I didn't even have breakfast yet LOL I'm starving, but there's nothing in the house, n I don't really feel like going anywhere... I'll go out for lunch or something in an hour.

It's 9:30 a.m. here in California, noon-thirty on the other coast ------- and Sunday daytime I have noticed is VERY silent on dog sites, when people are all out with dogs. It's the non-postingest time of the whole week.

For me, I am just get getting ready to take mine out. For you, the day is heading into evening!

And we had a time change last night, too..........
It is my experience as an online business owner and member of numerous business forums that the weekends are slow. When I started my business I thought the weekends would be the screaming busy because everyone is home on the weekends, but it has proven to be so not the case… In fact, traffic cuts in ¼ on the weekends. I guess a lot of people surf the web when they are at work and when they are home… they have lives. What a concept :eek:

By \"lives\" you mean......... not doing stuff and going places and seeing people (non-dog people)?? You just mean dogs PLUS a forum or two, right? (And the work we have to do to keep a roof over the computer?)
I don't mean to shock anyone... so close your eyes if this is too painful.

There are people (aliens I call them) that actually leave their houses and do strange things like shopping (brick and mortar)... family outings... and other stuff that does not involve work... computers or (cover your ears) dogs :eek:

Our kind... spend our weekends juggling between 6 browser windows open to several different forums... Google research and whatever else fits our fancy... but probably has something to do with dogs :|

PS... Connie... if you find anything out about dew claws let me know :D

I tried that today, it was pretty cool, you can go online to BestBuy.com and then go to a brick and mortar store to pick it up!! Oh, wait, that's still kinda geeky right? LOL. Well my boy got to come too n then went to subway with friends for lunch, I guess that kinda counts as having a life right? RIGHT? My weekends are generally busy, especially after 6pm.
Well I'm back from a day in Enkhuizen. IPO Wisselbeker competiton. Wasn't entering but watching. It was great fun and nice to see the familiar faces again of people I hadn't seen in a while. Great day out especially when it stopped raining and the sun came out :lol:
DWO wisseltrofee? Been there regulary, is my old region when I did IPO and lived in Noord Holland.


Ohwwww is that a normal life :eek: :eek:

Mike... don't fight it. :roll: You are \"one of us\". The sooner you come to terms with it the fewer internal conflicts you will have.

Just remember... you are not defined by your accomplishments. You are not defined by what others think of you. who cares as long as the dogs are happy. :lol:

Second place R.Scholten with gsd King Bahba v/d Marija's Hoeve 95,87, 96= Total 278.
