Notes to myself

Dear Dog's Best

Every time you feel your arms are being yanked off their sockets when you're carrying Vidur around ...think about the day when he'll be too big for you to lift him

Every time he screams for you to "come out this instant" from the bathroom while you take your two-minute shower...think about the time when he can't wait for you to get out of the house so he can have a party

Every time Smokey whines and whines for a walk during the hottest hour of the day....think about the days when he'll be too old to do more than lift his head and wag his stump at you (he's a cocker spaniel)

Every time you think 'won't amma stop rambling on and on about someone I have absolutely no interest in' ...think about the days when you'll be talking to only her memory

Every time you think your dad is so impatient and short with you...think about the time when you'd give anything to hear him yell at you just one more time

Every time you wish everyone would just leave you alone...think about the times when you'll wish that atleast the neighbour's dog would give you a friendly bark.

Every time you write a note to yourself ...think about the time when you may be too senile to understand it.
I think I should stop writing notes to myself
