Musings of an old man

Musing [Dictionary.com]:Contemplation; meditation. A product of contemplation; a thought. “an elegant tapestry of quotations, musings, aphorisms, and autobiographical reflections” (James Atlas). I probably won't be elegant and I don't know what "aphorisms" means but I do have a lot to say after 64 years. With each post, I travel around the internet "lifting" images to appear with my posts. If you find an image you don't think I should use please email me and I will immediately remove it.

Molly

How can you not love a face like this...

This is Molly, a 10 week old, minature, red daple daschund that my wife just purchased for us. My wife didn't think our lives were complicated enough so she went out and bought a new dog. My daughter must share the blame because she went out and found the dog for her and then called me on the phone, reporting her find, hoping against hope that I would be excited. When I wasn't they just ignored my "lack of excitment" and turned it into a positve response from me and thereby getting my "stamp of approval" on their project. A Dachund I, reportedly, said it was OK to buy, was our new family pet. We had two before and they were truly great pets but we didn't need another pet. I'm old and have enough to do without another pet in the house and now we have three.
