Disney and Riley
are Jack Russell Terriers, and life at my house is always an adventure. They
have two settings, warp speed or sleep. They’ve been great company
during this whole work-from-home adventure. They help me plot mysteries, work
on dialogue, and want to share all of my snacks.
Here's what I've
learned from them...
1. Live in the
now. Today is what's important. The past and future don't matter as much.
2. Play hard.
Life can't be all work. Everything is a game to a Jack.
3. Nap when you
need to. You need to recharge every once in a while.
4. Don't waste a
beautiful day inside. Go outside and have fun.
5. Know when
it's time to cuddle on the couch with a good book.
6. Bark if you
need to, but not too much.
7. Wag and make
friends. Relationships are important.
