Blogging, puppies and blah, blah, blah

So, I've been thinking of my goals for my blog. I love to hear myself talk, so I thought blogging  would be a good outlet. I also wanted to share my insights and experiences, with marriage, child rearing, work, knitting , writing and any number of other things.
Then I got to thinking. "Will anyone want to read my thoughts and opinions?" I know some of my friends and family will, but what about people in general. Then I went looking through the different blogs that I have recently subscribed to and viewed lately. The subjects are varied and the opinions are not always what I would agree with, but the comments are interesting and it is always fun to see a little window into what other people are doing.

So, the blog continues.

I apologize in advance for boring you with my mundane life, but I hope my forays into wiring adventure, knitting projects and puppy raising, kid raising excitement will at the very least entertain you.

Our newest family member, Stormy, a 12 week old Weimaraner puppy has been growing like crazy and making us all crazy with her curiosity. She is doing pretty well with paper training and even has gone outdoors with the other dogs, but with the Minnesota winters, we've been mostly working on paper training for her. We've all forgotten how similar babies and puppies are. They need so much attention and tending. Our older dogs, Nessa and Bella, are doing well with the adjustment. I was worried about Nessa, as she is a bit aggressive. She was very good with Stormy and has basically taken on the role of the big sister. Bella, our older pug, mostly tolerates her, but has occasionally roused herself enough to play a little, a very rare occurrence for Bella. Nessa has been trying to get Bella to play for years.
The cats are the only casualties. The two brothers, Pete and Smokey have moved to the basement to avoid the rambunctious puppy. My old man, Pancho, still hangs out under the dining room table and uses the strength of his grumpiness to chase her away most times.
She is training us as we are training her.  Of course , your own experiences with puppy training are always welcome, so we can benefit from the knowledge of each others.

Finally Friday

Well, a crazy week came to a crazy end. Calls that lasted 20 minutes or more are not what I wanted to have when I started work this morning.  Gotta get my rhythm next week.

Plan to do up a new polish this weekend and work on some more of the blanket I am knitting. The main chore this weekend is going grocery shopping.

What is is about grocery shopping that feels so daunting?  I guess it is the fact that after spending several hours gathering all the items you have to bring them home and put them away.   That is when I wish I could be like Samantha from Bewitched and wiggle my nose, or blink things away, like Jeannie from I Dream of Jeannie. What magic power do you want to have?
