Wow Villette! Girl, you ALWAYS are so on top of things, thinking of others - whether at holiday time or not. Thank you for starting this wonderful thread. I don't have a chance these days to get in here like I want to but when I have the chance, I always find these great posts
This Christmas will be a better one than last year for me and my family. Last year, we were still dealing with "Rita's" havoc and the fact she almost took my husband's life - by this time, he had been through 2 surgeries and on Christmas day, an infection set in and he was taken off work AGAIN! We made Christmas a happy time for the boys but hubby and I were just thankful he was still there with us. After 4 surgeries, and if you've never seen him before, you couldn't look at him and tell anything happened!
To all of my YT friends who've recently gone through surgery, loss of a loved one (whether friend or family member), and those who find the holidays especially hard - God bless you all! We are "family" here and will provide all the hugs, love, and shoulders we can for each of you. And for the puppy mill furbabies, oh, my heart breaks for you! Sending extra-special hugs and love to you
And thank you everyone for being here and a part of this great group! As I said, I don't get in here much these days due to issues at work and just busy, busy. You guys always pick me up just by sharing your stories, concerns, and pics of your precious babies.
