Let me start out by saying that it's been a rough couple of weeks. I live in east central Florida, and although thank God hurricane Matthew wobbled at the very last minute, we were still affected by it. For those of you who don't know, I run an animal rescue organization and volunteer with another one. I had to evacuate from my home because I live beachside. Luckily the organization that I volunteer with let me and ALL of my pets and rescues go to their building where they house some of their rescue cats. That meant moving 19 cats, 4 dogs, and myself out of harms way....24 of us in all. We did have some damage to my property, but we are all safe and that is the only thing that matters to me. I wanted to share where me and one other volunteer spent hurricane Matthew caring for 83 cats and 4 dogs. They kept us very busy so we didn't really have time to get too stressed out. Luckily the windows were all boarded up so so we didn't have to see or hear much of the hurricane as it passed through. In the 72 hours that I spent there I only got 8 hours of sleep. That's probably why I'm sick now. lol That was the serious stuff, now onto the good stuff.



Yesterday I received a box jam packed full of all kinds of goodies for myself and my pets! I am so touched by /u/HappyLittleFarm and their generosity so I actually made me first RedditGifts video! You can check it out here. I apologize that the video is sideways. I turned my phone and I thought the video would still show up right side up, but apparently not. I guess I should have used my camera instead. In the video I said that I had to evacuate 24 pets, but what I meant to say is that counting me and my pets and rescues there was 24 of us in total who had to evacuate. Anyway, I can't thank my Santa enough for all of the thoughtful gifts. I truly appreciate you sending things for my fur babies. They've had a stressful couple of weeks too; but you made it better for all of us. The fact that you made my fur babies happy is what I'm most grateful for! You're the absolute best Santa ever!!!



Without further ado check out all of the amazing gifts that me and the fur babies received!!
