Work Kicks Mah Butt

I haven’t died. I haven’t quit blogging. I wasn’t so emotionally spent by my past post that I had to hide or take a break.

I’m a Rat Lover

Little know fact about me: I love rats. Several years ago, while Tucker was at boot camp for the Navy, I became very, very lonely. I had Sophie, the wonder pit bull, but I still felt a huge gaping hole in my heart where there should have been a Tucker. In my desperation to fill… Continue reading I’m a Rat Lover
