A Dog's Life
I envy my pets. I am going nuts with 10 things on my plate at once and it never fails. I walk up on one (or all ) of them sleeping peacefully. Not a care in the world except maybe the question of who will pet them. I am worried about the business, the kids, the bills and my animals just worry about getting petted.
It makes me wonder - how do I take a page from their book? Could I, even if I wanted to? How do I slow down when my life and everything in it, won't?
I have a teenage daughter. So drama comes with the territory. I just sent my oldest off to college last month, so I worry on a daily basis since I can't see him and know where he is any more. My youngest wants to be the next Babe Ruth, but I forgot to sign him up for baseball. I own my own business with my husband, so stress is normal. That is just the basics. Add on getting the kids to and from school and sports activities, client issues, dealing with thieves in business, maintaining a marriage/working relationship and is it any wonder I feel the need to slow down?
I want my dog's life. I want to be able to just take a nap when I want to. I want someone else to provide my food, shelter and love on me while I just lay there without a care in the world. Somehow, I just don't think I am going to get my wish. So I cannot have my dog's life. How can I enjoy the life I have?
That is what I want to find out. Join me.
