Tinkerbell (K's Tinkerbell) - 5/6 - Stairs, cheese and chillin'

Retired life is kinda silly if you ask me, even if it is also a really nice change of pace.  Excuse me, darlin'?  Who am I?  I'm a down-home kinda gal from West Virginia!  Name's Tinkerbell, y'hear? 

I've been learning all about the retired life.  Yesterday, I figured out how to go up and down stairs all by myself.  I mean, sure, these other two greyhounds went up first but it seemed pretty easy so I just done it. 

Today, I found out what "cheese" is.  It's pretty yummy, I do declare.  I also got a taste of something called peanut butter!  In between treats and naps, I like to chill out in my own special place and take selfies.  See?


I'm quiet and affectionate and a real joy to be around, if'n I do say so myself! 

Maybe I'll stop back by in a day or two and y'all can ask me what else I learned about bein' retired!
