Old People Have dogs


Same filter as last time, PhotoMania .. I cant get past the first click on this one because I love everything ! But it has a lot to explore and I will do better at looking further, BUT since today is National Dog Day...here is my dog Roxy.
I was standing above her and she was upside down...silly dog.

Things are going ok. Better than ok I suppose. I have a lot to be grateful for. I will be heading to Utah to take care of my mother in law on Sunday. Will be there a couple of weeks. Am taking my sketch book. I decided at 52 that maybe I would see if I was any good at drawing. So I watch videos and try to copy them. I can follow directions. I drew this: my very first eye. LOL
Well I hope everyone has a blessed and safe weekend! May you be happy, may you be safe, may you be healthy, may you be at peace!

Old People contemplate life....

Photo Mania is todays filter. I liked the choices , however I am in a bit of a rush today and did not fully explore this filter. I bookmarked it so I can come back, some fun filters that I havent seen in other programs, so I want to get a better look.


The boy is off to Tennessee to help his brother. The guest found a place and is gone (here 2 weeks, was supposed to be a couple days, but hey sometimes you gotta help people)
The husband should be home from his hunt today.
I am feeling better, trying to be more positive. Trying to be more upbeat. Figuring out where people belong in my life so I dont expect them to be one thing when they are another. Today is usually my rest day at the gym, I skipped yesterday and I may go ahead and skip today. Never end the week on leg day!!!
I am really REALLY thinking hard about getting another dog. I want a small one that doesnt shed too much, I still have one dog who has never been the ONLY dog before and I feel like she is lonely. I am THINKING about it, because I dont know how life would be with NO PETS. I mean eventually this dog will die too. Its so heartbreaking when that happens, I dont want to get another puppy and then do this again. Plus pets really do tie you down as far as traveling and stuff, of course, it hasnt stopped me at all....anyhow decisions will be made.

Old People do what they want...

Todays filter is PixlrExpress from my android phone...
A praying mantis I saw on my porch. Its only about 1/2 long and bright green! It made my still grieving heart happy for a second. 


 Still havent left the house, I am just finding NO REASON to go do anything its pointless. I know I am in a funk and will be better soon. I know skipping the gym since Friday is NOT helping. I will go to the gym tomorrow. I just needed one more day. 
Problems have been solved, plans have been made. Bills paid and I scrubbed the shit out of my oven and microwave, so I guess my staying home hasnt really HURT anything....

Old People get sad

Todays filter is CITRIFY...just the pencil sketch effect. My little dog died yesterday and I am like seriously upset. So this is dedicated to my little Duchess who was there right by me through many many of lifes storms. She was a good dog and I miss her.


Thats all I got today. I am sad.

Old People take spin classes, at least once...

This is a picture I took on my way to Utah a few months ago. I used Aviary to filter and put the quote on the picture. In hindsight I wish I had used black color on the lettering..but I felt the picture was already dark enough. Anyhow....


SOOOO I am going to try my very first EVER spin class today. I met someone at the gym last week who talked me into trying it so I am excited and kinda nervous about it.
I feel like it will kill me, or I will fall in love with it. Either way, it will be a good leg day workout. 
Then driving to Phx to take care of some business and my little dog is going to die any day now, it makes me sad she has been such a really great companion to my kids and to me since 2000, so sad...

ok, I better start stretching!

Old People Stay busy

Used Pixlr for the collage and all the effects...except that lipstick in the middle picture...thats all #Ulta!!

As my grandson said....SOOOO MANY SELFIES.......

Had a great lunch with my friend at Postinos today and a Sprinkles cupcake which will cost me extra treadmill time tomorrow but sooo worth it!
Got all my cleaning done and now going to sit on the couch and finish watching #Stangerthings...
