How are you feeling as we steamroll into the holidays, the end of the year, and all it means on so many levels?

Today I am grateful I woke up. I am grateful I am breathing. I am grateful the weather is so warm I can step outside without a coat and look at the last of the night sky. I am grateful for my hard working team at Aspen Park Vet Hospital.

And I am grateful for dogs, and horses, and cats, and fish. Oh especially the fish. If only I could show you how cute they are and how much joy they can bring once you build a relationship with them!

I am grateful for all of the people who donated for Colorado Gives Day. https://www.coloradogives.org/organization/Resqranch We received more donations than we ever have, nearly enough to buy that semi load of hay. Oh my gosh, I am grateful you cannot even imagine. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
​So who is the person that you want to be today? It can be however you like. You get to control the narrative. You can go to work (or not), be on time (or not), get annoyed at someone else (or blow them off with a chuckle and smile to yourself because you know better), decisions like these are what we all make hundreds of times a day. And that my friend, is a beautiful thing, because the choices are all yours. So go out there and make today the best day of your life, now that you know that is in your power to actually do! And don’t forget to show some compassion today, you Animal Loving Angel, thanks for being here.
