A Fashion, Lifestyle, Mom, and Anti Scam Blog

An announcement and a Linkup

Dress:  Target (old) // Shoes:  Famous Footwear (old)

Alright y’all, so the announcement I have isn’t about me, but it’s about my mom!

As some of you know if you’ve been here for a while, we had a family dog who was a maltese named Kuba.  He turned 14 years old, and two weeks later, last July he had passed away.  He had been struggling with his health for about a month.  My mom had taken him to the vet so many times, until she came to terms with the fact that it was his time.  He passed away peacefully and my mom had been heartbroken ever since.  I think it also didn’t help that my grandparents had passed away just two months prior within two weeks of each other.  When they say bad things come in threes, they are not lying.

My mom took all 3 of these deaths very hard, and unfortunately, since I’m in Florida I couldn’t even be there with her every single day to try and cheer her up.  About a week or so ago, a woman had talked about how she needed to find a home for two maltese dogs.  They were a bonded pair named Chloe and Jack.  A lot of people had said that they would take one without the other, however my mom didn’t want to see them separated so she immediately said she would take both of them.  So, with that being said, my mom has welcomed two maltese dogs into her and my dad’s home.  They have been keeping her busy which is one of the reasons she’s been so absent on social media and her blog.  That, and because of COVID, it’s been hard for her to be able to get herself dolled up to be able to take pictures as much as she was before.

Here is a picture of Chloe and Jack, and the linkup is below!

      My mom still isn’t over him, but I think it’s because when both of us kids left the house, that was almost like her child.

    Monica, first of all, your dress is freaking fabulous! I love the choker style. So cute. Second, I totally thought you were going to tell us that your parents were moving to Florida! But these pups are a wonderful announcement as well. How cute they are and what a great addition to the family!

    Your poor mom..I lost my dad on Christmas Eve and my mom 4 years prior- I can’t imagine losing both 2 weeks apart. And then the dog too?! I’m really really happy for her that these two maltese will help ease the pain and fill her house again with some joy.

    So sorry for your loss. Your Mom has been through a lot. There is something about bringing a new pet (or in this case – two) that really does uplift you. So grateful for fur-babies. Thanks for sharing.

    I am glad that your mom found her comfort in the face of these two lovely dogs, I am sure she will enjoy their company for many years to come.
