Word of the Day

Liver: A person who lives on and on.

Home again, home again, jiggidy, jog. I went outside this morning to get our newspaper and there was someone jogging down our street. Such dedication. I really need to start on some sort of exercise regime. Maybe on Monday. Right now I've got a book screaming at me from my bedside, demanding to be read. I've already read two of the books that I bought in Vegas. I'm trying my hardest to savor them but it's really difficult when they scream at you like this.

My parents trained my dogs while they looked after them in Vegas. I was actually able to sleep until 8 AM this morning. Wow! Amazing. My folks told me that my dogs were jet-lagged. The dogs demanded to get up at 5 AM that first day when they visited my folks. I didn't think about my habit of getting up a 6 AM and the time difference between Phoenix and Vegas when I dropped the dogs off for their "visit". No dogs allowed at the casino. Sorry Mom and Dad. Next time I'll put them in training for a couple of weeks before we come to visit. It's just so hard for me to sleep so long. Maybe I need to stay up later. Read a few good books. That might work.
