Inspire Me Monday #202 – Week Of November 15, 2015

I like the idea of Inspiration Monday.
Monday’s often get the short end of the stick
But they are fraught with potential!
Judy Palmer

The book looks wonderful. We adopted our dog from a senior dog rescue, and she was about 4 years old. Many of the dogs that were being adopted were much older, though, and it was wonderful to see them get another chance in their senior years!
