Scratching the surface

Who am I?  Does anyone else think that's the hardest question to answer?  I'm a whole made up of little pieces that are always changing.  That's one of the reasons to keep this blog.

Me!

Here's a little about me:

• I can cook but I don't like to.
• Backpacking Europe was the best experience of my life.
• I love hot cocoa even in the summer.
• I can't start a TV show in the middle of a season.
• This is the first house I've ever rented on my own.  It's quirky and I love it!
• I've got mad singing and dancing skills in the car.
• I prefer jeans and a tshirt with a hoodie.
• I've never ordered a drink and not been carded (that might have something to do with my style choice.)
• I cry at almost all sad movies.
• I listen to Disney songs when I clean.

One of the most important things you should know about me is that dogs are my life.  I have a degree in English Literature but I've decided to make training dogs my career.  That all started with raising puppies for Canine Companions for Independence.  Taking a dog to high school everyday will sure teach you to rise above the silliness of teenage kids.  I'm about to go for my training certification this year.  Wee!

I have two dogs and a cat of my very own.  They are my babies and I'd pretty much do anything for them.

Theo

Gerani

Theo is my first cat.  He graciously allows me to live in his house.  He loves chin scratches and is obsessed with escaping outside.















Gerani is my old girl.  She was one of my CCI puppies and came back to live with me after she decided she'd rather be waited on in life.  She turns 12 on Monday but she's such a trooper.

Whitman

Whitman is my mystery boy.  Six months after I lost my lab, Vallie, I decided I needed a puppy.  Whitman was an "impulse buy" at the humane society.  Boy howdy I didn't know what I was getting into.  He's touchy around strangers but he's my fluffy boy.  I wouldn't trade him for anything.











There's always more where that came from.  You'll have to tune in to find out.
