Good morning and Merry Christmas. I just finished walking the dogs. It's 7:10 in the morning here and still a little dark. There's a chill and a breeze out but not too bad. No snow. Mattie is tuckered out (in fact she's on her side on the floor right now) and Bear is really feeling the Holiday spirit. She's playing with the mat in front of the fireplace as I type this, and has been turning in her "scratch my ears forever and let me nuzzle up against you with my nose" coupon. They both had their Christmas breakfast, with several treats, and I'll be heading out for the morning in about forty-five minutes. All is peaceful in this doggie world.
