It's a hard life being a dog!

Today I did something I haven't done in all my fifty years!  I walked a dog! 

hmm wonder what I can sniff over here!

 Actually, I think the dog walked me.  I only took it around my block. But, we stopped at least nine times, and six of those were for marking purposes!

Or here

or even over here!

Dogs certainly are territorial!  This one is especially cute!  It sounds like a Seal.  When my neighbors arrive home, we get the "Seal" welcome.  I wasn't sure the dog would do this for me, but I was also greeted with a loud "Arr,  Arr......"

The dog's name is Tucker. 

Let me roll around and play for a bit!

 I'm not even sure if it's a boy or girl. I forgot to look. I have no idea what kind of dog it is.  But, none of that matters.  Within minutes you become a dog lover!

I'm ready for my closeup!

The dog days of summer!

A positive affirmation at a steal of a price!

Today while walking home from Erik's Deli with a "Natural High" in my tummy, I came upon a discount store called "Junk Drawer."  With time on my hands I decided to check it out. There was a rack outside the door with a $2.00 sign.  I found a jacket, with no size, but a saying that caught my eye; "I like my life."

I went inside the store, checked out the goodies which the store manager told me were mostly from estate sales, and then decided to buy the positive affirmation. It was only going to be $2.00, so I thought, "why not?"

When he rang me up he only charged me $1.09. Even better!

So I came on home, tried on the jacket and decided I didn't like the fit. But, I couldn't put the saying away.  I decided to give new life to an old jacket. I cut out the portion that had the saying and put if over a trivet.  I now have a new decoration in my kitchen window that I can look at every time I wash dishes.

After all, when you are in the middle of a chore is the perfect time to say, "I like my life!"



Today was a good day! I got some exercise, ate my favorite sandwich, and got a positive message.

I like my life!
