Not just Nika

Well, I suppose I should "close out" my Nika comments. She's doing good again. We'll keep her. We NEED to get more consistent in our training, but just the little changes we've made around here lately to REMIND her who's boss has really helped. Ahhhh, summertime! The weather's been nice, school's almost finished, and hubby and I have a new habit. As soon as dinner is over, we take the dog for a 1/2 hour walk while the kids clean the kitchen. I'm REALLY enjoying this new repast in our day. It is helping us stay more connected with the little details of life as well as connecting us at those deeper levels of "feelings" and emotions. I'm also looking forward to summer holidays!!! YIPPEEE. After much deliberation amongst our nuclear family, and the relatives, we have decided to go camping in Revelstoke with my sister and her family for three days this summer. And yes, we are taking the dog. (Oh boy, here we go again). Anyway, we're very excited and looking forward to a very relaxing, and fun, vacation. We are also looking forward to some special visits from out-of-towners. Both sets of our parents will be staying with us for a few days and that is ALWAYS a special, and cherished, time. Well, it's very late (surprise, surprise) and I'm off to bed. Will try to blog more this week.

I have many thoughts in my head I'd like to get onto "paper".

Good-night and God bless.
