1 - I need an APB on these two. Both missing from the laundry for over a week. Please keep your eyes open.

2 - Dog food. For most of my dog partnering life I've bought what is available without too much worrying about what the marketers said I should be worried about. There was a time when Zoe had lots of problems and I put her on a special diet based on kangaroo. Long story. But she's been very healthy for ages and I've fed her accordingly. She has in the past few months both been hungry too frequently (I feed her twice a day) AND is a little over weight at 76 pounds. She could stand to lose five. We cut back her treats to dental bones (greenies) and whatever she can wheedle out of Dana. But she started complaining about the food so I changed it up some. Stopped adding the canned food to her kibble and started adding the fresher stuff they sell in tubes at HEB. She loved that shift but it started me down a rabbit hole that has changed my entire thought pattern. Now I'm on Chewys site and nearly pulled the cord to buy a Purina Pro Plan that is focused on mid sized elderly dogs. Then I realized much as I love Chewys I'm paying a resource and not using them. So I'm headed shortly over to our vets to talk to them about food. They carry mostly Royal Canin.
I'll be paying more but I think at nearly 14 years old Zoe needs some more specialized food. There are only three choices according to the vets on Reddit: Royal Canin, Purina Pro Plan, and Hill Science Diet. These three have put in the resources and done the research and have the statistics to back what they sell. The rest of the noise online and elsewhere is marketing.
An interesting rabbit hole that I hope will help Zoe.
3 - Today is the day I'm going to wrap up taxes. I suspect it will take me maybe an hour. It is so simple now compared to a few years ago.
4 - Other than that I'm going to do some stretching and not much else. I rode my bike yesterday and it was fabulous. It was crappy, and rainy and noisy with traffic. Just wonderful. The PT is doing a great job and I'm fairly certain that the big lesson is strength training has to go along with pickleball. I'll get this being old stuff down just in time to not need it any more.
