Lost an old friend today...

 

 

 

Gracie, our old dog of 15 years has left us for greener pastures to run and jump in. She was barely able to move anymore and she had been a runner and a a swimmer in her salad days.
Grace was my husband's best friend. Always by his side at camp since retirement. In his truck at work waiting for Papa in air conditioned comfort on the state highway.
Someday when it does not make me cry I will tell the life story of this amazing dog.

After the storm on the porch...

I just finished reading ARC copy of Wellesley Wives by Suzy Duffy. I enjoyed this romantic comedy so much. I loved that Popsy Power was 50 and her best friend Sandra was 45. Popsey even has a grandchild! The story gives us an insider view of glamour and wealth and the results  an economic downturn can have on  this life. Popsy and Sandra  stand by each other through all the trials life throws at them. Pain and loss do not weaken the strong friendship these women share.
