Last night, Lynn and I met up at Truffles and Tortes in downtown Anoka to have some desert and catch up on things. I had the scrumptious Chocolate Nirvana and coffee. While Lynn had a Chocolate Torte and tea. Lynn brought her art journal to show me the artwork she made in a class at…
I’m a play it safe kind of lady. If I have one change in the works, I certainly don’t want to intentionally bring another change or challenge into the mix. Too much stress all at once. Too many things I’ll have to do all at once. Too much uncertainly, all at once…
Okay, I admit it, I’m not the best of dog trainers. You never see the professionals giggling. Sorry. I can’t help it.I’m trying to deal with Java’s boredom during the dark days of winter by teaching her a few new tricks. The first one is spin, which she has down a little too well and…
Okay, I rarely post more than once a week anymore, but I can not keep such weather joy to myself. I must share! My drive home from work: The dogs have a better attitude about it.

Love the picture!

Paint Girl – Java tries. She really needs a playmate more her size.
Ari – It’s tempting to let her play. My horses aren’t afraid of her and will only warn her if she starts to bug them. The problem comes if she’s ever around other horses. They might try to kick her and the horses’ owners might night be too thrilled either. Some people will shoot a dog that chases their animals.
Lori – I can keep the cat, dog, and one horse, but I can’t afford the board and care of two horses. I’ll keep both until the house sells anyway.
