Almost A Year

Today, as I sit at my computer to write a quick post, I find that a few things are going through my mind.  First off, today is the first day of school for most of MD.  I'm missing that, since my kids are now all grown and out of the house.  I really miss doing the back-to-school shopping.  I know, it's a geeky thing, but, truly, I loved that!  There's just something about new folders, clean sheets of paper, brand new spiral notebooks, pens, pencils, and the rest of the trappings.  Maybe I should just go out and pick up a couple of things, it might make the longing fade a bit.

Another thing on my mind today, is my furry baby, Liberty Ann (Libby).  She's going to be 9 in a couple of weeks, and her last vet visit proved that she's aging.  She's now termed a senior citizen, and fortunately, SHE doesn't know that.  She's been limping on a rear leg for a few months, as of now, it seems to be ok, and the doc has given her a pain med, to use as she needs it.  She still runs after her stick as though she was a puppy.  All of her blood work came back normal, and she's back on her heartworm medication.  She'll get her boosters for Lyme and whatever else she needs soon, as she had had a tummy issue a couple of weeks ago.

GB and I have been in the house in Frederick for almost a year.  A lot has happened in that year.  It's interesting to look back and see where we've been, and then to look forward and watch where we're going.  The house has held a lot of company in the past 11 months, and we plan on continuing to fill it up as often as possible.  He and I are going strong, and for those who keep asking: we're not getting married any time soon.  We're not even discussing it.  We're very happy with our relationship at this point, and don't see any need to change that.

Hope that my readers are doing as well as we are.  I've missed writing here.
