:Just Another Weekend update

Whew! Did any of you see where the weekend went?! If so, please retrieve it and send it back! There were more things I wanted to do. This is payback time of the year , payback for enduring a long winter and mud season rather than a spring. The weather has been gorgeous. One can ‘while away the hours. Creating Slide Shows. Reading. Watching Fried Green Tomatoes for the upteenth time.

Now here it is Monday morning! As good a time as any to start to practice the 5th yogic principle. Aparigraha. Not grasping. Greedlessness. You can’t be grateful and greedy at the same time. I’ll give it a try. Be grateful for time. Be grateful for time. Repeat one million times until it feels like there’s plenty of time.

Over the weekend Shelley’s Iris picked up her second major, along with a Best of Breed win. Congrats! The following day Fernando was Best of Breed and placed 4th in the group.

I’ve updated the Center Stage page with what dogs are currently available for forever homes, including several slide shows. Still more work to do on that, as we’ve decided to place Manny and Rosie.

Kathy, I love the kata. The poem. And all your ideas. Lunch soon! :::sigh::: Later, rather than sooner.

Susan, please take a photo of the chimes for me.

Faye, congrats on Sonam! He’ll be a Canadian Champion before you know it! I’m looking so forward to seeing you in September.

Kelly, don’t tell Lori, but I’m going to share the photos of her and Tamdin on her porch. Glad you conned her into sitting still!

Had a great lunch with Tammy Friday. along with picking up Jill. Blowing Puppy Coat Jill. Did her out Saturday morning. Took me about 1/2 hour. Years ago, while learning to hand strip a Dandie Dinmont Terrier, the breeder asked me why I was making it hard on myself. I need to figure out how to teach others because it seems to me a fair number of people are making Apso coat care far more difficult than it needs.

Got great photos of Tammy and Matthew in the show ring with Wyatt and Thateus. And Tammy with Andrea’s beautiful Tibetan Terrier. Will share soon.

Named Chandra and Keeper’s puppies… This litter is From The Past. Nagpo and Keeper’s puppies are To The Past. Chandra means moon. Ken had previously suggested Skyon Pa Po, which I saved for a Chandra and Keeper puppy. His call name is Sky. So, I combined sky and moon for a theme and came up with these names:

Kunza Akasa From The Past (female) – Akasa means ether.

Kunza Nara From The Past – Nara means air.

Kunza Skarma From The Past – Skarma means star.

Kunza Skyon From The Past – Skyon means guardian.

And now I’d better get to work. Rick and I have a date tonight with The Police. See you there Ginny!
