the wandering houstonian

Hiya!! This past weekend, Jake and I dog sat for my coworker’s 6 month old goldendoodle puppy named Tumi. This dog is a walking breathing teddy bear, and he has the bounciness of Tigger from Winnie the Pooh. He was an absolute treat to have […]

I have not written in over 2 months, and I am elated to be writing a new post! Updates on my end: I have finished the traditional “busy season” of year-end audit work. I also finished my six-month job rotation and am back on my […]

I am back in Connecticut, and it is cold here! A snow storm hit this past Tuesday – there’s still some of the remnants of the snow left today. Tonight, another winter storm is supposed to hit, so I think I will be spending a […]
