I think 2014's Turner Classic Movie's Remembers was one of the best they have done. This is their annual tribute piece to all the actors, actresses, directors, cinematographers, producers, etc., who have passed in that year. Using Kodaline's "All I Want" certainly added to the poignancy of this year's tribute. Kodaline, from Ireland, is my new favorite group too. For me, the most touching moments were: hearing Humphrey Bogart saying, "I'll be waiting" to Lauren Bacall's character; seeing James Garner walking alone down the road in a scene from Grand Prix; and at the end when Shirley Temple sings a line from Auld Lang Syne. From the comments on You Tube, I wasn't alone in crying when that came on. I'm a huge fan of old movies and Turner is most often the channel my TV is set to--either that or HGTV and sometimes PBS. As far as I'm concerned the movies of the 1930s and the 1940s were the best and the stars of that era were the brightest. With a few exceptions, we will never see their like again.<br />

Today is my dad's 92nd birthday!! He's been having trouble thinking that he is that old. He suggests 84? 60? Well that would make you younger than me, so that's not going to fly!! I kind of know where he's coming from. I'm having trouble believing that I am as old as I am!!<br />
<br />
Today wasn't such a good day for him--you can see it in the pictures. He's got a bit of a cold--in fact most of the residents do. But that's how things are. Some days are great, others not so great. Yesterday he was in much better spirits. He's eating fine though, and enjoyed the chocolate cake and the flowers, so that's pretty good. I'm very glad he's still here. Happy Birthday Father!! ♥♥<br />

Lanny is good natured, eager to please, wants to play and play and play and run and run and run. Life is a party as far as Lanny is concerned. He's never met a stick he didn't like!! And in that great cosmic plan that seems to unfold even if we don't understand it a lot of the time, he came into our lives, I inherited my grandparents' farm, and voila, Lanny became the consummate farm dog. He has farm smarts, he's machinery savvy, he checks in all the time, and he can be trusted in a way Duffy can never be trusted out on the farm. He knows the friends and doesn't bark, but let a stranger even stop on the highway or turn around in the driveway, and Lanny will let us know.<br />
<br />
Many thanks to Ray Lavelle of Erte Collies for entrusting this big bundle of love to us!!</div>

Happy, Happy Birthday Lanny my big tri boy!! Love you always!!♥♥ </div>

Two sick dogs, exhaustion from sleep being broken up every 2 hours either due to letting a dog out or my nose relentlessly dripping and attacks of sneezing, allergies from hell because of smoke from forest fires and from grasses and what not, mosquitoes that are on the rampage, and a humidity that is oppressive to say the least...that's August. How's yours going? Humidity comparison: this morning the humidity in Tampa, Florida is 79% in a thunder shower, New Orleans has a 58% humidity. Here in Edmonton at 10:30 our humidity is 80% and we are expecting a high of 30' C so that should push the humidex temperature to 35' C. Fun!!<br />
<br />
How about some happy pictures to offset the yucky stuff?<br />

In fact it's almost over, so I better get my all encompassing tragically long post of the month done before it's too late! June actually began by dripping all over and it sounds like it might end that way, but in between we've had some reasonable summer weather and not too much rain--for a change. South of here they have had scads of rain and flooding--not as bad as last year but still way too much at one time especially with the spring run-off from the mountains happening at this time of year. Let's hope things turn around for those areas of the province.<br />
<br />
This time last year I was on a down hill skid of increasing stress and ill health. Like I said on Facebook, I don't think anyone realized how sick I really was. Heck, I didn't realize realize how sick I really was. I kept plodding along trying to get stuff done when I could, feeling awful more and more of the time, stressed by the aftermath of my uncle's death, and dealing with symptoms of hyperthyroidism that made me feel miserable and made life miserable. Read about hyperthyroidism and its symptoms: <a href="http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/hyperthyroidism/basics/symptoms/CON-20020986">http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/hyperthyroidism/basics/symptoms/CON-20020986</a><br />
<br />
Note things like irritability, tremor in the hands, racing heart--not fun. I was so angry so much of the time--mind you I had some really good reasons to be angry, but I was so easily irritated. I became more easily out of breath all the time, overwhelmed by everything, worn out, tired, coughing through the night so no sleep, suffered from fluid retention to a huge degree, and finally ended up in the hospital in October with what was either a thyroid storm or pretty close to it and a diagnosis of possible Grave's Disease, an autoimmune hyperthyroid disorder. Here's a picture of what my legs looked like in August:<br />

Notice how swollen the legs and the ankles are--that's not a good sign re the heart. I also broke out in that rash. Not a fun summer or fall . I was criticized and chastised for some of the choices I made last year, and I'm not referring just to my health. But none of these people understood what I was going through. The saying "Walk a mile in the other person's shoes before you judge" is a good thing to remember. I made the best decisions that I could at the time, no one was hurt, no one was neglected, unloved, or not cared for. I do wish I had started this proper homeopathy a lot sooner, would have made things easier for all. A year has gone by since the worst started--my heart rate is still on the high side, I still have shortness of breath at times, and it may be a long time before I can take agility classes with my dogs. I'm thinking of having some one train and handle them, especially Lanny. I am working with a combo of allopathic meds that I don't have bad reactions to and a competent homeopath. In fact the dogs and I are under the homeopath's care and have been for almost 5 months. Duffy is finally, after almost 6 years, having consistently solid poops, Lanny's focus has improved immensely, and I have energy and vitality again, and I'm enjoying my life. I'm also making the conscious effort to push aside the negative and ignore things that people do or say that are ill-informed or hurtful. I know that I am a woman with more than an average intelligence and ability to make the best decisions possible for any set of circumstances. I've weathered a great deal last year, not just with my own health, etc. and I am stronger for it.<br />

Lanny was 18 months old on May 13!! He's such a big boy, I have to remind myself that he's still a puppy with lots of maturing and filling out to do!! We were all out at the farm on Sunday, Mother's Day. After a trip to the cemetery to clean up the graves and refresh the flowers, I wanted to get some photos of the dogs and especially of Lanny as his 18th month BD was coming up. It was a pretty nice day, until the wind swung into action around noon!! But that's par for the course these days!!<br />

Yesterday, May 6, was our 25th Wedding Anniversary--the Silver Anniversary!!</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Weather wise, it wasn't a sit out on the patio and sip wine kind of day!!There was a cold northern wind blowing, some snow, then rain, and then some sun--in other words a typical day in Alberta--apparently for 8 months of the year now!! We went out for a very nice supper at Joeys on Jasper, then home to sample the Canadian Ice Wine that Dave had bought a couple of years ago and that we had decided to save for our 25th anniversary. I found Canadian Ice Wine dark chocolate truffles at Purdey's--the woman there made up those cute little silver boxes for our special occasion. The wine--well I guess ice wine is supposed to be consumed closer to the purchase date? It was supposed to be white wine, but had turned a claret color and tasted like claret or port!! Not unpleasant, still quite fruity, but not what I had expected. A little went a long way!! We had a lovely day, with lots of laughs and that's one of the most enduring qualities about our relationship--the friendship and the sense of fun and humor. Here's to as many more years together that the Creator will grant us!! ♥♥</div>

I can't believe we are at Duffy's 6th birthday already!! I don't want him to age any more than this--or at least not for a long time. It was a rainy, snowy day all day and not a fitting day for going out and taking birthday pictures. So I contented myself with grooming Lanny and Duffy, and taking a few shots here and there in the house.<br />

Dave was finally able to get some of my fruit trees pruned today--2 cherry and one apple were done. This still leave a big apple tree , a smaller tree, and maybe the lilacs and saskatoon tree. But maybe just the apple trees. He's going to fix my cousin's air seeder first though. There were lots of brush piles around the yard and then the wood chipper made short work of most of it. The 2 big apple trees are old and parts are dying, so they were cut off--that wood is really hard and doesn't go through the chipper. The neighbor gets the log sized pieces and the bigger branches of dead wood for his fireplace. We had 2 helpers--well maybe more like supervisors!! Lanny was right there beside us, except when the power saw fired up and he backed right away. He's got excellent machine and vehicle smarts--stays back of dangerous things. That makes for a really good farm dog. Duffy is reactive to a lot of noisy machines and that can make him get too close to them. And that's not good!!<br />
Then we had supper from Lan's--our most favorite restaurant--and it's only 4 blocks away!! It's a SE Asian fusion place. Delicious salad rolls and my fave Red Curry Chicken Stew!! Yum!! A busy and productive day outside, ending with great food!! Who could ask for more???!!<br />

I can't believe that it's been over a month since I had my little holiday in Camrose--I loved it!! I need another one, like right now!! I had so much fun and Jolene and I had a chance to spend lots of time together, along with her dogs, and her sister. Lots of laughs!! I didn't get very many pictures of the Collie National as I was videotaping for Jolene. I did want to get all the proper names right for all the dogs' pictures, before I posted them.<br />

Then at the Collie National Specialty on Saturday, he won the 10 and Over Veteran Class and Best Rough Veteran in Specialty. I absolutely LOVE Taters!! He turned 12 on April 11!!To see more of the videos etc., check out Jolene's blog at: <a href="http://www.onecollie.blogspot.ca/">www.onecollie.blogspot.ca</a></td></tr>

So that was March into April. Now we wait for warmer weather...and we wait and wait some more!! There was even a little skiff of snow on the grass this morning and in Olds Dave woke up to 4 inches of the stuff!! But the robins are back, the neighbor has his tomatoes in his greenhouse--I have a pot full in mine and the heater going!! I've raked most of the back, so that it was nicer for the dogs to be out on and it just looks better to get rid of all the leaves and snow mold. Happy Spring!! We have big events coming up in May--Duffy turns 6 and Dave and I celebrate our Silver Anniversary!!<br />

It's been snowing and blowing since 6 AM. Highways are not good. So we decided to postpone going to Camrose until tomorrow morning. The Collie Club of Canada National is being held in Camrose this year which is really exciting--in all likelihood it will never be closer to Edmonton than this!! The dog shows that are still held in Edmonton are summer shows, and collie coats are at their best when cold weather has been around for awhile, so the National is typically in the late winter or early spring. No shortage of cold weather this year!! I am going for a much needed break--so no stresses of having a dog to show, hauling crates, food, etc. Just going to visit with breeders, friends, especially Jolene (♥), shop, and have fun!! Jolene has her veteran boy Tate entered, and Duffy's mom, Abby is entered in Veterans as well--very cool!! And there will be lots of other Collies too!! Jolene's Flat-Coat Retriever puppy Lync is entered in his first full fledged show, so that's exciting!! Should have tons of pictures after I get back!!</div>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">March 14, SWD celebrated its 200th dream-yeah!! We fulfilled a dream for a lady who wanted really good pizza and we put on a party for the whole unit. The media came, but I missed that part, as I was dealing with water problems at home--water main broke down the lane and there was no water for 2 days. Friday at 10:45, they had turned the water on for a little while, so I was filling buckets again before I could head down to the EG.</td></tr>
