Hazel chewed on a library book that I left on my night stand. Since she has literary tastes, I felt it only proper for her to represent me in this forum. When I took this picture, I should have placed that book under her paw.

My dog did that to a book I left on the bed while I was gone. It was shreds all over the house. The dogs name is Susie but I gave her more colorful names, too colorful to put on here.

Knowing how these things go, I'll bet you were almost to the end when she decided to see just what was so special about that book.

Fall :D

What is grief, if not love persevering?

Grief is just love with no place to go.

Mine has books already in it. I like that my avatar has multiple books because I usually read more than one book at a time. I love flowers, the color blue, and being outside, too, so it fits perfect with my personality :)
