December, 2020 | Monthly Selections Well, helloooooooooooooooo 2021! My how we have waited for your arrival! My December round-up is usually a recap of the year so more words, less pics, but let's start with the photos. I met a sweet foster/fospice dog named Eeyore, who came for photos as a part of his “bucket list” and let me tell you, dogs truly are the very heart of forgiveness. I see it over and over again, dog after dog. Eeyore was failed by his humans, but a foster stepped up - and became a hospice foster when they learned he was riddled with cancer - and his rescue, BAC Penny Paws, did all they could for him. Eeyore said his goodbye knowing he was loved in the end. It was an honor to meet you, sweet boy. Thank you for the kisses. December is historically crazy for me with photo fundraisers and then prepping the files for guests so they have them for their own holiday needs, and I don't usually schedule client sessions in December because I'm focused otherwise. But after the event work is done, I always try to take a winter break and decompress a bit. This year was no different as we went to the TN mountains for a few days, where we rented a cabin with a HUGE fenced in yard, saw some flurries, walked the skybridge (which was amazing!), wandered the Smoky Mountains one very cold day (Gracie’s first mountain trek) and I even NAPPED once, which is something I never do!
I do need to give one last shout out to my husband for embracing his volunteer Santa gig this year, even growing a real beard to give guest pets a more authentic experience! In spite of (or because of?) Covid, people really turned out to support local rescues and shelters as soon as the coast was a little clear and guidelines for safe distancing made sense. Adoptions and fostering have been solid and I hope this trend continues long after Covid goes away. Our little family stayed healthy this year (knock on wood), including Roux and Gracie! And while March and April were strange when the lockdown really kicked in, my work activities didn’t suffer this year and for that I am very thankful! I am entering 2021 with a new schedule in mind, and allowing myself time to pursue personal projects (and a little downtime) rather than feel like I’m always working. I hope whatever goals you set for your new year are achievable, maintainable and that all good things come your way! _____
