| Since we last met, my dear dog, Miss Pudge, died. She is irreplaceable. But the hole in our hearts must be filled. Last month, a new dog came to live with us. Izzy Lulu is 6-month-old French Bulldog. Sweet, funny, and a bit bossy. We've started clicker training with CyberDogOnline, web-based home schooling for hounds. I am finally learning how to use my video camera--and a clicker, of course. | Since we last met, my dear dog, Miss Pudge, died. She is irreplaceable. But the hole in our hearts must be filled.

We are moving from the largest city in the state to a town of about 90,000 situated right at the tip of Lake Superior. I've live in the same house since 1985 (which sort of surprises me), so I have a lot of sorting, pitching, and packing to do. Feels good to lighten the load. | ||

| + | Unlike most sensible people, we did not sell our old house before buying the new one. We aren't quite in the new house, and we aren't quite out of the old house. Maybe my husband will pack-move-unpack while I am at the Gathering so I can come home to a order and serenity. | ||
