When my grandma turned 90 (many moons ago, she’s since shuffled off) I remember her whispering to me “I still feel 16”. Always stuck with me. I still feel 9.
My mother used to say she still felt 24 and couldn’t wrap her head around the ‘old lady’ in the mirror. She died at 69 and back then I didn’t completely get what she meant, but boy howdy, now I do. I keep thinking if I’m going to look like I do on the outside, I should be gaining some wisdom on the inside.

But that would be a ‘nope’ - I think I got stuck at about 26! 😛

Same when I put a photo of me and Flicka on here, she appeared to be looking at me adoringly, but it was for want of the tennis ball really 😄
People tell me so often that Carbón looks at me with such adoration and attention, then I point out the treat pouch that I wear near my chest…and they see what is REALLY going on. 🙄😉

We're going to my brother's for Christmas this year and today I started my list of things to take. I seemed to remember stuffing some kongs and leaving them in the freezer last time we were there, so spent him a message asking if I actually had.
He sent a photo back of three frozen ones and a message that read 'three more kings than dogs at the moment ' (predictive text, presumably) So I replied 'King's? Be careful or next thing you'll be singing 'We three kongs'!'
He sent me back this:
'We three kongs of freezerland are
Rock solid hard and too cold by far
Tasting of chickin, great for lickin,
Peaceful dogs we are.
O dog of wonder, dog of light,
Dog with slightly imperfect sight,
Forward leading, still proceeding
Guide us with thy perfect snite (Ancient term for snout.)'

Which made me chuckle and wonder if perhaps he's started on the Christmas booze early!🤣
