….  inhale, tuck toes under and lift hips towards the ceiling, paws in front on the floor, shoulder width apart…  using straight arms press hips up and back…

keep the spine straight and long…  back paws pressed into the floor, feeling a stretch in the back of the legs…  head and neck hang freely….  breathe…. hold.. exhale…

I sure like that new Yoga DVD…  I wonder why they call that pose downward dog anyway?

Jump into the back…. here we go… this is going to be tough when the hips go… Pop always said the hips will be the first things to go…  I wonder if that Golden on Drew Carey was acting?  Should’ve won a Grammy if he was… they just don’t make TV like that anymore.

Okay, I’m off the leash… FREEDOM… ready to run… wait, got to be cool… Don’t want to look like country goes to the city…  better walk it out and see who’s here…

Fluffy, what’s up?  Good to see ya…  new collar?  Nice, and the little booties match the bows…   I can’t believe they make her wear that stuff… is there no dignity?  Bad enough she has to ride around in that purse all the time…

Look at him run to pick it up… HA HA HA HA… I still don’t understand why he wants to save my sh… droppings… seems kind of gross if you ask me… wonder where he keeps all the baggies?  Maybe under his bed with the old socks… they smell the same anyway…
