..the moon was so beautiful that the ocean held up a mirror.

I'm up early today. I'm not a morning person. I leave that for those with natural, post-sleep energy.

I'm up because Punky stepped into something slimy after his shower. He alerted me to the slime and then showered off his foot. As I was cleaning the slime, using the intestinal fortitude I do not possess to not add to the slime, he stepped in another pile and then showered off his foot again.

Puppy does not feel well and I slept too soundly to help him. Now he's under observation and I'm a little green.

Wahoo for puppy-parenting.
