Did She Roll in the Dead ‘Possum Too?

Yes, I gave my dog her bath (bi-weekly) yesterday and she usually needs to go out right after.

Here she is on the leash, playing ball with other dogs (OK I let her off the leash first-time here, won’t tell Animal Control where we live/walk) and all of a sudden this wet dog mess turns on her back and rubs into something.

And another owner says, did she roll in the dead ‘possum, too? I got her out of there asap and on leash and sniffed her and she was fine. Maybe it was just seeing grass for the first time in a couple of months.

Maybe I’m seeing the grass after a few years of laundry, cooking, dog walking and bathing every two weeks. Yes, I have a blog and 50,000 hits doesn’t mean I write badly.

I told someone today that in college it took hours to write a 500 word essay. I had a typewriter back then and was the envy of the dorms. I’ve kept it with us all these years, a first edition 1957 Smith-Corona electric portable that was given to me for high school graduation by my English teacher Aunt.

It’s in its original case in air-conditioned storage 1,500 miles away and I was looking to showcase it. I looked on E-Bay and it goes for $5. This one is priceless and will move across the country with me no matter how many times we traverse it. Perhaps even around the world.

There are many opportunities in this world, whether it be writing a blog or preserving a typewriter or rolling in the grass. Let’s explore them. Dee
