Have you ever wished you could carry an emergency supply of sunshine in your pocket? You know, just enough to brighten the day when the clouds come? Or, carry some happiness left over from another time, to overcome any wayward feelings of sadness?
This morning is a bright, sunshiny day. A little frost whitens roofs and the water in the bird baths was frozen. I say was frozen, because I went out and replenished them with liquid water and put more sunflower seeds in the bird feeders.
Nemo loves to be out in the yard with me. He runs around, looking up in the trees for squirrels, sort of like a puppy does. He remembered, though, that he shouldn’t bark–not this early in the morning when neighbors and their dogs are presumably sleeping.
Nemo is wearing a soft, inflatable ring around his neck. My poor pup is afflicted with dermatitis. His special doctor is treating him with meds and spray and gave him a hard, plastic cone to wear to keep him from scratching and licking. That is fine, but the cone limits his vision and makes it hard for him to eat or drink. This inflatable ring is much better–softer and smaller and he can eat and drink with ease. Plus, it keeps him from scratching.
Whatever your day holds, I hope it has many bright spots and, if it does, put a little of that sunshine in your pocket, just in case you encounter any cloudy days ahead.
