Homie Needs Our Help!

Hi everyone! It's been a very busy week for me: I need to take a test tonight and also finish a psychology literature review that I was so not prepared for. Procrastination does not pay off, so I am working hard to stop that bad habit. Some things are better off left for another day, but not the test or the lit review. Thanks Dr. Woods! I kid, I kid!

Anyway, enough about me. I am taking a few minutes off my busy day to help spread the word about our friend Homie the Frenchie. He fractured a leg in two places and the cheapest way to fix it is by amputation. His human needs help raising the funds in order to avoid this measure, and because I love my Frenchie more than life itself, I am taking on this medium to reach out to as many people as I can. Thinking about my Bear Maximus in pain brings me to tears, so I can only imagine what Homie's human dad is feeling. 

If you can find it in your heart to donate a few bucks, please do so - we would do the same for you...

*** Please make your donation here and leave him a few nice words too. The world will find a way to pay you back! ***

Homie thanks you in advance :-) Isn't he so adorable? Those ears, I swear!

Homie the Frenchie


And just because I share pictures of my Bear Max every chance I get, here he is again...

Bear Maximus - I love you so much, my puppy!

Happy Fourth!



Hey you guys! There’s just one more day ‘til some of us get to enjoy a three-day weekend! Lots of fun activities are ahead – hanging out with the family and friends, enjoying some ice cold beers and watching the fireworks from the distance. This coming Fourth of July will mark what I like to call the “2nd Annual Giants Fest.” Our friends Brandon and Heather are super nice (and super tall, thus the term giants) to host a party at their house and I am lucky to be on the VIP list (or so I like to think). Last year the party didn’t really have a theme; it was just a fun house party with lots of friends and tons of beer – we had to do a beer run early in the afternoon bc we were thirsty! However, this year’s party has a theme. Wait for it, wait for it… “Texas Trash” or what I like to describe as “Texas Trailer Park Trash,” maybe?? Don’t ask me what that means because I am not from Texas, but I did get here as fast as I could. My attempt at this “Texas Trash” costume involves a pair of True Religion denim cutoffs that I found at the Salvation Army, a Walmart tank-top, white bikini top, and my Nike Dunk Sky Hi wedge sneakers. Let’s not forget the accessories and my mason jar mug. Boom!




Anyway, just want to wish everyone a safe and happy Fourth of July, but most importantly, I’d like to give thanks to those who made our freedom possible – you are my heroes! ‘Murica!!
