It's been a week and I am grateful. Grateful to have found my place in this big city and surrounding myself with animal heroes.  I first want to express my profound gratitude to the team that tirelessly spreads love and helps so many animals in NYC - Social Tees.  They are a a not-for-profit, strictly no-kill 501c3 organization in the East Village of NYC that takes abandoned animals from kill shelters and provides them with safe haven and veterinary care before placing them in proper forever homes.
