I’m actually working from home today, but I felt like posting some photos from the weekend. So, here I am posting photos (and STILL waiting for Sears to show up for the air conditioner… sometime between the helpful hours of 8AM and 4PM…)

Not the best photo, but it was all I could do to try and get the landscape in with us. This is at a rest stop on the I-87 in upstate NY.

They weren’t this concerned looking for the entire trip, I think it was just the camera that caught them off guard. Both Annie and Jinx traveled VERY well.

This pretty much sums up the weekend. Heh. This cute little thing is Eve, however they all called her Evil and I don’t know why. She was the sweetest thing ever. If I showed dogs I would have bought her in a second. Sweetest puppy ever.

This is a flipped photo, since Rosie was looking up at me while I was holding her. So the photo is actually taken upside down. Rosie is feisty, but looks pretty dopey in this shot.
She has beautiful colouring!

On the way home… self portrait with dogs…

Jinx would turn away at the last second. *mutter**grumble*

Things that would have been nice to have had on my trip:
- my bra
- my belt
- my rings (wedding ring excluded as I had that one on already)
I used a dog leash to keep my Capri’s up during the dog show on Saturday. I can be creative when I have to.
At least I remembered the dogs, huh?

We will certainly find out tomorrow. Hoo boy!

We’re off to the 2008 Finnish Lapphund National Specialty in Auburn, MA! I am very excited to see my friend Linda again and the fact that we will be surrounded by lots and lots of lovely Lappies! Annie and Jinx will only be spectators and not actually shown, but hey! It’ll be the first time Jinx will be around more than just one Lappie since he was 4 months old!
I shall be internet-less (*sob*) for the next three days. I’ll catch you all on Monday!
*PS – Look, Tez! My backyard actually has GRASS in it and no snow! Woo!

Due to the fact that the BBQ made us some tasty hamburgers tonight for dinner, I might rethink my suspicion of it. After all, it did get a taste of me yesterday, it might like it! But tonight’s dinner turned out great and the appliance worked very well. I can’t wait to make breakfast on it soon! (It has a plate thingy that I can do that on!)
Because I am pathetic, I have documented out first cookout on the BBQ. *sheepish grin*




Dinner’s ready! Let’s eat!

When we bought our 250lb-finger-eating BBQ yesterday I had some time to wander around the store as it was delivered from the back of the store to our car. I headed right for the shoe section in Zellers because I knew if I wanted spiffy rubber boots that’s the place to go! And voila!

Straight out of the kid’s section, size 4. Wheee! (I don’t know if I am happier about fitting into kids shoes or that they are black with polka dots…) As a girl who is constantly plagued by the paranoia that her feet look too big, this is a terrific moment in my life.
Also, while I was outside enjoying the sun and quiet of the early morning (until the stupid kids next door came into their backyard) I took some dog shots. Because my blog is incomplete without gratuitous Finnish Lapphund shots, right?


Am I not just completely adorable?

Sunbathing.
