I Cannot Believe January Is Gone

Had to take Hiker over to the Vet Clinic to get her “ever-six-month” Rattlesnake Booster Vaccination. I love this clinic. They open at 9 am, but they always open a little earlier, so I get in and out of their quickly. We were the only patients there this morning. We were actually back in the car and heading for home before 9 am. As usual, Hiker was a very good girl when they gave her the shot. I brought her back home and then I headed over to Wal-Mart. It was another beautiful sunny day here again today. I know I am always bragging about how smart my Hiker Girl is. Well I am going to do it again (LOL). Once again I told her that I'd take her for a walk after lunch and after my “soap” was over. I don't know how she knows, but the minute the closing music comes on for “The Young & The Restless”, Hiker comes to me and starts pawing at me and kissing me. Took her out for a 2.5 mile walk. I've been trying to make my walks longer than what I was walking before. My legs are sore from walking in the sand in the dry riverbed. I sure wish I could send some of this nice weather to those of you who are experiencing the blowing snow today. It reached almost 80° here.
