So, I joined a dog training club last month, to, you know, train my dogs. “But aren’t your dogs already trained?”, you ask. Why no, no they are not. A fact that was made blatantly obvious to me when I joined the club and asked my dogs to perform a simple stand for exam. Hahahahahaha! [...]

Can it possibly have been over a month since I have posted? Wow. See the thing is, there have been things, and stuff, and some things going on. Mainly I have not been very inspired. That, and my darling little one suddenly is way more fun to play with, which means I’m playing stupid baby [...]

Ok, so I’ve had dogs in my bed for the last 20 years or so. Some weird things have happened. Occasionally my bed gets puked on, there is always a lot of hair in it, occasionally someone leaves a chew bone or two under the covers, and you kind of learn not to smell any [...]

Every now and again I still get calls for dog training. Mostly everyone knows I’ve retired, but since I’ve had the same phone number for 6 years or so, there are still a few cards floating around out there. I got one this morning, from a guy with a new puppy. I called him back [...]

Seeing as how my first thought of the year was “Please get Jester our from under the covers before he vomits”, I’m not at all sure what that will mean for this year. It’s always cool to wake up to someone of the canine variety heaving on your sheets. Yuuummy….
After we finally drug ourselves out [...]

It has come to my attention that people other than my Mom and my beloved Kayleen actually read this blog. Yay! To those of you who do visit, thank you for coming to my sick little world – hope you enjoy the trip, and perhaps, maybe, just for fun – you could consider LEAVING A [...]

Hello there internet people! It’s been a while, I’ve been learning to be a Mom and how to manage the baby and the beasties together. It’s not easy, but I do it. Luckily the dogs are all older and mostly reasonable, except for Teak who is still insane. I have earned the respect of many [...]

So Q had her first official “blow out” today. OH…MY…GOD…..
I have never seen anything like it. She didn’t poop yesterday, and was awake all morning, I am so so so very tired, she finally went down around 12:30, and I passed out too. She woke up around 3, and I fed her, and then laid [...]

So yesterday my baby’s umbilical cord fell off. Not thinking, I laid it on the wipee box to show to Josh when he came home. Gross, but you never know. OF COURSE, when he got home it was gone – I can only assume that some cat stole it, played with it, perhaps ate it? [...]

But happy. Q is home and life is good. We are getting the hang of it, and I can see now why you should just not plan anything for the first few weeks – not even showers. Care for baby, then sleep, then maybe eat if you’re feeling fancy, and then, if baby sleeps, maybe [...]
