Current location.

My happy place.

Goodbye, sweet Vinny. He was such a sweet little guy, and he lived a very full 15 years - from Pennsylvania to California to Georgia. In his younger, healthier days he loves chasing the UPS truck and curling up into a little donut on my lap. He spent his last day here sleeping in his favorite sunny spot in the house, and laying out in the grass, surrounded by love and snuggles.

Scene from a lap. #hellokitty
