3. The contented smile on my sweet ole girly dog as I plan for her 14th birthday celebration Sunday at the Dog Park...

I have had chicken breasts and beef filets vacuum-sealed and frozen in the back of the freezer for what is becoming TOO long so I'm going to thaw them, dice them, and char-cook them up in my Wok for each of her favorite buddies that join us every morning at 5 AM. Then I'll have little bags of some healthy dog biscuit treats as well. A birthday banner and some rubbery balls that light up in different colors...

She's not going to tolerate much more than a cute birthday girl scarf, but I'll have some little hats for the other dogs. And hopefully, some photos when the sun comes up.

14 years old, but still walking our 3 miles or so pre-dawn despite her (and my) joint pain... I know it is treasure-every-moment-time, so that still brings a smile.
