Ahhh, Fall is here.  I don’t know about you, but this summer flew by like no other before. Here and gone so fast, like a meal at chipotle—hot spicy and delicious, only to exit our lives/intestinal tracts seemingly too unexpectedly quick. In summer our adult lives go on mostly the same, while we are left […]

Leap of Faith

Yesterday was a trip to NYC for a birthday dinner celebrating my younger daughter Sawyer who was turning 12.

Why we should suddenly be pitying cats–part 2 - The Blended Vet

Right meow, between COVD-19 and Easter, it’s really not the best time for cats.  Let me explain.

our zombies of the apocalypse We’re here in New Jersey in the middle (or more likely just the beginning) of the COVID-19 outbreak.  There’s still no toilet paper in stores and we’re hoarding our last rolls like we are in a Soviet prison circa 1949.  Our own kids are all home from school but we […]
