Saturday, May 12

Wednesday a friend and neighbor and I went shopping.  We got a nice frame for a friend who is moving and then hit some stores.  Had a nice strawberry salad for lunch.  There was a close out sale at a local dress shop.  I picked up two new tops for my trip next week. 

I am leaving Tuesday for Sante Fe and Albuquerque for a few days off.  My sister is going to stay with Cowboy.  I am looking forward to having some time without the daily requirements of caring for him.  My sister and I and a friend of mine from years ago hatched this plan last fall and then had to postpone things because Cowboy acquired his staph infection.

Sister is flying here on Monday.  I am flying to New Mexico on Tuesday and meeting a friend from Tulsa where we used to live at the airport.  We are going to use my sister's car and her home and care for her cat while she stays with Cowboy and looks after him.  Hope all works as planned.

I took Cowboy for a ride yesterday and put the top down.  Beautiful weather and beautiful clouds. 

Today I concentrated on making sure all the little things around here that needed doing were handled. 

Cowboy walked out the front door today and started walking down the street.  Normally he goes out and stands in the driveway and then comes back in.  I gave it a few minutes and when he didn't come back in I went out and found him about a half  block away just walking and enjoying the sunshine.  I really worry he will fall or go too far so never wait more than a few minutes if he goes out the door.  He walks very slowly and can't get far very fast.
