What's Happening

This week has been a whirlwind of activities and emotions. Last Sunday we realized that our trip to Norway in June was essentially blown to bits. Hubby spent the better part of Sunday and Monday trying to get our money back and then deciding where we were going instead. We ended up booking a trip to Alaska with stays before and after in Seattle and Vancouver. I'm excited! It's a trip we were planning for next year and instead are going this year.

On Tuesday I had an SEO audit of my site. Thankfully there isn't a lot to fix but there is a lot of potential and I am excited about that. A couple of things were brought up and I would love your input on this. Should I move this newsletter to an email format only with links back to the site, or keep it as a blog post? Thoughts? Hit reply and let me know!

On Wednesday, Walt, our dog, underwent a lung biopsy to try to figure out what is happening with his right lung. He spent two nights in the ICU and he is now home and doing well. The surgery was more "major" than what we expected, but he is in good hands and his local internal medicine vet is partnering with vet pulmonologists and researchers in Oregon on his medical progress.

To top off this past week, lol, I needed to get my body back from all the traveling. That meant multiple visits to the chiropractor. It's also a big week for birthdays around here. Our daughter-in-law celebrated on Thursday, our niece is today, our twins are tomorrow, and one of our kids anniversaries is Wednesday. Phew.
