I've been asked by lots of people two questions concerning Alice:<br />
<br />
1. What breed of dog is Alice?<br />
2. Where did I get Alice?<br />
<br />
The answers:<br />
<br />
1. I have no idea what breed of dog Alice is, but she is beautiful!<br />
2. Alice is a rescue dog.<br />
<br />
I love Alice to pieces and she goes with me everywhere I am allowed to take her. I respect the rules as any dog owner should, but there aren't many places I do go that she cannot go.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2330395896108162952.post-48154862434431263042015-05-28T07:41:00.000-07:002015-05-28T07:41:22.970-07:00Trip to Paris<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Lacey and Alice were spotted on the streets of Paris today.<br />
<br />
Lacey was sporting a cool pair of sunglasses and pink cropped pants with gold jacket.<br />
<br />
Alice was wearing her usual outfit ...looking cute as a pup can look in Paris.<br />
<br />
Lacey must be getting ready for some new event and/or replacing her summer capsule wardrobe.<br />
<br />
Either ... we are sure to see her and Alice out and about while they walk the streets of Paris.<br />
<br />
Can't wait to see what Lacey brings back home and to hear the stories about who she saw, met or ate with on this trip.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2330395896108162952.post-25344960707689036392015-05-26T13:37:00.000-07:002015-05-26T13:37:50.032-07:00Memorial Day Dinner Awards Banquet<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Lacey looked radiant for the Memorial Day Dinner and Awards Banquet.<br />
<br />
She received an award and wanted to look her best.<br />
<br />
Naturally Alice begged to tag along ...one of the issues Lacey faces with taking Alice with her everywhere she can, but no amount of begging will win her a seat for this fancy event.<br />
<br />
Lacey gave Alice the usual couple of treats and belly rub before heading out the door which always fixes everything.<br />
<br />

For the past few months I've noticed that after eating (mainly) dinner or my largest meal of the day, I felt bloated and lethargic.<br />
<br />
I've been blaming it on different things like allergies, not drinking enough water or lack of exercise.<br />
<br />
What I've discovered through a process of elimination is that the 'after eating' feelings I've been having seemed to be related to eating carbs.<br />
<br />
Eliminating my intake of carbs ...primarily breads, pastas and rice has helped ...a lot!<br />
<br />
I plan to run this Carb Curb theory by my doctor at my next check-up, but I do believe that something has changed for me and my body has decided to take this new course.<br />
<br />

What a beautiful day!<br />
<br />
Alice and I went shopping for a surprise.<br />
<br />
I had a hard time keeping Alice focused on the prize, but after we found just the right one ...she was on board with the idea.<br />
<br />
I am anxious to let everyone know which one I settled on, but I'm going to wait until it is in my possession before revealing what I bought today.<br />
<br />
I'll give you a hint ...I mentioned it in my last post <a href="http://boomerwomanliving.blogspot.com/2015/05/a-new-beginning.html">here</a>.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2330395896108162952.post-47183865065274108202015-05-14T11:32:00.002-07:002015-05-23T15:53:48.167-07:00A New BeginningI had my first notion of retiring several years ago, but at first it was just a thought ...nothing too serious. I allowed things to divert my attention ...I enjoyed the income, just dreaded the schedule. Giving up that steady income was a hard pill to swallow even though I had a plan in motion. Actually working a bit longer helped me make better decisions about my future and turned out to be the better choice.<br />

Have you read or heard about those 'Tiny Houses' (the ones built on a trailer) that have grown in popularity during the past few years?<br />
<br />
I'm considering getting myself one of those 'Tiny Houses' and getting rid of a whole lot of stuff, but keeping my dog, Alice, of course.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
