Things you learn

Hey all,
Well, the great sell off is underway! I just sold my computer desk this weekend and have been making an effort to go through some of my junk and see what to prune away. It is spring after all...
Life without Speedy is pretty rough but it is getting easier every day. I have learned a few things about myself with out a dog(s).
1. I'm a much sloppier eater than I thought. Without my four legged vacuum cleaner, I find myself pulling out the Hoover more often. Last week, I was making a bacon sandwich and I dropped a small piece on the floor. I went to the living room and ate. When I came back to put my dish in the sink, I heard this "crunch". I looked down and there was pulverized bacon.
Had Speedy been there, that bacon would have been long gone. I never really paid much attention to it but she was always cleaning up after me. Just like Van Gogh, Speedy was unappreciated in her own time.
2. I'm a bit fidgety when sitting on the couch (reading, watching TV, etc). Speedy would always snuggle up with me and in turn, this relaxed me quite a bit.

Well, just a quick post, I'm off, as it is actually warm today and I'm gonna go out and enjoy it.
All the best,
John
