So here we are ? already in 2008!  Does it seem like life speeds up with every passing year? I hope you enjoyed your holidays and are gearing up for a happy, healthy, and joyous new year. 

The year end was sad for us as we lost our first dog, Lusha, to a complete kidney failure.  She had a congenital kidney disorder that was diagnosed when she was 2.  Despite a poor prognosis, she managed to make it to 5 on a special diet.  We appreciate the time we had with her as she was a very special dog, a tough cookie, and the best escapist artist I had known ? no gate could keep her fenced in.  We all miss her.  We are now a one-dog family. 

Now it is time to come up with a game plan for 2008.  Do you have one already?
