Today I learned that for *cough* only $399 I could buy a Publishers Weekly review. For that amount, I could give away 10 paperbacks...So, let's do that instead. For the next 10 wks, I'll give away a book a week. Like this post and follow for a chance to win WHILE I WAS GONE. Entries close on 9/22 🖤

It really is. It’s all gotten so gross and greedy.

My new dog is from a breeder because I wanted a bomb proof pup with health clearances after what I’d been through with the seizures and keeping my other one calm and safe for 12 years.

I’m tired of the judgement about everything. You don’t know someone’s story unless you live with them. My last 2 dogs were rescues. 1 had seizures & a brain tumor at 9, my hound had such fear & anxiety I could barely leave the house until he passed of old age. People need 2 mind their own business
