If there is anything I’ve learned from our dogs is growing up and maturing can make a big difference for both of us. Why just today Zappa went on the job with my husband and was tied up and didn’t bark his mouth off all day long. He was great! What a difference a year makes and what a lesson to learn.

Thanks for the reminder – Kuna thanks you, too. ;0)

I agree that dogs bring out the kid in us. 🙂

And just imagine what you’ll know at 48 that will make you wonder what you were thinking at 24! 🙂

Also having dogs helps you stay young mentally and have fun.

A couple of my best friends have just turned 70 and they are both an inspiration to me:)

I’m still not very good at impulse control myself, how can I expect my kids to be, lol.

I don’t know everything or have all the answers, and never will! I’m glad I realized this at 24 rather than who knows when.

One of my friends in her 70s has gotten so past all these discussions. Now she just says, “I’m old. I can do what I want.”

I guess one of the benefits of getting older is having lots of puppies over the years to learn from.

Does anyone really know if they get there?

Let’s hope you never grow up. I suspect if you did, your blog wouldn’t be half as much fun. 🙂

I miss the old hood. I’ve recently realized about myself that I need to live somewhere that’s just a little bit dangerous. Not Sarajevo in the 1990s dangerous. Just a little edgy.

My current town is really safe as far as crime goes. But we are surrounded by jagged gorges which see several deaths each year.

My next home will feature another kind of peril to face. I’m still trying to figure out what in the world this all means. Oh well, future blog fodder I guess.

We really don’t know what we don’t know, do we?
