Emily D





Today is December 10 and it's the birthday of Emily Dickinson.  Emily was an American poet who lived from 1830- 1886. She wrote LOTS of poems while she was alive, but it wasn't until AFTER she died that many of her works became well known.  She reportedly owned one dog during her life - a Newfoundland named Carlo. Carlo lived to the ripe age of 16 and although Dickinson was considered by some as reclusive, Carlo was her constant companion.  Allow me to share two of Emily's quotes having to do with dogs...






Two weeks from today will be Christmas eve.  My human has LOTS to do before then - although she  is feeling pretty good since the Christmas decorating explosion is over.  She has taken a number of antler photos with us - but the final elusive Christmas shot of all three of us remains to be taken.  Heaven help us.

Time to go and work on my letter for Santa Paws.

Have a good one.  Peace and paws up!
