Dude, I'm A Slacker!

Okay, not so much really, but I have been busy as heck what with the new pup and all the other things going on. Like, The Mate is getting a new power chair, so he'll be able to go place again! This is awesome, but meant I had to do some serious moving of things so he could use it in the house as well. And I'm not anywhere close to done with the things I need to get done around here, but you didn't come here to listen to me whine about that.

And I blew up my Greader, and am starting over so I can organize, so I will have to spend some time working on that too. So if I unfollowed you, it's not personal, and I'll be back! Possibly under my other gmail address, so that I can keep things organized, and maybe be able to comment on posts sooner. See, I sometimes wind up reading posts a week or more after they are posted, and I always feel strange about commenting so late, so I kinda don't do it, and then I feel bad that I'm not commenting on all your wonderful posts! Yucky spiral that is.

Of course, I also have lots of things I'd like to do with my blogs, and not nearly enough time to do them, which kinda sucks too. And editing pictures takes me quite a while, so I need to either get better at it or take less pictures. Yeah right, less pictures. That won't happen. I'd love to reorganize my Photobucket, but that would mean going back and correcting ALL my links, and I'm not sure I have the guts to try that. Too bad there isn't a way to automate that. And while I'm mentioning ambitions, I'd like to do some videos for my blogs, so that means a whole new set of things to learn, like how to edit them, and how to take decent ones. Not to mention get over how much I hate hearing myself talk. Haha.

So anyway, here I am with my first manicure of the year, three weeks later. If you're still reading, then jump on in and take a peek at what I did. I sure liked it.

"Emergency" transport and some of my pups!

Sometimes a rescued dog just doesn't work out, and has to go back from whence he came. This is one such situation, and we put together a transport in a few hours, in the opposite direction.

What The Dogs Loved About Christmas!

I think what they loved the most was getting to spend plenty of time outside playing. Since we had our pre-made dinner, I had plenty of time to head out with them. I wish there'd been more snow to play in (they do love it so), but it wasn't a big deal. I'd be more caught up on posts, but I seem to have been hit with some nasty germs, and am feeling pretty crappy. The Mate has his Esophageal Dilation tomorrow, and he has been scheduled for neck surgery on the 18th. So I'm going to be way busy over the next few weeks. Right now all I want is to be able to get more than 30 feet away from a bathroom. *sigh* Back to the dogs.  Take the leap and see how much fun they had.

Finally, Holiday Pictures!

I guess it's time for me to get my butt in gear and post the pictures from our lovely holiday dinner for two. We had a pretty low-key holiday, and it was wonderful in it's own way. I'd have gotten this up earlier, but I seem to have been struck with some kind of stomach bug and am feeling pretty rough. So take the leap, and check things out. There are LOTS of pictures to see.

Bo The Wonder Saint!

Okay, since I sorta blew off coming back to the blog (but I have a REALLY good reason!), I'm finally going to show off pictures of Bocephus, the lovely Saint Bernard that I'm fostering for a month. Plus, a few pictures of our dogs, and transport pictures. If you wanna know why it took so long, you'll have to click and read.

Bo is HUGE!

So let's look at some more beach pictures while I give him a few minutes to check things out before I start flashing pictures at him over and over. LOL

While I Catch Up, MOAR Beach Dogs!

I'm uploading and editing transport pictures, so while I get that done (in between the chores and such), how about a whole bunch more beach dog pictures? We really had a blast that day, and I went so totally camera happy. So let's get to the pretty pretty pictures!

More Beach Pics!

I'm just feeling like posting some more beach pictures to share with you. I had so much fun, and the dogs totally enjoyed themselves. I usually don't take a lot of pictures when I take the dogs out to get exercise and such, so when I do take the camera, I go a little bit overboard. Muahahaha! Enjoy!

Life Is A Beach!

And I mean that in the good way! As I may have mentioned, I took a WHOLE BUNCH of pictures of the dogs at the beach, and I'm going to share a few more today.

Good News / Bad News

Sometimes I hate hearing somebody say, "I've got good news and bad news." But when the good news outweighs the bad news, it's not so bad. So, here's my bad news: The Jeep has blown a head gasket. That's WAY more than $387 to fix. But, here's the good news. It's covered under warranty. On top of that, the rest of the damage has been determined to have been cause by the head gasket, so we aren't going to have to pay the $387 either! We'll only have to pay a $25 deductible, and we'll have our Jeep back in a few days (instead of today). This is excellent news, because I just checked my bills, and somehow I didn't pay the electric last month, so I need to pay double to catch up. Ooops.

Let's celebrate by enjoying a few pictures of the dogs.
