On loyalty

Loyalty is not something we beg for nor simply ask.

On feeding your dogs with people food

We paid a visit to the vet the other day for Popoy’s 3 year rabies shot, annual physical and medical exams. Like always, Popoy was cleared from all the tests, except for the mild ear infection which the vet said is very common to dogs. When it came to the question, what do we feed [...]

Goodbye Oranjestad, I’m back to Baltimore

Our flight back home leaves early, as early as 5am. Going back filled us with mixed emotions. Happy to see our husbands again, sad to end the wonderful times we had there.

You would imagine that we would just drop dead to our beds after the flight, but like all picture addicts, we just [...]

Aruba Ariba!

I just returned from Aruba with my girlfriends.  5 days and 4 nights, never enough to enjoy when you don’t have your husbands and your wedding bands with you. Don’t get me wrong on this one.  I love having my husband around and my wedding band too, but it’s gratifying to know I am trusted [...]
