Weekly Notes #1, and a Thank You!
So these are my first weekly notes ever, and I somehow picked a pretty eventful week for it. ๐ฎโ๐จ
๐ถ Kishu at the Vet
Our 13 year old poodle lady Kishu unfortunately has to be spayed. Her hormone levels, recurring false pregnancies, and increasing aggression towards our other dog sadly donโt leave us much choice. 1
๐จ A Hidden Artistic Talent

This week I published Drinking Beer with Mom. I wasn't sure if I wanted to put something this personal on the internet.
