There's a new man in my life. (Thank goodness.) His name is Phil, and his company is Pawderosa. 

Not that I'm trading in my husband after 28 years of wedded bliss (okay, not always bliss, but always laughs), it's just that with the addition of our new puppy, it was definitely time to bring in a professional dog trainer.

"Congratulations on your new career," my follow-up email said to my good friend, Heidi, "It's the perfect fit!"

After years of staying at home and seeing her first two kids successfully on to higher education, Heidi returned to school herself and earned her credentials in order to help others navigate the anxiety-filled college journey as well. (Where was she when I needed her?) We had serendipitously run into each other up at Village Market and she proudly flashed her new business card, along  with her beautiful smile. (Both made my day.)
