Nostalgia & Gratitude



Hi friends, It is Sunday night and I'm feeling a bit nostalgic. I was looking at old videos I had made. They are rather amateur but I would like to share some in the next few weeks.

This first video is probably the best video I made and also one of my first ones. The sound quality seems to be much better than some of the later ones I uploaded.

I hope you enjoy.  There is soothing music to go along with it the photos.  It is raining here today and far from the beautiful bright days you see in the video. Nonetheless I had a good day because I was able to sleep in, rest, catch up on computer work, connect by text with a number of friends, connect with my mom and help her out by prayer and advocacy.  I also got to make plans to meet two friends,  later this week; one who is from out of town.  I'm looking forward to seeing both of  them.  I also have a busy week of appointments, errands, phone calls and will be grateful to make it through the week intact and not too tired.

Whenever I have a lot to do I try to plan out my days carefully. I plan out the time so that I can accomplish what is in my calendar at a steady pace rather than a hectic pace. It usually works out well.  I also try to work in rest periods, coffee or lunch stops and time to read a bit of whatever book I'm reading. This week I must return books and need to try and finish one of them which I started long ago. It's called Currency Wars by James Rickards. Very interesting but I can only digest a few pages at a time.  I recommend you catch the author on youtube if you don't want to read the book.




Much love to you all and thank you for stopping by to visit.  I send you all loving thoughts for a beautiful week ahead.

Super Dogs

I went to the Annual Pacific National Exhibition (PNE) on Wednesday and one of the delightful things I did was watch the Super Dog Show. This show proves to be a hugely popular event, year after year and Wednesday was no exception.

Here are some photos of some of the lovely dogs that we were able to see in action. Most of the breeds below are new to me so I won't even pretend to get the breed names right. Hopefully you will know what they are if I haven't correctly identified them.

[An Australian Cross...I think a shepard cross]

[A pug]

[I'm thinking this one is a young Sloughis]

[A Sheltie]

Whenever I see these dogs at the PNE I want to bring one home. This year the little Sheltie really stole my heart and his owner kindly agreed to pose with her beloved pet.

I close with a short movie clip of a special dog from Brazil, doing a dance with his owner. How precious!
