I'm very fortunate to have been paired up with a Secret Santa that has such a wonderful sense of humor and kind heart. I absolutely loved all of my gifts and the creative thinking behind them.

Most of all, thanks for buying my three dachshunds their toys. It was unexpected and very kind. In retrospect, if I had a chance to answer the desert island question again, I would have definitely said I'd take my dogs with me. They mean the world to me, so I really appreciate the gesture.

They normally don't get squeaky toys because two of them spend all of their time attempting to tear into the toy and get to the squeak. With a heavy heart, I must report that the turtle has already been gutted, but the rabbit is holding it together...for now.

My wife's favorite Walking Dead character is Darryl Dixon, so I imagine there'll be a tug of war over those socks. Ditto for those chocolates.

Thanks again for everything. I don't know who you are, but you've made a friend in me! Happy Holidays!
