No not the dogs, silly! The Smart car...and it was a little bit of a sad day. I said goodbye to the Smart and sent her in as a trade-in for a Ford CMax Sel...a hybrid wagon. I love the wagon and it has plenty of room from my dogs, grandkids and gets 45/37 mpg! WhooHoo! Road trips here we come!
Secondly, I'm leaving a career I've loved (teaching college graphic design) to get back into the fray of freelancing. Exciting, just a little scary, but so looking forward to working in the real world. Not that academia isn't real...but for me...it was time to move on and hereeeeee I go!
AND I said good-bye to meat and dairy! I would have NEVER thought I'd become a vegan...I always loved meat, cheese and all the fixings but felt I needed to make a major change in my diet for my health. Now, 15 pounds lighter, lowered blood pressure without meds, and fitting into a size 5 again, life is good :)
Can't wait to see what the rest of the year holds...it's been a great start.
