Has it really been a year?

I realized a week or so that it had been a year since I've last posted. Wow. How can that be?

Besides, Lora told me I had to start blogging again.

When I started this blog life was tough, really tough. I wrote to get through it. Then life got tougher and I could no longer bear to write anything, afraid that the world would see my anguish through my words. There's a limit to what I'm willing to share, and the devastation I was feeling was too much to share with anyone. I just tried to slog through it all... tried to survive.

I did it. Survive, that is. So now I've got a new job, and I feel like I finally have my life back. This is a Very. Good. Thing.

I think there's some sort of blogging rule that says you have to blog about a certain subject matter. Well, I've never really stuck to that rule very well, but somewhere along the line I thought I needed to. As a result I got stuck because the only things I felt like writing about didn't have to do with the dogs, and this is a dog blog, yes? Meh... self-imposed drivel blah blah blah.

So. Back to it for me. I'm going to write about whatever it is I want to write about. So there.

With my new job I get to travel some. Since May I've been to Geneva, Switzerland, Oshkosh, Wisconsin, and now Las Vegas, Nevada. As can be imagined I've had many adventures, so I think I'll write about them too.

Oh, and I got to set sheep on the Nursery field at this year's National Sheepdog Finals. Good fun!

So there is a lot to catch up on, eh?
