ANNIVERSARY
Twenty eight years ago today, John and I met. It was also a Tuesday. We have not been apart since. It was one of those 'our eyes met across a crowded room' things, a real case of love at first sight. It must have been because twenty eight years later, we are still in love.
JUDGING DOGS
To be passed by the Kennel Club to award the highest award available, the Challenge Certificate, is an honour. In so doing , one is being given the responsibility of choosing the dogs that are the closest fit to the Breed Standard and therefore also choosing those dogs one believes to be the best specimens to be used to produce the next generation.
To judge to any other criteria is an insult to oneself, those who have entered and most importantly to the breed. For a judge to give the high awards to friends, to lame dogs, and to judge according to the owner, shows a lack of respect for themselves, for the exhibitors and worst of all, for the breed.
They ought not to be judging. Their placings are worthless and those who won the highest awards are left knowing their dog did not win on merit.
SPOONS
I feel like I have run out of spoons already. I don't feel so hot today. I didn't the latter half of yesterday either. Sort of like I am coming down with something. I have felt this before and it amounted to nothing so hopefully this is not heralding a cold of flu.

Congratulations to both of you on achieving what many couples seek and yet fail. May you enjoy many more years together.
Aside: Your "twitter" has become very demanding when I open your web page. I wants me to sign in. (?) I haven't come across this before with other blogs.
Congratulations on your anniversary. I love these annual updates.
Oh, and what do you mean "lost our spoons?"
All the best for the next 28 years!!!!!
Well you teared me up talking about your anniversary. Congratulations, and here's to 28 more fabulous years!
I hope someday my John and I are saying the same things that your John and you are!
Congratulations to you both !

Happy Anniversary to you both!
Congratulations on your anniversary--I'm truly happy for you!!!
On another topic, I was going to tell you that I may ask you a few questions sometimes about checking "pedigrees" of breeds and such. We are facing the demise of our favorite pet, Little Baby, who is elderly and not doing so well. But previously to this, I had asked Brian for a "Ragdoll" cat, but he replied that I couldn't have one till... well... Little Baby is gone. That is a sad thought to me. But when we were talking about it, he asked how in the heck one checks that it would truly be a "Ragdoll" breed. Apparently the breed was invented only in 1987 or some such. And I know NOTHING of checking pet breeding....
Oh erk...I didn't mean to go off on tangent! Tell John I am happy for you both!!!!
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!!
and many many more!!!
Happy Anniversary! Congratulation to both you and John.
I was just @ a 50th anniv. party, & just amazed by all that this couple had gone thru together. I bet @ 28 yrs, you & John have your list too! Mart & I are @ 13 yrs next month. Congratulations on your anniversary! It says a lot about your strength, your faithfulness, your ability to trust & be trusted, & also to reach out in love & know also that you are loved. May you keep on enjoying life with each other!
