You never know how attached you become to a pet until you lose them.

R.I.P. Yuki

born the runt of the litter...
came to us with everything but mange...
grew to be the largest of the 4 surviving puppies...
and was the sweetest Rottweiler you'd ever meet...
though at times she was the epitome of the word "bitch"...
we loved her well and know that she's in a much better place now...
and as long as I can picture her in my mind, she'll still be there...
butt wagging with a big doggie grin on her face as her greeting of welcome home

Have you ever had a moment where you're looking at something you've done in the past and gone, "Oh holy crap, that's actually pretty good!"

Yeah, I did that a few minutes ago while looking at this:


It kinda blew my mind away! I NEVER like anything I've created!

So snowboarding/skiing season started early up here in MI... I've been out 4 times since Thanksgiving... hence the reason for the lack of activity on my account.

Between work, kickboxing, snowboarding, beer league racing (more snowboarding), and spending time with the new BF/SO, I don't have much time or energy to do much else on my down time than sleep and just vegge out.
Hell, even food consumption and chores have fallen by the wayside!
It's going to take at least a month for me to equalize things... hopefully by then I'll have time to pick up my sketch pad and have at it!

I'll try to do something the few days we'll be at Holiday Valley in NY next month... just don't hold your breath! (I'd feel guilty if someone died of suffocation because of me!)
