Saturday Musings

Just a few random, pre-coffee thoughts to get the ball rolling today.

And then I have to get ready to go to a wedding and host a chat with Frances Moore Lappe.  Life is good.

-- Listening to my daughter sit with her westie puppy, and explain who people are in her kindergarten photo album makes me smile.  Especially because, in her mind anyway, it was all so long ago.  For me?  It's just the blink of an eye.  Perspective.

-- Our dachshund has an upset, gurgly tummy this morning.  I'm hoping we have not ruined the dog-sitter's day with this.  Getting old, even for spoiled, beloved dachshunds, is not for sissies.

-- Brewing coffee smells like heaven.  Is it done yet?  Why do I think that every minute and a half?  If I worked at Starbucks, I'd be in a perpetual aroma coma.


-- Mr. ReddHedd is awesome, because he just brought me coffee.

-- The last two entries are more amusing if you read them in a Dug voice -- the dog from Up.  Even more so if you add in the word "squirrel" here and there.

-- Filling my bird feeders and watching the little, winged beauties fly in and out to eat gives me a lot of joy.  When pigeons show up?  Not so much.

What's up with your day?
