i don't have to get up to walk but the alarm still sounds and the cat still cries and i still get up to take a picture of the lake i can't reach, feed the cats and make coffee, and come back to look at the pictures of a brighter day when we were walking in sun-dappled green under budding and blossoming trees. i'm down to one dog now, and it's not mister. though i love my lulu, i thought if i only have one dog please let it be mister.
