Hey everybody! Just wanted to share a little life update! Over the past few months there's been an empty spot in my home. Or at least it felt that way after Odin's passing. I've been working through my grief but I still felt lonely without a dog in the house. So when the opportunity to adopt a rescue dog came up, I decided to go for it. I thought giving a needful dog a good home would both help me with my emotions and be a great way to honor Odin's memory. There's no replacing him, but I think he would want me to help a fellow doggo. And I know he would have wanted me to be happy! So I'm happy to say that on Friday, I was able to bring home Rocky! He's a Shiba mix (at least I think so, the foster agency wasn't exactly sure), 5 years old, and is settling in nicely! He had a rough road to get here. Sadly his younger years were full of neglect and abuse. The poor guy has some scars to show for it. But now Rocky has a forever home with me! And I'm going to make sure he has the best life a dog could ask for!

However, one thing is that with bringing Rocky home this weekend, I haven't had as much time to devote to my artwork as normal. So this next week may be a little light. Story time will commence as usual, but I just don't have as many paintings ready as I normally do. I hope you all understand! I really appreciate all your love and support! As consolation, I have some real fun stuff in the works I think you all will enjoy! As always, thank you all so much for sharing in my life and my artwork! Hope everyone had as great a weekend as I did!
