We went for the third acupuncture session on Thursday evening. Teddy was very stressed about the car ride and being at the vet. He had been in pain again leading up to our appointment and even though it

I am so very lucky to still live in the same city as most all of my immediate family. Each one of us have busy lives but have adopted patterns to keep us connected. Through a series of recent events both

The other day I set out on a wonderful hike with a dear friend. It was such a magnificent day and we were both elated to be out in nature in the unusually warm winter weather. I was so happy to share one

I was already having a pretty awesome day today. The sun is shining once again in our winter disguised as spring. I woke up feeling pretty charged for the day and was getting a lot accomplished which always
