T Still Doing Fine - Page 2

BTW Hexe,
Its only been 2 weeks since this company went office-less and we all hate Skype.  Add the GPS locating capability of our company-issued Sprint cell phones and MiFi (read: ankle bracelets, accurate to about 10') and the uber-poor coverage we have most places, and our employer is facing a mega-revolt within the sales force.
Remarkable how easily the batteries fall out of that equipment... never does that with our own personal stuff though. One of these days our manager is going to hear calls coming into the back seat of his car every time he dials one of us, cuz all our equipt is in a bag in HIS car.

I may be out a bit further north in August, trying to hash out the details of a visit to Portland to see my son, but sadly I only have about 5 days to play with & a super tight schedule already. NEXT summer I'm planning on renting an RV & making the trip with my dogs & maybe my husband, (I'll have to tie him up in chains & drag him along, heh-heh, the stick-in-the-mud!)
so that'll be a better opportunity!
But I'm glad you're happy & safe, that's all that matters!

HEy Ladies (and gents)

I have plenty of space for an RV AND hookups. Several of them in fact. It would be great to see you and Carl, Jackie, and BECKETT! YR, it would be my pleasure to show ya'll around northern California. Plenty of room here at the inn. ;-) I don't have a recent pic of myself and T, but I'll try to get one next time someone comes out and I have clean clothes and make-up on. :-) I haven't seen or heard from Rita or Adrian in 5-6 years. Woodside is about 3 hours from here, on a good day, but when I finally make that bucket-list run over to the beach and the Bay Area I'll try to meet up with them.

By fall I hope to have the place landscaped with lawns and some nice outdoor furniture and more shade. Its a long, slow process, starting over with nearly nothing on a tight budget, in a place that hasn't been lived in in 3+ years, but the whole inside of the house is brand new: doors, windows, floors, kitchen, bathrooms... everything. There is no high-speed internet in this area, no cable just satellite TV, but my Verizon MiFi works ok most of the time. I think that's the phone line laying in pieces about a third of the way down the 1/2 mile driveway. LOL Who needs a land line anymore anyway?

I am not involved in dog sport right now, just doing some tracking workshops with the odd person wanting to resolve the odd issue or start a youngster, and for fun with Bijou. My work schedule and the distance to the nearest club that accepts new members just isn't condusive to a regualr training regime. Perhaps when/if I start my own business I will be able to get away more, that's a ways off so for now I'll just focus on helping out rescues when I can, fostering, training, providing layover for transport.
The sport will still be there when I get back to it.

I am so glad to hear that you are doing well!  Glad to see the old guy doing so well also.

My job is very stressful, high-pressure for little pay, but the rest of my life is VERY good now. This house is plenty large for one person, 3/1.5, huge living/dining room,  My only neighbor is a sheriff's deputy about 100 yds. back up 1/4 mile long driveway, (I'm at the dead end) nothing but orchards (45 acres) on all 4 sides and a nice, clean canal around the whole place. The dogs and I are in heaven here. The view from every window is incredibly peaceful.

And one of the best things about it all? I finally have a place for my GSD Rescue efforts. I pulled the first sick little gal out of the Carson kill shelter in LA 10 days ago.

Shelley, I hope things continue to go well for you, and you are able to  enjoy a long, satisfying, stable and drama-free life from this point forward.  Sometimes it just takes a bit longer for some of us to stop trying to swim upstream...this being said by one who fought the current for far too long before wising up, too.

Very happy you and your dogs got a place of your own. Sounds like a dream come true for you.The dogs must be loving it. It's nice when you can open the doors and windows and breath fresh air. Keep going up Shelley, we knew you would get there.

Good to hear that you are doing well, Shelley. Hope it continues indefinitely.
