@becsbuddy, Becky and other walking/cizers friends I think it is alas time for me to make a voluntary confession. While I am quite sure most of you are not contending with this dilemma and heaven only knows, that a walk every single day is great therapy, I now sometimes have to check my computer first thing each morning to check the date and then check the nearby paper calendar to "verify" which day of the week it is. Now granted I am older but still, I want to be sure to fulfill my goal of at least walking the 3 designated days/week I set back in January. Additional walks are fine and I can give myself bonus points for those but I really do hope to maintain the three specific days for the remainder of the year.

This morning, started out at 6:30am and was quite surprised to encounter a fellow walking his two adorable bassethounds. It was all I could do to restrain myself from walking up to the threesome for a pet and cuddle with the bassets. That was my first time seeing the early walker and his 2 four leggers but it added such unexpected happiness to the start of my morning. My Happy Leigh and I shared 16 yrs together before she crossed the rainbow bridge and for the rest of this morning's outing, I pondered the wonderful years, times and antics of my many beloved pets. Pets add a dimension and flavor to our lives that humans cannot touch, yes?
