Rolling over - not what you think

We think of 'rolling over' in pet circles as teaching our pets how to 'roll over' as a trick. Maybe 'play dead' or another fun trick.

I knew one client's dog that loved playing dead. The taught the dog to, as they pointed their hand to the dog in the shape of a gun, they would say 'bang' and the dog would fall down, and play dead.

Then he would jump up to get his reward!

It was so cool.

But what I am talking about is that my car that I drive just rolled over 200,000 miles on Thursday!

I'm excited and proud of that. I like taking care of things as best as possible. The opportunity to share the moderate little excitement of life, but it is like our pets, who we nurse along to enjoy this familiarity of the little quirks that we all have.

We grow to love those little quirks.

Or at least I do.
