Lucy has a new daily routine these days. She stays snuggled on the bed while I get up, hit the button to flatten the adjustable bed, go to the kitchen start my coffee, get her breakfast ready…oh, there you are…

I take her out, give her her breakfast, stir my coffee, grab it and a Metamucil wafer and head for the front door.

She’s on my heels ready for her morning porch sit. She looks off in all directions, and then settles down to either chew a bone or doze on her bench.

She is so much more content and happy here.
