Well, this weekend Chase, Tatum and me are going to St. George Utah for a U-FLI Flyball tournament. Should be fun… going to be a lot of work with long days, but it’s a blast and Chase loves it. He’s even running in singles and doubles as well as teams, to see how he does. [...]

Probably part of my back and neck problems is the number of dogs on the bed with me at night… Lucy and Levi have to be on the bed or they get upset. They are, you know, top dogs in the house and have been on the bed for almost 9 years and so that [...]

Geez. My back is in horrible pain. Lower back, and upper back by my shoulder blades. I think my mattress is bad for me. I think it’s too firm. I didn’t even do much yesterday, sat around with the family and had Easter celebrations. We are not religious, but we like to celebrate the holidays. [...]

Yeah yeah, can’t get enough of this new camera. This is Tonks… now that is a HIGH box! LOL… a bit too high, I’d say. They moved the prop way out and she did better (yup, Tonks as in Nymphadora from Harry Potter, I love her name!) She won’t need any family insurance with her [...]

I would love to have my house made over. It’s small, only 1300 square feet, and the kitchen is absolutely horrible. It’s too small, and old. The tile is corroding on the counters, the sink is awful and has no disposal. And the cabinets are too small for even a cereal box. And the rest [...]

Well, I took Muffit, Tatum and Chase to flyball practice again today. Muffit is very over stimulated there. He barks just about constantly. He’s going to take longer, unfortunately, than I had thought for him to adjust to the whole flyball and dog show environment thing. That’s okay. He’s a doll, and he takes as [...]

A friend of mine told me about some dog podcasts to listen too… and finally I downloaded a podcast receiver and checked them out. Currently I’m listening to Canine Campus, and the podcast on Calming Signals.. yes, from Turid Rugaas, and I’m enjoying it quite a bit. She talkes about how dogs may freeze as [...]
