Doggie Times

Ok, what to post about? This has been such doggie times for us I have to put up a few pictures. We are watching these two lovely Cocker Spaniels for 10 days. Abbey a 6 year old sweetie and Jordan who is 14 and so sweet. I told my family I want to be like Jordan when I am old. He can barely see and hear but is so sweet and kind and patient. That is a good goal!

Ok, following are some things overheard in the Kelly house the past week and then some random pictures. If you don't care much about dogs, you can skip this! But this is our house as of late.

All I need now are pictures of all the contractors giving quotes, doing work etc. lol
Do you think the Eastwoods would mind if we kept Abbey and Jordan?







Jordan, you are such a good boy.




Boomer, you are such a pig!







We need to get Jordan to teach Ralphie some manners.




Abbey is the most agreeable dog I have ever known.





Want to go Potty? Potty??




Come on, Jordan! Over here, Jordan! Come on Jordan!


(while waving arm in a semi circle to direct)









Come on doggies! Follow me!

(A trail fof 4 dogs ensues...)



Are you hungry? Come on, you can eat! Are you hungry?

(to Abbey and Jordan)





You are such pigs!


(to Boomer and Ralph)






Abbey, get the squirrel!!




Where is Jordan's bed?

(we move it to the room he wants to be in)


What is Abbey chewing? Oh Abbey!







Yes, there is enough room for Abbey on the couch.. come on up!




Abbey! Time for bed!









Who wants some puppy love?
(while sitting on the floor and soon am enveloped with 4 sweet canines)




Ralph!! Quit barking!!!





Where's Jordan? Oh in here. He is looking for us. We should train
Ralhpie to be his seeing and hearing eye-dog!

Another Quote

I am enjoying hearing the wit and wisdom of Abraham Lincoln. This quote just cracked me up. One thing Lincoln had to bear was inept generals in the Civil War. He went through many of them, often they would fail to move, and not act. He got very frustrated. Don't know if that is what prompted this quote, but it may have.

I liked it.


January, 1863
The hen is the wisest of all the animal creation because she never cackles until after the egg has been laid.

Authenticity. That would have to be my theme at present. To enjoy my family, be true to ourselves and our faith and be authentic and enthusiastic about life!

I love Dog Day Afternoons...
"What children need is not new and better curricula but access to more and more of the real world; plenty of time and space to think over their experiences, and to use fantasy and play to make meaning out of them; and advice, road maps, guidebooks, to make it easier for them to get where they want to go (not where we think they ought to go), and to find out what they want to find out." [from Teach Your Own by John Holt.]
