Well I think my first post should say something more unique than ‘Hello world!’ so edit it I shall! Hmm … wasn’t my first java program called ‘Hello world’? Things I would rather forget…
So my cousin Joe, country-turned-city cousin, turned me onto wordpress. It looked neat to me and I’ve always wanted to blog just for the sake of having somewhere to throw down random thoughts.
I am uploading a recent picture of our youngest lab, Maggie. She’s 7 months old. Nellie, her big sister, is just over 2 1/2 years old. Maggie’s a shit sometimes but how can you not love this face? We’re past the peeing-on-the-floor stage … thank ya ju-eee-zus … but she’s a chewer (aren’t all labs?) and loves to latch onto Nellie’s ear with no warning whatsoever. Watching the two of them fight … er, play … is sometimes like having front row seats to a good bare knuckle fight.
Some people say that the winter is a slow time. It is my busiest time of the year. I give piano lessons, go to choir practice, and curl (fun league only, thank you), most of which does not happen over the summer. I don’t seem to have enough time to tackle one hobby and yet it never fails: I get halfway through two things and then get a new idea for something completely different that grabs my attention. Last week it was renovating the bathroom downstairs. I’ll upload a pic when we’re done.
So there you go… my first post. I should actually work before someone questions what my paycheque is for.
I now understand what Furry Chocolates are.
I don’t like to think of myself so much “country-turned-city” as “urban/rural hermaphrodite”. I was born with all the parts.
Subtle difference, so I forgive you.
Maggie’s a doll…like dog, like master. Oh yeah, and you’re pretty cute, too. HA!
… from Switzerland – the mother country of chocolate
… not furry … very slow (=thoughtful) and calm (=peaceful) and shiny (dirtlessful) and cold (=winterful)
… and paychecks and business computer are there for you to communicate and stay in contact with other types of friends in this globalised world … and to show you are going to change it
I love the dogs
I love the mosaics
I want more music recommendations
I like the slang but do not understand everything
I understood you had birthday
Congratulations.
Hey Klaus… I’d be happy to educate you on Canadian slang! You just let me know which words/phrases and maybe that will be a separate post in itself!
