We have a local theatre that plays the less mainstream, more independant flicks & I noticed a film I figgered Davey would love. Only showed at 9:30 (on a weeknight? Am I crazed...

Chilly Wednesday Chat 12/4 (Tacran)
It was 22 degrees when we got up this morning, warmed up to a balmy 28 on my drive in. But the sun is shining and the sky is blue, so I'm not complaining. I'm happy to wear a scarf and gloves instead of needing an umbrella! How is everyone faring where there was some severe weather? I wonder...

Tuesday (not black, not green - maybe striped??) Callie 12/3
Sorry -- it just cracks me up all this labelling that goes on ... to me "Black Friday" meant something very very dire and historical. Now it just means I'm supposed to shop. Ewwww- I'm with Jackie. Doesn't matter where, I just hate to shop LOL. Sorry I've been so missing ...

Can you believe a dog did this?! (Tacran)
A woman I used to work with has a Husky mix who can be a bit destructive if left alone too long in the house. She came home one day recently to find that he had taken an unopened can of soup off the counter, OPENED it, and ate every last drop. No one believed her, so she took a photo of the evidence...

How did it get to be Sunday, Dec. 1st already?! (tacran)
It's nearly 4:30pm, Pacific time, so I'm not sure too many non-west-coast iDoggers will see this tonight! Everyone must be recovering from all the Thanksgiving festivities, whether it was cooking, eating, cleaning, shopping, or a combination of any of the above! I did some laundry, ironing...

Happy Thanksgiving and Happy Hanukkah Chat
I hope everyone enjoys their day. I've got a lot to be thankful for today. We're going to Haven for Hope in a little while to drop off some blankets for the homeless. I'm thankful that I can do a little something for those who have nothing. The turkey has been brined. I'm not making...

Wednesday Chatting 11-27-13
Woke at 3 AM with a cold coming on. I wonder if my DH can fix our Thanksgiving dinner tomorrow? The rain and gloomy drizzle has finally ended. The sun came out yesterday. I picked some of my Meyer lemons. If it freezes tonight, as predicted, I may lose the rest of them. I hope everyone who went through...

Tuesday Chatter 11-26
Well, I'm up early...again...blech! I don't think my body ever changed with the time! Jackie G, from yesterday... I had read that fresh turkeys were in short supply this year because the growers were having trouble plumping them up. I wouldn't waste too much time looking for one. Makes...

Monday chit chat 11-25
Morning! So, this 5% humidity garbage is for the birds. My skin is going to be all shriveled up from lack of moisture by the time I'm done with this assignment. And my nose ugh! I am on a first name basis with saline spray. I can't even wear my contacts! There must be a happy medium somewhere...

TGIF Chat 11-22-13
The cold front is moving in. The temperature dropped from the 70's to 50's. They say we'll keep dropping in temp and it's started to rain very lightly. We need the rain so I hope it happens. Lots of traffic accidents because people can't factor in the wet pavement. There was a walking...

Just another Manic Monday! 11-18-13 (Callie)
*(chuckle*) I'm remembering the fit we all had when the last board came up that we didn't know *who* had done a post so a lot of us decided to put our names after a post title and obviously I"m still doing it LOL. I survived the weekend -- I still can't sit long but I seem to be building...

Video from Agility Nationals
Here's one of our runs from the National Trials. There were lots of dogs there. I believe one class had close to 1300. As far as the Team Tournament there were about 110 teams. That is 3 people and their dogs that make up one team. We started out in 40th place after two runs and then went to 60th...
