ON THE BACK BURNER

So far so good. I have managed to exercise two days in a row. I make this public , so that I can be shamed into doing this regularly. When I think of the years that I got up in the dark, and /or snow or rain and ran, I am ashamed. Day after day I ran. And now, I have to shame myself to exercising regularly. It is just so easy to sit and have a second cup of coffee. I usually have my first cup as I am walking Noodle. When I had two dogs, I could never do this. It's really nice to share the early morning wth Noodle and a cup of hot coffee.I fill my cup and Noodle and I are out the door. I have a cup that works really well for drinking, walking, not spilling and not dropping the cup.My finger fits just right into the cup handle. It is a demitasse cup, one of the two I bought years ago when Bob and I were at the Amsterdam airport. That is also my favorite airport. I'd make it a destination, if I had my way. Noodle doesn't seem to notice that I drink and walk. I don't take my cell phone on our walk. I think of this as part of our quality , quiet time. I'd be happy to fix a cup for Noodle if he liked coffee. I have offered him a taste, but he has never even tried it. I have  always thought that sometimes a dog just does need a cuppa.
