This was a big day but I didn’t intend to be so. Over 7,500 steps and nearly 4 miles.
This is how it started out. I took Ripple for her first walk with me in the neighborhood. She was phenomenal and interested in every single squirrel she saw but still behaved on the leash. I was impressed. When we got back I then sat on the floor to pick out socks to bring this next week in vacation. Yup, sat on the floor. First time in many many months. Then it was....how do I get up? So I cleared my mind and just stood up. Next step was going out to dinner at a local place that has some outdoor seating and they let you bring your dog(s). That was a great meal with just a few margaritas. Last stop was my local Apple store, where I had worked for 4 years part time and it was so much fun. I ran into several people I was so glad to see again. Lots of hugs and admiration of my two whippets.
Now we’re home, dogs are fed, and I’m going to pull out an ice pack, just in case.
