taking dog food to the park

i think we're never too old to need our mamas or our nanas. not only because when we're little ones they'll give us a bath, rock us to sleep and sing us our own lullaby but because when we're bigger they'll do the same things for our little ones so we can take much needed long showers. and they'll fold the towels that have been sittingin a pile on the bed for a week without asking. and put them away because they already know where they go. and then they'll sit outside with you when it's all quiet and just breathe with you. and in the morning when you wake up and there are ants in the dog food in the garage they'll pile all the dog food in the toddler wagon and wheel it out to the park trash so you won't have ants and stinky trash. and then sit down and eat chicken salad and crossaints with you while the little one naps. and these are just the reasons from today--or the last twelve hours.

so today i "borrowed" some dog food from our neighbor (who has extra bags ever since her little poodle won dogue vogue last year here at the ranch and gets free bags monthly that her dog won't eat) since it was toooo hot to make a costco trip this afternoon. anyhow, she said, "yeah i saw all this dog food in the trash over in the park. my dog was going crazy, i thought there might be a dead animal or something. turns out it was just a lot of dog food." i confessed. hehe.
