My poor fattybear has injured herself the other day 😦 She had trouble walking, laying down, and was not her usual happy self. We took her to the vet yesterday and he said she hurt her back. He prescribed her medications and will need to do a recheck in a few weeks. He said she SHOULD be fine and does not think she injured a disk. She is doing a little better today after some medication so I pray she is going the right direction. I decided to dedicate this post just to fatty! She is such an amazing dog, no wait I consider her as my daughter since I raised her since she was a wee baby. Always been there for me, my ups and my downs and is ALWAYS happy and forgiving even when I yell at her. She is my perfect fattybear.
Selfie picture with Nala! She loves posing!
Always lays in the strangest positions.
Just so in love with her! Can’t explain our bond.
Wearing “headphones”!! 🙂
Up close and personal!
And lastly…a huge MERCI to my boyfriend. He has come a long way from hating dogs and rejecting the idea of Nala moving to NYC with me to accepting her with open arms and loving her as much as he can. It’s amazing to see how their relationship has blossomed as ours did too ❤
Love really does conquer all 🙂
Happy Fourth of July everyone! Until next time!

It’s almost July already? Summer you are flying by so quick!
Nala and I are enjoying our time in the sun as you can see from the picture below.
Aside from the usual – looking for a new job and taking care of my furritos, I have been trying to travel. Went back to Chicago to visit my family over Father’s Day weekend. It was good times with the family and close friends. Chicago is one of the best cities to visit in the summer time. I promise you will have an amazing time!
Chilling like a villain in Chicago 🙂
YUMM you must try “Smoque BBQ” in Chicago! Just amazing.
My favorite Indian place in the city. CUMIN.
Chicago has the best Korean food, almost as good as LA and definitely better than NYC & Beantown.
Hot Doug’s! The line here is crazy! They even have foie gras hotdog but we didn’t get that. Best hotdogs ever.
XOCO! One of Rick Bayless’s restaurant. He has Frontera Grill in O’Hare Airport and we tried it on our way back to Beantown. Rick Bayless just took airport food to the next level!
@ Little Goat. One of Top Chef’s winner’s (Stephanie Izzard) second restaurant she opened in Chicago. Great atmosphere and food.
Those were a few of my highlights during the trip. SO much food and so little time and not enough space in my stomach 🙂
And lastly….GO BLACKHAWKS! Not a huge hockey fan but will always have LOVE for Chicago. Good luck tonight! Beat the Boston Bruins! #ChicagoLOVE ❤
Hopefully my next post, I will have some GREAT news for you 😉
Until then… Stay cool!
Love,
It’s been awhile! Life sure does like to throw shit at me (and I’m sure everyone else). Feels so good to be typing away 🙂 Been busy with looking for a new job, taking care of my babyboo, taking care of MYSELF, and loving the boyfriend as best as I can.
I went in for a biopsy on Monday and had a vasovagal reaction – where you sweat like a pig, shake, vomit, and faint. Luckily the boyfriend took time off of work to be there with me which I am very thankful for. It was really scary and even though I tried to be tough and not cry, I wanted to bawl like a baby. Not only this but I had a “stress” reaction from the procedure and my face broke out in chicken pox like bumps. I realized as I get older, my body seems to be expressing itself more. Why must you do this to me my dear body?!
On a happier note…
Nalabear got her summer do 🙂 She has also lost 3lbs! I found out recently she is an excellent running partner. LOVES running with me so I bought a hands free running leash.
Summer days = being sleepy and soaking in the beautiful sun. Such a hard life 😛
Last weekend we decided to do a road trip to Vermont. WHO KNEW I WAS SUCH A COUNTRY GIRL? Cheese and farm animals galore.

One of the best Bloody Mary’s I had at the Prohibition Pig!

That sums up my trip to Vermont. Just a lot of eating and petting cute animals. My two favorite things to do! In addition, my bff visited from Chitown a few weeks ago.

Memorial Day weekend is coming up! The bf and I are planning on going to Cape Cod for a day trip. I just want to have a relaxing weekend and hopefully these stress spots on my face will go away. Weather in Boston has been pretty POOP this week. Sometimes it makes me so depressed.
Beautiful hydrangeas to brighten up a gloomy day.
Everyone always has a bad day but it’ll pass ❤ It’ll always get better and there’s always an answer to every problem. You just haven’t figured it out yet 🙂
Till next time my loves,
