These past few days have been a whirlwind. I’m busy, busy, busy. But my dog, Turley, has carried out his personal mission to keep me laughing. Every morning, he noses me awake, wags his tail and bounces around until I can’t help but laugh. When I take him for his morning walk, he prances along, showing off his favorite pinecone to every dog, and human, he passes by. For Turley, there’s no to-do list. There’s no appointments to hurry off to, no schedule. Rain or shine, he’s content just to go outside, explore and discover every fascinating smell. I could learn a thing or two.
