If you follow my YouTube channel, you know I try to post two videos every week, but in the last few weeks, I’ve been lax. That’s primarily because of this little girl.

Her name is Izzy, a cream colored Golden Retriever, she’s a joy and a real handful. We got her when she was eight weeks old, and she’s three months old now. She gets into everything and creates havoc wherever she goes. She’s kept our other two dogs exhausted and at times, trying to find places they can hide from her.

I made a video of her and it was really cute, but somehow between me writing notes about it for my editor-in-chief, Rich, and handing the notes to him, the video and notes, disappeared. We’ve spent a week looking for them, and you’d think after not finding it within a day or two, I would have made a new video, but no, we just kept looking. That’s why it’s been almost two weeks between videos, I’m ashamed to say. I promise I won’t let it happen again, but seriously, you know I can’t be help accountable to my promise, haha….

Since I didn’t post a video, one of my viewers contacted me because she was sure something had to be wrong. I never imagined, when starting a YouTube channel so many years ago, that anyone would be concerned if I didn’t post a video. In fact, when we got to fifty subscribers, we couldn’t believe our good fortune. And in the last month, we hit a milestone, 20,000 subscribers…Who would have ever imagined that many people being interested in anything I have to say? It’s an honor and a privilege to make these videos for all of you, and Rich and I never take that for granted. I’m going to do a nice giveaway for hitting 20,000 subscribers, and that video should be up shortly. And by shortly, I mean three or four day (or a week) from now.

Thanks for hanging in there with us and for being so wonderful. We never expected YouTube viewers to treat us so kindly. Oh, and here’s one more Izzy photo for the road.
