On this day nine years ago, a tiny puppy named “Blue Bell” came home with me. Little did I know what a terror, what a precious, what a CrAzY nutcase she would be. My Emma wrapped her little paws around my heart & I’m so grateful for her & her BIG personality and constant entertainment. 💗🐾😂🥰

Really struggling to look away from the constant circus of atrocities and focus. On work. On growing my business. On anything positive or good. It hasn’t even been 2 weeks, and every day the firehose spews more hatred. And people still support it! People I care about. I do not understand. #darkdays
