I’m going to experiment with posting on this blog Monday through Friday, every week in September and thought I would give you a little preview of my plans. I’m going to begin a photo a week project called 52 Pick-Up, inspired by my friend, Angie of Jumping Jack Designs. Angie has been participating in a… Continue Reading

OM :: The Summer Camp Boy
It’s the last day of summer camp for both my boys today and I’m just a bit wistful. My 7, soon to be 8, year-old thrives at camp. He comes home happy (and dirty) every night, excited to tell us all of the happenings for the day. He has always had a certain charm about… Continue Reading
Dog Noses
Dog photography fascinates and enthralls me. Images of all kinds of dogs, in all kinds of actions and inactions, leave me wanting more. In looking to share some images today, I was overwhelmed by noses. I hope you are too (in a good way.) preoccupied— my hand fills with dog nose ~Anna Tambour haiku used… Continue Reading
Summer in Black and White
This summer, part of my focus has been on a new found love — canning. It hasn’t manifested in the traditional sense. After creating paper goods for the people who “put up” (you can read about how that came about here), I’ve had a few experiences canning my own food from our CSA. While I’m… Continue Reading
Dogs Without Blogs :: Corbin
I have a love affair with breaking the rules. Rules I’ve created, mind you. I should probably change the name of this feature, so I can stop making disclaimers on all these great bloggy dogs. Anyway, here’s another rule breaker to love… Corbin, the American Mutt extraordinaire. He speaks for himself. Dog Questions What is… Continue Reading
Happy New Year
I know… This greeting sounds odd to some ears, but soon it will be the Jewish New Year. The Hebrew calendar follows the lunar year (354 days), as opposed to the solar year (365 days.) A more thorough explanation is here, if you’re interested. This Lunar Year seems to be going faster then most because… Continue Reading
OM :: The Practicality of a Dream
How do craft a dream into practicality? There are so many different components to achieving a dream that it may seem insurmountable. But, if you break those components down into manageable tasks, you can make those steps toward your goal. This week, I was pushed (in a good way) toward one of my dreams. I… Continue Reading
Can’t Wait for School!
I’m a bit cranky lately about summer. From my last post, you know these humans are just running around doing all kinds of activities and they have to leave me home for some of them. [Again, what is UP with that? I behave better than some humans I know. I would be fine in any… Continue Reading
44 x 44 :: Calling It
This is my last post for 44 x 44, ’cause I’m calling it early. If you’re reading this for the first time, you can reference what this is about here. I have mixed feelings about the whole process. I wouldn’t qualify it as a success or a failure. I’m disappointed, but not because I haven’t… Continue Reading
Kids and Fetch
Summer is busy and it seems the humans are always go, go, going somewhere. I travel with them when it’s a dog-friendly destination. (Why all destinations can’t be dog-friendly is a mystery to me.) But on occasion, they have to leave me home. They are considerate to make sure I’m comfortable or very comfortable (euphemisms… Continue Reading
