I last wrote on June 22? What happened to the time? My garden still produced veggies despite the dismal weather; July and September were wet. Lots of Japanese beetles and the blight took my tomatoes and cucumbers. Lots of beans, carrots, peas and beets, so it was okay. And, the garlic did very well. I spent a month in Idyllwild, CA with my husband in July and then August and September just disappeared in a wink.
Recently we adopted a puppy. We have been talking about it for months and then it just happened. So she was meant to be a part of our family. My hubby calls me one afternoon to see if I want to go to the sale barn to look at lab puppies. When we get there, the owners have already left. Walking around, we are informed by a young girl that we can have a free puppy. The puppies were brought earlier in the day and left. Three fuzzy balls of fur; two puppies are sleeping and oblivious to our presence, but one little puppy is only too happy to meet our acquaintance. I think the minute I picked up the puppy we knew she was coming home with us.
Supposedly she is part Australian shepherd and blue heeler. It has been a month since we brought her home. We have our moments, but we are quite fond of her. She tries to herd us in the yard and she gathers all the shoes under the dining room table. She needs a job. Maybe a few sheep or something. A picture of our baby!
Barni wondering what all the fuss is about!
I have recently decided I have given our puppy too much freedom. We have some behavorial issues to work on. Such as running around like she has eaten a cup of pure sugar, evading my advances to pick her up and ignoring my requests to come when called. Just little annoying behaviors to name a few. Like anything else, she needs some boundaries and lots of love.
