I could start this off with saying, jet lag got me. I was shattered from the various time zones. I had been out all day. But no, that would be too simple an excuse. Ted has decided to start 2013 … Continue reading →

Ted has some rules to follow, here he is breaking two at the same time. Paws on the table and stealing my latte. Not a good idea in both cases! Course he would like me to believe, he was just … Continue reading →
