Rottweilers. Computers. Cameras. World Domination. Not necessarily in that order.
The chrysanthemums came back a little later than last year and I think they will be leaving a little later as well.
What we thought was “just a few” green onions added to the pot ended up choking out quite a lot of the chrysanthemums. We weren’t sure they would even be back. And in fact, none of the white ones returned. But the purple ones powered through and prevailed.

In time or so I’m told
I’m just another soul for sale, oh well
The page is out of print, we are not permanent
We’re temporary, temporary
Same old story*
I’m still not sure what to do within this space. I don’t have all that much to share these days, good or bad. The Rottweilers are fine and they even have a brand new laptop to eat. The rest of the family is fine as well.
Some stories that I might otherwise want to discuss are not really mine to tell, and I’ll leave it up to the main characters to decide when and where to tell those stories. I’m also trying to figure out what and how much I can share about some online classes I’ve been taking without violating anyone’s intellectual property rights.
I’d like to indulge in a little gratuitous self-promotion. As soon as I can figure out a tasteful way to do so, I’ll be back to do it.
Despite the Rottweilers in the title, I’m not sure we belong in the pet blogging genre or community any longer. We’re training “lightly” these days and neither dog is competing regularly in any venue at the moment, so I don’t have as much pet-related content as I did in the past.
So much that I don’t know.
What I do know is that I’d like to wish a wonderful 2012 to all of you who have stopped by to visit. If you had a great 2011, may 2012 be even better. If, like me, you had a 2011 that you’re saying “good riddance” to, may 2012 be its polar opposite!

…do you ever have a day or two when it’s almost midnight and way past time to sleep, and you really have nothing at all to say, but you have to write something just to keep the post-a-day thing going?
Well, this is one of those days. Check back for actual content tomorrow!

Well, they’re not quite gone yet. Our chrysanthemums made their first appearance again right on schedule in early October, but their time of glory is starting to come to an end.
The beginning…
I have a strange fascination with the whole idea of perennials. Going dormant underground to survive a harsh winter and coming back around to life only for the best season of the year — fall — seems very cool to me. I’m also intrigued by the fact that they’ve changed their color mix over the years. They started out as an almost equal mix of pink-purple and white blooms. But this year there were no white blooms at all.
The end…
Still so pretty but you can see the older blooms starting to wither away.

I seem to be missing a whole month here. I don’t think I had much going on that would be exciting to anyone but me anyway. I never did post the missing stuff from April since sometimes, timeliness does matter.
Since I was last here, Axe got his TT, I switched from BlackBerry to Android, and other even less-exciting things happened.
But I’m writing this with WordPress for Android just to stay within my zone!
