Truth Can Be Pretty Funny!
Because it’s the end of the week. And because I love to laugh. And because Cait has switched from bombarding me with Aussies rescue links to bombarding me with funny dog videos. Hallelujah!

I cannot tell a lie. I’m wavering. I’d initially wanted to wait at least a year before bringing another dog into my life. I’m blaming it all on my daughter, Cait.
She’s been having me look at Aussies in Rescue and Shelters for her. She’s thinking she wants a Mini Aussie with a tail. Specifically a Mini Aussie Blue Merle. This is the girl she has her heart set on. She’s also thinking smaller is better for apartment living.

Been an exciting day around here. For a lot of different reasons, least of all this one.
But I can always count on my daughter to make me laugh.… Read More
Spring cleaning turned up this photo from a long-forgotten box tucked far back in a closet. Two of my favorite girls in the world.
Hard to believe that one left the planet almost a decade ago. It seems like just yesterday we were running around a field chasing sheep. Me, in fits of laughter. She, annoyed that I wasn’t being more serious about holding up my end of the job. She was so good, there was really nothing for me … Read More
Yep, pretty true words from my Yoda daughter back when she was 4 years old. She’d randomly throw out one-liners that just cracked me up!
I have a box full of these scraps I wrote down from when she was little. I call them “Caity-isms.” Whenever I start taking life a little too seriously, I pull one of these out, have a good laugh, and get back to facing the day with the proper attitude.… Read More
In our family, it’s a tradition. Unless your present makes the present receiver cry, you didn’t find the perfect gift. Cait nailed this. She even had the artist include a dragonfly on Wink’s ear (which has special meaning for me). I blubbered like a baby.
To see the details close up, click on the photo.
Seriously, I think this might be the best, most thoughtful present I’ve ever received. I love the way the artist has combined nature into the … Read More
I’ve previously talked about Cait having serious puppy hunger. By the looks of it, it’s getting worse by the day! She just sent me this text. While I love Aussies to pieces, even I find this photo gulp-worthy.
This condition is called Vasovagal syncope which causes you to faint because your body overreacts to certain triggers, such as the sight of blood. It’s actually a hereditary condition she got from her father. He also faints at the sight of any blood.
Fortunately for Cait, she only faints at the sight of her own blood. She’s got no problem swimming in other people’s blood.
Good thing for her, since she’s currently scribing at a couple of Emergency Departments.… Read More
