We do not remember days; we remember moments.
— Cesare Pavese
Treasures are positive things that strike my fancy, that make me feel happy or thankful or interested. Treasures are memories encapsulated in just a few words.
These are my Treasures for the past week.
- A "toddler" puppy (at the bank no less!). His human had brought him in – too young to stay out front! The puppy had had an "accident" on the floor. The man got paper towels from the teller and cleaned it up, then went outside the bank to throw away the mess. The puppy took a few steps, sniffed, and realized his human was Gone! Meep?
When the man came back the puppy came over and sat tight between the man's feet and the wall of the teller area, with one foot on the man's shoe. I think the puppy might grow up to be a Golden retriever but right now he's just a puppy.
- Bright purple bougainvillea
- The work area of the "fixit man" at the watch and jewelry repair hop – work surface covered with carefully removed springs, tiny screws, and gears
- Naps with the cats
- Sitting on the couch, reading, Squirrel on the back of the couch; Bebop on my legs.
