This past month has flown by. It started with finding the home of my dreams. I was able to purchase and move in within three weeks. Now I have a home large enough that all my grandchildren can come and visit -- at the same time.

When things get complicated in your life as it sometimes will, don't ever give up, have faith and everything is going to get better. There is always light after the tunnel.

For a long time, I had a serious wariness of dogs
I'm afraid I don't have a memory of being bitten or chased by a dog when I was small to offer up some logic as to why, it's just the way I felt. However, about two years ago I came across someone walking a Siberian Husky, female. She took my breath away; that species, at least, gives some credit to the thought that dogs are descended from wolves. She was, to put it simply, beautiful. The owner smiled and let me pet her. Her soft, warm fur was silky and the way she wagged her tail in pleasure made me smile. She nuzzled my hand with her nose and I laughed.
I've adored dogs ever since, all dogs. And every time I encounter an owner walking their dog, I always put my hand out to pet them. When life settles down I'll get a dog of my own; a companion who is not a pet, but a warm, loving friend whose loyalty extends far more than a human friends' would. The thought of this future companion always brings a smile to my face and my hand tingles from the memory of soft, warm fur.

Enjoying working in the greatest market in NYC, Chelsea Market. Lost track of the number of tourist peering over me to watch bread making at Amy's Bread. Next stop the High Line Park.

Today I woke up feeling down, but I didn't let the bad start detour me from going out and making it a good day. I went to my favorite hangout spot, met up with a few friends and made it into a positive day. The moral is, even when your down you can't dwell on it, you have to get up, get out, and do something to lift your spirits. Live life!

"Your kindness is surely to be repaid." That was a fortune cookie I got today. Made me happy that my cookie thought I was nice.

It always hurts my heart just a little bit to see older people out and eating alone. It really just breaks my heart. So the other day I decided to do something about it. So I made a conscious decision that I would befriend and sit with any older people who I saw out and about that looked like they could use a friend. It makes me feel better to see a smile on their faces rather than a frown.

I have two beautiful chinchillas. Some days I can spend over a half an hour playing with them because they have such nice soft fur and such playful energetic demeanors.
