No pictures today, but I did want to share that we did a few errands today. We had an appointment with my psych nurse, went to the pharmacy to drop off prescriptions, stopped by Sam’s, and stopped by Staples. Hestia was pretty darn good in Sam’s (and the other […]
Today it is supposed to rain all day, but I didn’t want that to deter me from my daily walk (4 days in a row today!). I also figured that since the weather was so miserable, there wouldn’t be a lot of dogs out, so I could take Ollie on […]
Today was a Hestia-focused day. Of course there were the usual morning snuggles while waiting for Brad to wake up. I spent some time fantasizing about a galaxy fabric themed vest for her (black background with stars and purple and blue nebulas), and then thought that it would be super […]

On Saturday we had the annual NAMI walk. NAMI stands for the National Alliance on Mental Illness, and I am on the board of directors for the local chapter, as well as volunteering for our chapter to give talks and lead support groups. Every Saturday my NAMI friends meet for […]
