Back.... but not myself.

Hi everyone. I am back. Sorry, I was MIA for a while. After the holidays, I was focused on getting the new house totally unpacked.... and I began volunteering at a preschool a couple of days a week. So far, I am loving it.But, those of you who know me well... know that when I type in red, it's not good. So, here's the deal. I have a very heavy heart tonight... heavy with worry. I have a friend that is really sick... and then, just tonight, realized that something is really wrong with our dog, Lucy. ( I have pics posted of her.) She has hip displaysia, and is barley moving tonight. She's been doing fine, so I don't know why she's acting like this. If she's not better in the morning, we'll have to take her to the vet. We lost our cat, Buff last April, and I'm not ready to lose Lucy too.
