Ah, Saturday!

Thank you Einstein for discovering that time is relative.  This past week was much longer than 7 days.  It seemed like the whole month of May was compressed into a few days.  Are we glad it's the weekend.

Next week will be June.  Maybe sometime this next month spring will linger in the Puget Sound, and maybe before September we'll get summer.  I admit, this cool weather beats the August heat and humidity of New York, though.

Every day I am grateful for the "girls," but this week they earned their allowance.  Stress reducers.  The kisses, the nuzzles, the comedy (that is Sage as Lucille Ball), the long walks in the woods.  Thank you girls.

Murphy keeps on keeping on.  Somedays she seems wobbly, slipping on her walks, and on other days I swear she is still 5 or 6.  Hard to believe she is 14 1/2 in a few days.  While I might have doubted it a month or two ago, I do think Murph has a longer view of her world, and we'll be together for awhile.  She must have important things to accomplish, like that toast eating contest to win!

We're glad it's the weekend.  Bring on the lounge chairs and sleeping in!

Murphy's day.
