Things are very busy here (growing season)..plus, I'm spending my time swimming with the dogs. <br /><br />And..I'm just damned lazy about blogging. <br /><br />My fierce guard dog, Irie the Akita, is finishing her Shy Dog class today. Yes, Shy Dog. She's very gentle and sweet with everyone once she is allowed space to get to know them. The people who scream "Akitas are SO MEAN!"..HAHAHA!<br />People aggression is not a breed norm, but they are in fact a guard breed. They aren't supposed to fawn over strangers, dumb ass.<br />If you're "one of those people", ask yourself this: <br />Why does a <span style="font-style:italic;">guard breed</span> feel the need to dislike me? <br /><br />What kind of energy are YOU putting out, hmmm?<br /><br /><br />Anyway,<br />we're finishing up shy dog class, and looking around for other classes that are micromanaged. Hard to find here in WV.<br />I've got a few photo posts coming up- the new raised beds, some fun shots of the dogs, etc.Samhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01071215560719725238noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2488960940119869545.post-71300341262380165222009-04-23T04:25:00.000-07:002009-04-23T04:35:59.096-07:00"You eat my cookies.....<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.gollyg.net/shop/avactis-images/pimage_452_47353f8bdc2f4.jpeg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 450px; height: 450px;" src="http://www.gollyg.net/shop/avactis-images/pimage_452_47353f8bdc2f4.jpeg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br />..and I'll <span style="font-style:italic;">eat your SOUL</span>"<br /><br />That is one CREEPY ass cookie jar!<br />*gulp*<br /><br />But, all soul-eating clowns aside..

She doesn't pull, but it gives me a little more direction and control when she's having a fearful moment. People, for reasons I don't get, think it's a muzzle. She also looks moderately scary (according to others)...soooo...we Cuted it. Now people say how adorable she looks, and they don't pull a U turn when they see her coming.<br /><br /><a href="http://s264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/APRIL/?action=view&current=012.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/APRIL/th_012.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://s264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/APRIL/?action=view&current=001-1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/APRIL/th_001-1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br />We took Voo and Irie for a long drive...LOVELY weather.<br /><br />Easter ducks!

Woo.<br /><br />I'm going with <a href="http://www.squarefootgardening.com/index.php/The-Project/how-to-square-foot-garden.html">square foot gardening</a> this go-round. I'm damned tired of fighting through clay and shale...bring on the fabulous rock-and-clay free soil of a raised bed!<br />(I will miss the Shovel Drills...you get a true picture of your balance when you sink a shovel into the ground a few inches, hop on with both feet and immediately hit rock. It takes speed and agility not to fall on your ass. Over and over. I do not heart northern WV soil.)<br /><br />The Planting List:<br />Squash- Sunburst, Golden Dawn, Richgreen and Magda<br />Peas- Sugar Sprint and Frosty<br />Cauliflower- Early Dawn and Veronica<br />Beans- Valentino and<br />Beets- Bull's Blood (the young tops are REALLY good in salad)<br />Cabbage-Stonehead<br />Eggplant- Fairy Tale<br />Corn (wont be in raised bed)-Luscious and Polka<br />Broccoli- Coronado Crown<br />Potatoes- No idea! I'll get there.<br /><br />I know I forgot a few things......<br /><br />I considered planting carrots and bell peppers, but I can get huge bags of really nice organic peppers/carrots at freakin' Costco for $3. It just didn't justify the space/expense of planting my own.<br /><br />Square foot gardening is supposedly more cost/effort efficient. We'll see. As it stands, I need roughly 76 12in squares. Holy soil, Batman. Michael will be SO THRILLED with our next few weekends. *snort*<br /><br /><center><br /><a href="http://s264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/APRIL/?action=view&current=006.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/APRIL/th_006.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /></center><br />And squash shall overcome Earth.Samhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01071215560719725238noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2488960940119869545.post-23721810955279456322009-04-05T17:08:00.000-07:002009-04-05T17:09:52.373-07:00Sunday's photos<center><br /><a href="http://s264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/APRIL/?action=view&current=003.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/APRIL/th_003.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br />"I like to feel the wind up my nose."<br /><br /><a href="http://s264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/APRIL/?action=view&current=014.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/APRIL/th_014.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/APRIL/?action=view&current=020.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/APRIL/th_020.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/APRIL/?action=view&current=027.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/APRIL/th_027.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/APRIL/?action=view&current=029.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/APRIL/th_029.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/APRIL/?action=view&current=040.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/APRIL/th_040.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/APRIL/?action=view&current=046.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/APRIL/th_046.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /></center>Samhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01071215560719725238noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2488960940119869545.post-64398235731777418832009-04-05T16:59:00.000-07:002009-04-05T17:06:43.963-07:00tidbit from Saturday night...I'm in the shower, long day swirling down the drain.

Voo is turning into an excellent trail dog. He's rocking it. We took him off about 50 feet off the trail -multiple times- and asked him to Find It.. he nailed it every time. Right back to the trail, no messing around. He walks ahead of us (on lead of course), and is managing to follow the trail with no input (slack lead, no verbal). Amazing fella. <br />Strider, as always, was a peach (unless you're Michael and then he pulls on leash. Stop cuddling and train him for 2 minutes! ;) )<br /><br />Henry and Irie hiked on Sunday.<br />Henry LOVES trails, but he's in it for him..we're just there to provide transportation to/from the parks.<br />For whatever reason, he loves walking up downed trees. Michael keeps a close eye on him (and he's wearing a RuffWear harness, complete with 'luggage handle').<br /><br />Irie is doing SO well on the trails. Hard to believe she's only nine and a half months.<br />I have high hopes for her.<br />We're taking it easy on those maturing puppy joints, and slowly working on our personal trail commands...she's doing well :)<br /><br />Enough babble.<br /><center><br /><a href="http://s264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/MARCH/?action=view&current=054.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/MARCH/054.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://s264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/MARCH/?action=view&current=053.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/MARCH/053.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://s264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/MARCH/?action=view&current=041.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/MARCH/041.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://s264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/MARCH/?action=view&current=047.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/MARCH/047.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://s264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/MARCH/?action=view&current=049.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/MARCH/049.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://s264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/MARCH/?action=view&current=044.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/MARCH/044.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://s264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/MARCH/?action=view&current=035-1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/MARCH/035-1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://s264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/MARCH/?action=view&current=046.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/MARCH/046.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://s264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/MARCH/?action=view&current=033.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/MARCH/033.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://s264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/MARCH/?action=view&current=034.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii179/chaos_dogs1376/MARCH/034.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><br /></center>Samhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01071215560719725238noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2488960940119869545.post-55329858037768441402009-03-12T17:18:00.000-07:002009-03-12T18:29:01.703-07:00Yay Benadryl!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_YKl8HKwtluQ/Sbmsk2QzFjI/AAAAAAAAAU0/gaVIguWmwoY/s1600-h/111.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_YKl8HKwtluQ/Sbmsk2QzFjI/AAAAAAAAAU0/gaVIguWmwoY/s400/111.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5312466984501450290" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br />A stressful week resulted in hives on my chest, neck and cheek.<br />What.. you don't find bumpy/itchy/inflamed skin the height of sexy?<br />I am moments from scooting face-down the length of my gravel driveway. <br /><br />No really.<br />If not for Benadryl and hydrocortisone cream I might be getting a little crazy.<br /><br />On a more pleasant note, I saw a ROBIN today.

I'm a big fan of Sunday suppers.<br />I made pizzas today. I think I finally mastered pizza crust. I asked Michael's opinion, I got a thumbs up and a garbled "grmple" kind of noise.<br /><br />We watch a few trash tv shows on Sundays, too. One thing about reality tv...you feel a little bit better about the crazy in your own life.<br /><br />Quiet day, but really nice.Samhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01071215560719725238noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2488960940119869545.post-70579546338408092612009-02-28T17:29:00.000-08:002009-02-28T17:42:18.454-08:00Last hike of February..and I'm not sad about it.
