It’s been almost four years since I officially retired from professional handling. I know there was that earlier time when I announced my retirement. My hip was so bad I just couldn’t drag my carcass around the ring. I received so many accolades, I started wondering when I had passed away. It truly was overwhelming. Makes me blush just thinking about them all. Anyway, I had my hip replacement surgery and I felt like a million bucks again. Well, a hundred thousand anyway. And when the pandemic shut everything down, I really got to rehab. When the world opened back up again, I was fit as a fiddle–to a degree. But not working for a year, well, I wasn’t eating Kraft® dinner but things could have been better. Shows started up and I did what I knew best. I started showing dogs. Now, I have really retired. Not the Mike Tyson kind, for real this time–I promise.

Have you ever noticed how the end of the year sneaks up on the beginning of the next year? One minute you are cooking a big, fat, delicious turkey with all the trimmings. Then the very next day, there you are starting a shopping frenzy in both the stores and online. At the same time, there are countless holiday decisions and festivities to attend to with immediacy. When all the holiday frenzy ends, it’s clean-up time. All the seasonal displays, exchanges, and extra pounds need to go away. The final hurdle is New Year’s Eve then New Year’s Day. What should we do? There are at least two different ways to think about it. Are we ready to go out to celebrate, or too exhausted to deal with any of it?
