Those of you who have known me for a while might remember that this is the time of year that I kind of disappear from deviantArt. Work takes over and rules my life until the fall. I try to take photos when I have the chance, but rarely do I have the time to post much or go through friends’ submissions in any detail. I miss being here. As for going to the dogs, two dogs have decided to adopt us and allow us to be their caregivers. You will meet them in the next few days.

Many people have noticed that I carpet bombed them with :+fav:'s Once again, that is a result of the new stack system. There are a few of you left, so be ready for :+favlove: like a rash.
