On Saturday, 13 July 2019, we said goodbye to our hairy toddler. Squeekerz was a lot of personality in a small package. And I’m so happy that we had 17 years with him.

But we decided to take him home anyway. We didn’t have…

So after I hit “publish” on this post, I’m gonna go veg on the sofa… So, let’s talk about this outfit, shall we? The earrings. I think…
