Started the week bringing a new family member home. Meet our boy, Greco, AKA Rrricco Suave. He’s a big goofy puppy, and DH loves his dorky ears (or lack thereof …)! His coat is so velvety soft! Now that we’re settling into a routine, I’m making stuff in the studio. A new batch of hot …

Got through our tax session (Thanks Jim!) and a fun-filled E.R. weekend; Despite meeting one of the most unpleasant airline employees ever (service desk), we now have extended, four-legged family in NH, CO, NJ, PA and FL.
