Adding a tad here before I leave work – may not be bak until later tomorrow afternoon. Time now is 3:33pm and I am going home - my work here is done for the day - WOOHOO!
Oh goodie – that seventh heaven feeling just ain’t giving up – still has a hold of me sometimes. I found another doggy blog – not just any doggy but another BEAGLE doggy blog here in the U.S. My Beags will be so happy, as I am :)

.... more for today
Added @ 11:44 CST - since there is so much in this post, decided to do a new post rather than add it to the last one.
Oh I hooked up with a blog of someone I know from a listserve for people who own Beagles – that led me to another doggy blog which then led me to a list of doggy blogs – oh I am in seventh-heaven now; just wish I was home so I could spend more time on it. However I have added a few of those doggy blogs to my list of blogs that I follow – bet I add more later.
However tonite and for a while tomorrow, my focus wil be on getting Shasta ready for her evaluations tomorrow and then actually doing them – one for her Delta Society Pet Partner therapy dog and one for her Canine Good Citizen (CGC) standing. Luckily, these will both be held in the same place which is really convenient for me since I don’t drive and have to arrange for public transportation. I have been working with her quite a bit this past week. Last nite and this past Tuesday evening we went to Petsmart to continue working on socialization and trying to get her to stop pulling so much on the leash – no, there were no classes as we have already been through 4 levels of obedience. Rather we went there just to practice what we both have already learned and trying to perfect a few of those skills. I have to admit, my baby girl (she will be 3 y.o. on 10/8/09) really made me proud as we walked by the many stacks of dog food, totally focused and watching me as she walked – instead of pulling the leash to try and find the few pieces of kibble that mite lay under the shelves. That really shows how well bonded and how much trust she puts in me, that she can watch me as we walk and knows that I will not lead her into danger. There may not be a whole lot done on the computer tonite - we are not going anywhere except maybe for a walk but I need to give Shasta a good bath and get our bag ready - need treats, brush, water and bowl and clean up stuff as well as her blankie. Might take my camera too - never know when that photo op might present itself and I want to be ready.
Ok - time for lunch..........

Ok – so this blog is starting to look a little better – adding pics, added a few links, changed the template a little – a little overall updating; just wish I wouldn’t do it so late at nite when I should be in bed. I have to get up in the morning at 5:30 and that comes terribly early when you don’t get to bed until almost midnite the nite before.
I would like to know why time thinks it has to go so fast. Here it is Friday – our animal shelter’s big fundraiser, Paws In The Park, was last Saturday but yet it seems like yesterday (even tho I know I was here at work). I have learned something about having time to write in my blog here at work but yet not being online to much at one time here at work – just hope this works; copy-paste from a word document that I have offline so that way just keep a rolling dialogue going all day. And I bet some of you more experienced bloggers are now saying, DUH! Give me time - I may catch up on some stuff. Bad thing here - I don't have access to my pics on my home computer nor can I access Photobucket here at work where many of my pics are stored online. Ok - I have been online here for a few minutes - will have to stop shortly and get bak to work.

R.E.A.D. program coordinator at the library
Yep - that would be me. I have started already - minimally as currently my main focus is getting Shasta ready for her evaluation this Saturday, 10/3/09. Besides, other than me & Shiloh, there is only 1 other team going to the library this month at the library and she may be doing only this Sunday. However, we are planning on more beginning in January 2010.
However, more on this later - sheets in the dryer need to go on the bed so me and the Beaglebratz can go to bed.
Moving blog ???????????????
I wonder about this question - to move or not to move? Every other blog I am ever able to view, is in a different country. Now I have nothing against other countries, in and of themselves but I would also like to view blogs from here in the U.S. Also, when I am viewing (or should I say attempting to view other blogs like it says I can do - sometimes yes and sometimes no. I don't have a whole lot of free time to just waste away on this.
Besides, time to get bak to work..........................
Added @ 10:56pm - Ok, think I'll stay put for a while longer. Gotta remember to use the connections I have with other blogs here to find blogs of people in the U.S. or blogs by people with similar interests or both - that's how I found the blog for "dogwalkmusings". I will have to explore that when I am awake.
