Old Age Day by Day April 27, 2013

My husband, our younger daughter and I had a beautiful walk yesterday.  Wildflowers were everywhere.  It was a long hike, and we ate our lunch in the grasses, and rarely encountered anyone else.  The dogs were in heaven.  We were all exhausted at the end, but happy.  And I felt a pang occasionally of how old the dogs are getting, and how I want to treasure these times while they can still run around and bounce for the joy of it.  They met a few other dogs and our female talked her head off to them, eager to tell them what we were doing.  Dogs know how to appreciate. 

Today I have my study group and I look forward to that.  These friends and my teacher have known each other for over twenty years.  We're close, and our goal is the same.  That creates a comfortable atmosphere and a sense of coming home.
