So, it is the last day of 2014, also the final WW of the year. Due to this being the year’s closing blog, it will not be quite so wordless, however, if you want to truly keep to the theme, then let me just say Happy New Year and leave you here. If you want a bit more, follow me over the jump.

2014 also earned a place in my heart as one of the hardest years when it comes to our furry friends. We said goodbye to five members of our family, Mabel, Maggie, Gunnar, Moses, and the irreplaceable, Snuffy.

But time stops for no man, or dog for that matter. Looking ahead to 2015, we have some big things in store. One item I will elaborate on in a post very soon is a planned relocation. Also on the docket for next year, I intend to get Loki his BH in March. Finally, those who know me know I have the same New Year’s resolution year after year. Even if I achieve it, I can also reaffirm it the following year. I also wish this same thing for you. In all things, in all ways, just get better.

Happy New Year.
