Pets, pretties, and ponderings
Well, actually we got our dog, Jasper, a puppy, lol. Jasper is our mini poodle mix, and he's a rambunctious little one year old.

Or in my case: Masking - the pain! So, a few weeks ago, I purchased some fabric masks on Etsy. The masks I purchased were Ready To Ship, but the next day, the seller posted some masks that had filters, which the first ones I bought did not.
