Oh summer where have you gone?? Only yesterday Lucy was glorying in the Rooney's farm pond.   We went up the other day and although she went into the pond, it was not with the same degree of obvious enjoyment when it was 45 degrees as opposed to 85.  They say that dogs have no concept of time and live totally in the moment.   Regretting the past and fearing the future is not in their mental capability.  I don't know how anyone truly knows for sure what they are thinking, but I do believe I should try to be less of a "what if" type of person, and just enjoy the now.  Time is like a rip tide, relentlessly sweeping along whether I want it to or not.   Struggling against it is futile and exhausting.   So I will do my best to just enjoy what each day brings, and find my human equivalent of a bright green tennis ball.
