I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I'm watching Dr. Who with smonster, amyth, and smonster's dog Frankie. (And our non-Buffista friend Anny.)

Frankie is a wonderful puppy. He seems to like people a lot, but he isn't annoying about it. He just hangs out, wagging his tail and being irresistible.

Oh, and I have pretty purple flowers blooming-- need to get the gardening book out and figure out what it is: [link]

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Mountains!

Those are iris.

Barb, those are irises. Some of my fave.

Good job Barb! And great pup, Jasmine.

I'm offering my 3rd annual, walk workshop next weekend and am looking forward to helping people put the kabosh on pulling! It's a joy to see the relief on their faces when they finally get it and can start looking forward to the walk.

This morning's doggy lama appointment was with a wee French Bulldog puppy who absolutely captured my heart. And seeing the looks of astonishment when I taught him to sit and lie down in less than 5 minutes? Priceless! I LOVElovelove helping to eliminate confusion and to create systems that really work for folks.

One of our dog park friends had a birthday party this afternoon (I know, I know.) Her person made meat cupcakes with mashed potato icing and a red pepper 'cherry' on top. V. cute and Bartleby snarfed his without a single chew.

Oh, FNL. Still of the heart.

I think I might need to shut the house down soon. It's getting chilly.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I have to say, though, the casting of Ultimate Nick Fury was spot-on.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

mac pitched a fit that I DARED to tell him to pick up toys and that he could only play DS if he did homework AND that he had a bedtime. A FIT. did not pick up one damned toy. BUT, also did not pick up the DS and did pause the tv when I said no more. So like halfway to compliant? getting him over this thing about not helping to clean AT ALL is so very toddler-ville. do not want.

“Not dead yet!”

Mountains!

Hee! Yeah, it's been gorgeous here, today. The mountains are so crisp and clear, it's like you can reach out and touch them.

And irises! I KNEW they looked familiar, but I've only ever seen them in photographs/paintings. Never in real life. And now they're in my YARD!

Truly, this is a wondrous, magical place.
