I am so sorry about Annie and the diabetes but if there was ever a dog that was going to get great care, it's Annie. I know you and Bruce will do everything you can for her and she'll be fine! The North Pole was good but Santa wasn't there. He was on vacation!lol I think I'm a couple weeks late coming this year because it was only beautiful with the orange/yellow trees for about a day. I haven't seen the Northern Lights this year either which are fabulous! I hope Mom and Dad are doing ok. I will check on them as soon as I'm home. Love to all, Judy
