I know I wrote about taking these photos awhile back. It has taken awhile to edit them as well. After that, I just forgot about them. I took nearly 600 photos. My shutter will continually take photos if I hold the button, so it’s easy to get a lot of photos–most of which look identical. I know Ricardo was looking forward to seeing these. The man whose picture I took has only seen one photo…and not the ones posted here.

Ana’s granite memorial showed up yesterday. Here’s what it looks like. I’m still sad she’s gone.

It’s on a 6×10x2 inch slab of granite. They did an excellent job at an excellent price. If you are interested in granite or marble memorials with photos they are the place to go. You can see the other items they have created at their website:  www.imagesonmarble.com. They do just about anything on marble and granite, but mostly have pet memorials. This memorial would have cost me about $150 elsewhere. It was around $75 with shipping.

He’s now 12 weeks old. Jasper has nearly lived here a month. I recently got a dog training book from the AKC. I’m glad I didn’t know some of the things in the book. Jasper has been able to “sit” on command for at least 2 weeks. He’s nearly housebroken. I can’t trust him alone in the house yet, but it’s coming. He heels a little. He knows “down.” He just learned that one 2 dyas ago. Once he gets a command and gets rewarded, he remembers and does it again. I don’t have to teach him over and over–just reinforce the training. He doesn’t really “come” though. He will often return to his crate. He’s known “crate” for about 3 weeks. And of course, he knows “no,” “stop,” and “off.”

I have some great photos (great camera) of my pets, so I’m looking into creating holiday cards with my pets.

That sunburn I wrote about earlier in the week blistered on Wednesday night. Now how a burn blisters 4 days later puzzles me. I expected there to be blisters within 24 hours or no blisters. But no. Now I’m peeling skin in sheets. I have the hula and Tahitian dance show on Saturday (tomorrow). Luckily, I’m probably far enough away from the audience that the peeling skin won’t be noticeable. Did I mention that it itches like crazy?
