What I did on my Christmas Break

Yeah, well… you need to add “Took over 10thDoM” to that friggin’ list… and then friggin’ do it.
and I forgot to add “Quit my second job.”
Sounds like you had some good points and some low points but overall was it a nice break?
Sounds like you had a full and fun time!
I’m so glad you got to see your grandparents and BFF. Most important. I think you should add to your brood. I think Lucky would love a fellow doggy buddy to hang out with while you’re at school teaching.
If you did get a second dog what breed would you get? I’m sure you’d probably get a sweet pound dog. Those always turn out to be the best dogs.
