I don’t know what to post. I decided to put some cuteness on my insta feed. This is my precious, hyper, and snuggle boxer. His name is Boss. If he sits on you that’s a good thing. I’m giving him extra kisses and hugs the last few days.

It’s heartbreaking now. 💔 Southern California is my hometown. I was born in Los Angeles. I’ve donated to

I’m blessed that my family and I are safe. Thank you to all of the first responders and firefighters keeping us safe. We have no power now. My kids have no school today. I’m keeping strong for my family at these difficult times.

I wanted to let my clients know that I’m here for you if you just need someone to talk to. You’re not alone. Big virtually hugs! Even though, I don’t have power, or have limited internet/cell phone service. I’m still here for you. There might be a delay on responses, but the best way to reach is by phone. I’ll get back to you as soon as I can.

Stay safe 🙏🫶
