I had one last ride in the car today....a summer breeze....some ice cubes....and the wind in my fur....I’m tired. I haven’t had much energy. After talking with our vet, my family knew I was ready....they’ve been watching and waiting for me to let them know when I was ready to cross the rainbow🌈bridge....I’ve been letting them know...in my own way. I’m grateful for my friends on Facebook who have loved me and cheered for me when I scored roadside goodies or delicious family desserts or Christmas cookies and more.
In my earlier days, I’ve run through almost all of the neighbors’ houses and rooted through a few cars too...minivans had the best surprises! I’ve looted children’s Easter Baskets and broken up a senior citizen’s cocktail hour at the beach...I distinctly remember a well dressed older gentleman who called me a beast and made The Boss of Me cry....and to think all I had was a few Cheetos! Maybe it was my paws on TOP of the picnic table that threw them for a loop. My manners needed work...I was never allowed off leash after that event. I’ve found oodles of delectable delights on the road and grossed out Mr. & Mrs. Boss of Me....but you cheered me on. You understood my food cravings though I didn’t always have the best etiquette.
I’ve made small friends at Montessori and bigger friends at college. I’ve made friends on the village green, at the beach, in the Hardware Store. I’ve even helped The Boss of Me explain her way out of a ticket or two. I’ve been awesome on road trips....to visit family and friends...I’ve been to Long Island....Manhasset. I’ve been to Rhode Island....Narragansett and Newport and Watch Hill. I’ve been in cities and small towns and back roads and trails. I’ve gotten rides in Mini Coopers, Jeeps and Volvo’s and Lexus’ and Buick’s, Chevy’s and Chrysler’s and Subaru’s. I’ve
had a big furry family too...Daisy, the family golden tried to teach me good manners....”tried.” Jinx has been a good buddy to me....even if he slept in my bed more t
Life is but a dream....I love the sounds and smells of summer. It’s hot. I’m cool just hanging with The Boss of Me and Mr. Boss of Me....and Jinx....and the kid bosses who come and go. Summer lovin’...ain’t life grand!

So The Boss of Me took me for a spin last night....it turns out I like a little John Denver.....”country road, take me home”.....I’m a Connecticut girl but West Virginia works.
I like country roads....I’ve been blessed with some major bonanzas on the side of the road when we’re out walking.... some of my best....chicken, apple cores, banana peels, Chinese food boxes, twenty slices of bread (that must have been individually tossed out of a car window by some thoughtful person who thought it would be nice to feed the birds with their stale bread.....every twenty feet, I’d lunge into the woods to find the next piece....oh, as you can imagine, he was thrilled...and a little sore from so much yanking.
The Life of Fitzy can’t be beat!

My good friend came today visit and brought me Frosty Paws! Who’s luckier than moi?
Xo💗Fitzy
So much love. What else really matters?
Xo💗Fitzy
Oh, how they’re spoiling me in my golden years! After dinner peanut butter jars....just like a doggy after dinner mint! Perhaps The Boss of Me and the family are getting soft?

So I didn’t have my surgery...maybe next week...I’m okay with that. I had an overload of love & kisses today! I’m happy to be home. Today was like a test run....

The Boss of Me knows the way to my heart. Sometimes she just gets her own iced coffee....today she ordered a burger for moi.

Oh! If you could be me for just one day...I love being on top of, nearby, next to,underneath or beside my people... and their stuff. I feel connected. Besides, there might be food...I’ll settle with some pats on my head.

Spring is in the air...and the water!!
