Obedience class blues

By -


You know every time I think Cricket and I are doing well with training, we go to class and well, we have a long way to go.
I think you can't expect too much after just 3 classes. (don't make excuses for your dog, our old trainer Gee would say!)
I think I had acid indigestion, no I know I had it, last night on the car ride home. The positives are: he got better as class went on instead of worse this time.

Knit to relax, knit to relax, knit to relax

Just when Cricket thought a tennis ball couldnt be more fun, someone shows up at the dog park with an orange tennis ball.....that squeeks. He was actually getting possesive over it and it wasn't even his.

KNit to relax, knit to relax, knit to relax

I'm off for a stretch from work. I've had a busy start to my time off; hoping to find some more knit time soon!

Are you knitting to relax????

:)

I talk more in the comments!

I most definately knit to relax, after a long day of work or when take a break from studying!

I wish I could get enough time to do some relaxing knitting but this week has had me tied in knots! Work and home have both caused great anxiety and I'm looking forward to a relaxing weekend with lots of knitting and wish the same for you.

BTW Cricket will come around. We are finding that puppy Max is getting tired of being a renegade. Now he enjoys copying Macy's good manners. I have it! Maybe what you need is a second dog. LOL!!

If this is a second comment, please delete it, but I got an error message last time.

I've been spinning, because life is too complicated to knit right now. I'm hoping this weekend will fix that.

I'm also sure you and Cricket will work through this. They have rough teenage years too, sometimes...

Is this a trick question? I knit relaxed or not so I can't really tell the difference anymore.

Every Once in a While I Might Post

 Is that vague enough for you?  It has been a too busy complicated Spring.  I had no energy to blog.  All is well now, so I can share some things with you:   1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa.  Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures.  2. I did not see one shooting star last night.  I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m.  The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones.   3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch?  On the same day.  Tis true.  4. What have I knitted lately?  I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit.  I ripped out a shawl that I was making up.  It was cotton and pretty.  I need to follow a pattern.  5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead.  I haven't worked a thumb in a long time.  I may have to frog it too.  So I ha...

Dear buddy nurse and spay neuter pal Linda, came to visit yesterday.  We knitted. We laughed.  We shared books we are reading. She Showed me her scarf.  It looks like a shawl but it is a scarf. Here is her yarn choice. And the( OUCH) price.   It makes her happy to knit.  If Linda's happy I'm happy.  I dont' know the pattern and neither does she.  Her dog literally shredded her pattern.  She was at a point where she had memorized the easy part and she's nearly finished.  So there you go, anyone know the pattern? You are all so sweet about the move and the house. This morning I got my cuppa joe and headed to the porch to write you.  In the distance, my nearest neighbor, whom I can see through some trees.... well one of their teens came out, stretched, peed on their lawn casually, and then laid in his hammock for 5 minutes.  I'm sure he's not the first boy to do this.  I'm not even sure he's the...
