever you are, friends!! ❤️❤️❤️
