We just returned from 3 days in Loveland. You will never find a cleaner, more wholesome town with lovely scenery and perfectly kept yards. We went to a craft fair; everyone was smiling , suntanned and many knew one another. They have SIDEWALKS; can you believe it? So in my grandson’s neighborhood, the kids can ride their little cars safely then they can walk a block to the community swimming pool complex.
All the restaurants look brand new. Go to Tres Margaritas for wonderful Mexican food; the ribs at Chili’s were dried out.
The Blackeyed Pea is so fantastic they had a 30 min wait so we skipped that this trip. I cannot emphasize the feeling of going back to the fifties in this immaculate, happy town. I don’t know much about the winters there since my son in law sort of changes his tune about the snowfall! LOL But the weather felt like 75 IN MID AUGUST due to the dryness of the air. This may be my favorite town , ever.

dump the husband, shock the kids and just move secretly to some far away commune for a time just to experience it. I bet I’d be the oldest one there. I might hate it. I want to experience the calmness, the vegan lifestyle, the exercise, the cooperation the , er, the….
Nah; this is one thing I’ll never do. When I returned I’d have no husband and my kids would forever pronounce me crazy.

Some people never learn and I’m the worst. Here we are with 2 puppies living inside the house. Sure, they’re fun to cuddle with and they go nuts when you come home. I thought HUSBANDS were supposed to fulfill those needs? But , no; we have 2
puppies who : think Persian rugs are toilets, tear up papers dragging them all over the house, vomit on all trips, have to go out to pee at 6am even on trips, lick your lips, hate baths,
use up 4 or 5 bathtowels after baths, can’t be left alone more than 3 hours or you chew your nails to the bone, and all of this for some cuddles and coronaries when you arrive home.
I JUST DON’T GET IT. WHO NEEDS IT? SICK PEOPLE? BORED ONES?
Yeah, drag the dogs to the relatives’ homes and see how THEY welcome them. You know: the families with the spotless floors?
THOSE types of relatives. The doorbell rings on tv and they start barking; even if you’re taking a very risky nap.
I didn’t even get into: shots, grooming, more shots, illnesses, dog birthing, muddy feet, some of them MUST be walked or they pout and/or chew your furniture.
Just visit the shelters, hug and kiss the puppies , then leave.
