Hi everyone!

I just wanted to let you know that I will be visiting my sister for Christmas this year so I will be gone from 12/20-12/27.  She lives in Germany but we will also be visiting Paris and Madrid.  I am not sure what sort of internet access I will have but I will try to check in now and then.

I hope you all have a great holiday!

Oh, except for the whole missing my family thing, I've always wanted to go to another country for Christmas. Have a great trip and a wonderful Christmas!

Jackie, Abby's mom

Abby: Aug 1, 2009 – Jan 10, 2012. Our beautiful rescue pup lived LARGE with osteosarcoma for 15 months – half her way-too-short life. I think our "halflistic" approach (mixing traditional meds + supplements) helped her thrive. (PM me for details. I'm happy to help.) She had lung mets for over a year. They took her from us in the end, but they cannot take her spirit! She will live forever in our hearts. She loved the beach and giving kisses and going to In-N-Out for a Flying Dutchman. Tripawds blog, and a more detailed blog here. Please also check out my novel, What the Dog Ate. Now also in paperback! Purchase it at Amazon via Tripawds and help support Tripawds!

we are soooo going to miss you, Sammy, Titan and I.  Ever since we found you we have felt safe knowing you were just a half hour away!  Germany is much farther than 1/2 hour.....gulp.  

The good side is everything looks fine, so I guess we can part with you for a little while if we must!  We hope you have a wonderful and safe vacation, and come back feeling refreshed 🙂
