I thought I'd show you a picture of my handsome boy, Buster, in his holiday getup! In September of 2011, Buster was abandoned by some lowlifes who didn't appreciate him and found his way to our house.
Their loss was our gain! The vet guessed him at between one and two years of age when he came to us, so he is now twelve or thirteen. After the recent death of our sixteen-year-old Missy, he is our only dog, and we love him dearly. And, yes, we're spoiling him something awful!
We've had eight dogs and three cats over the years, and too many of them have been abandoned and either made their way to our house or we found them. We considered each and every one of them—and the others we got from rescues—as the best gifts we could ever get.
After animals, the next best gift is books, of course, and this month's newsletter has a good selection from my author friends and me, as well as several book fairs. Happy reading, and if you have a dog, cat, or other loved animal, give them a hug from me!
