I am saddened to see Halloween decorations and candy in the stores already. It seems to get earlier every year.
However, today I received a catalog of Christmas party invitations -- that is just depressing.
Not that I am against parties, but come on -- it is Labor Day Weekend.
Speaking of that - did I tell you I am off for 4 days? Yippee! I can't believe you didn't hear me squeal.

It's that Time of Year Again
New television shows are coming out and old ones are starting new seasons. Which ones have you seen previews of that sparked your interest? Which ones do you think you will start watching? Which old shows coming back are you excited to watch again?
I have questions folks. Let's start our own list of tv reviews right here.
I am looking forward to Big Bang Theory and 2 1/2 Men for sure. Medium is also on that list. New shows that look interesting is The Big C and the cop show Memphis-something with the guy with My Name is Earl. I'll give that a try.
Of course we never watch live televisions. We always DVR everything and then watch it later at our convenience. Who wants to watch commercials on a nice big screen television?

Ick!
There are things that by their self sound wonderful to me:
- massage
- beach chair
- gourmet meal
- snowy day
- margarita
However, there are also things that make me immediately uncomfortable:
- doghouse
- heated mattress pads
- diaper
- nursing homes
- liquid medicine
What can I say? I know myself well.
What about you? Share your likes and dislikes. We won't judge.

Prayers
I have also been working with Cady on saying her prayers. Cause God knows if there is a dog that needs a little forgiveness - it is her.
She isn't as smooth as this dog is, but we are getting there. She'll put her paws on the bench and rest her head on it. We're still working on bending the head down without removing the paws - plus that whole "where is the treat" obsession.

I'm So Out of the Loop
I confess. The first time I saw blac label clothing I was sure it was a misspelled knock-off.
What can I say? I'm no fashionista and have never confessed to be one.
Now, if you want to talk about dogs I can impart wisdom. If you want to talk about taxonomy - surprise surprise, I can now dialogue with the geekiest of them all. If you want to talk about food - well, need I say more?

Slow Death
I've been working with Cady on tricks lately. We have the "stick-em up" down good. I point the gun (fingers) and she goes to her hind legs and front paws up. Then I say "bang" and she goes into down and eventually lays over to her side. What we haven't mastered is the need to keep her eyes on the treat. This clip is interesting and helpful.
Size Matters After All
I recently bought a new laptop and I'm very pleased with my choice. However when shopping, there seemed to be quite the market for these small netbooks. If I traveled with my laptop a lot, I might be more interested, but I think the keyboards on normal laptops are small enough - I can't imagine typing for very long on one of those.
My husband's work computer is a laptop and it is huge. And heavy. I can't imagine maneuvering that day in and day out. But he is a programmer and needs one with plenty of power and an easy to use keyboard.
He would be proud that I said his laptop was huge. (hee hee)

Puppies at Play
When we went to the dog park recently, I took my Flip camera and got some great footage of not only our dogs but all the dogs at play. It was a busy night and the sprinkler was very popular.
If you look close, you can see our 3-legged dog running like the wind. It starts at 1:05 in and he's the gray shaggy dog.
Enjoy!

Feeling Blessed
So many of my friends are without employment and some have went beyond the severance time period where not only do they lose their income, but also their health insurance. That has to be scary. One time in my adult life I was without health insurance - for only 6 months - and it was frightening.
The cost of purchasing your own short term health insurance NC or extending Cobra payments is unreal.
As frustrated as I may on particular days, I do feel blessed to have a job and benefits.

Eat Lots of Sweet Potatoes
I thought this was very interesting and educational, plus a little funny. We all know fruits and vegetables are good for us, but it is interesting to learn exactly how. Thanks for sharing it with me Billy.
It's been said that God first separated the salt water from the fresh, made dry land, planted a garden, made animals and fish... all before making a human. He made and provided what we'd need before we were born. These are best & more powerful when eaten raw. We're such slow learners.
God left us a great clue as to what foods help what part of our body. God's pharmacy is amazing.
A sliced carrot looks like the human eye. The pupil, iris and radiating lines look just like the human eye... And yes, science now shows carrots greatly enhance blood flow to and function of the eyes.
A tomato has four chambers and is red. The heart has four chambers and is red. All of the research shows tomatoes are loaded with lycopine and are indeed pure heart and blood food.
Grapes hang in a cluster that has the shape of the heart. Each grape looks like a blood cell and all of the research today shows grapes are also profound heart and blood vitalizing food.
A walnut looks like a little brain, a left and right hemisphere, upper cerebrums and lower cerebellums. Even the wrinkles or folds on the nut are just like the neo-cortex. We now know walnuts help develop more than three (3) dozen neuron-transmitters for brain function.
Kidney beans actually heal and help maintain kidney function and yes, they look exactly like the human kidneys.
Celery, bok choy, rhubarb and many more look just like bones. These foods specifically target bone strength. Bones are 23% sodium and these foods are 23% sodium. If you don't have enough sodium in your diet, the body pulls it from the bones, thus making them weak. These foods replenish the skeletal needs of the body.
Avocados, eggplant and pears target the health and function of the womb and cervix of the female - they look just like these organs. Today's research shows that when a woman eats one avocado a week, it balances hormones, sheds unwanted birth weight, and prevents cervical cancers. And how profound is this? It takes exactly nine (9) months to grow an avocado from blossom to ripened fruit. There are over 14,000 photolytic chemical constituents of nutrition in each one of these foods (modern science has only studied and named about 141 of them).
Figs are full of seeds and hang in twos when they grow. Figs increase the mobility of male sperm and increase the numbers of Sperm as well to overcome male sterility.
Sweet Potatoes look like the pancreas and actually balance the glycemic index of diabetics.
Olives assist the health and function of the ovaries.
Oranges, grapefruits, and other citrus fruits look just like the mammary glands of the female and actually assist the health of the breasts and the movement of lymph in and out of the breasts.
Onions look like the body's cells. Today's research shows onions help clear waste materials from all of the body cells. They even produce tears which wash the epithelial layers of the eyes. A working companion, Garlic, also helps eliminate waste materials and dangerous free radicals from the body.
