Thank you!! And I'm glad you posted the CUTE picture of me and not the awkward one that Ge' posted. 🙂 🙂 🙂

Now if the hubster would just get home from work in time for us to make our dinner reservation, my day will be complete. 🙂

Thanks again,
Jackie

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.

Thanks again! He did make it home in time and our date was very fun and involved margaritas, so that is always good. 🙂

Also there was chocolate lava cake and it is not possible to have a bad day when chocolate lava cake is involved.

Happy Belated Birthday!!!!! Now where is that red party hat??

Spirit Samson was Spirit Tripawd Daisys four legged "brother" and ruled as the self proclaimed head of the Monkeybutt Federations East Coast Division. Lady Chunky Monkey stayed from Oct 2011 and left for the bridge in Apr 2012. Miss Perdy is left and has some big pawprints to fill.
Do you have what it takes to be a Monkeybutt? Find out more at the Monkeybutt Federation

Birthday or no birthday, margaritas are gooood. Hope you you were good, too! Happy late birthday, Jackie!

Beth and Spirit Smilin' Sammy

Smilin' Sammy, March 16, 2004 – Dec. 5, 2011
Golden retriever, diagnosed with osteosarcoma in September 2010 — right front leg amputated November 2010. He fought valiantly to stay with us; but a second diagnosis of osteosarcoma, this time in his left front leg, was more than our golden warrior could overcome. He loved his pack — and everyone else he met.

We loved him even more.
Thanks for the pennies, Sammy. They helped.

That was supposed to say "never fear." Geez. You'd think I'd been in the margaritas again this morning!
