New pup pics, an anniversary & writing update
I took some photos of Loki & Odin the other day (they couldn’t have been more perfectly posed). Aren’t they handsome boys? Derek & I had our 23rd wedding anniversary on Sunday. I cannot believe it’s been 23 years — what can I say, time flies when you’re having fun. : [...]
