Giving Thanks

Hi, everyone. I haven't blogged in so long...I feel like a bad friend. I can't access this website at work and by the time I get home, I don't want to look at a computer. How is everyone? Life here with the Cam-ster is going well. She's been really sweet (like, when is she NOT, right?? I mean, look at that face) and she's so excited to see me when I get home, that all I want to do is play with her. This past week has been really cold in the Northeast, so we've been debating on purchasing a dogg… Continue

Camber--Dethroned

The city of Brighton had a parade yesterday. I have no idea why, but we went down to see it because I love marching bands. We left Cam at home. Well, Lo and behold, what do we see walking towards us??? Another tri-colored corgi. Camber lost her coveted "Only Tri in the neighborhood" crown to Ralph. Ralph is a handsome little guy. Only 6 months. His coloring was beautiful. Where Camber is dark fur, Ralph is all tawny. Mo and I had fantasies about how darn cute puppies from he and Cam would loo… Continue

Camber+ Farmer's Market = Disaster

Took Camber to the dog park and a pit bull got a little too friendly and she charged and snapped at him. I was just as surprised as the dog. Camber is a proper girl, and really. Does it take that much sniffing to get to know another dog? Didn't think so. The pitty didn't go near her after that. Despite the pitt's attempt to get Biblical with Camber, she really was a sweet dog. Camber made quite the splash at the dog park. It was a new group of dog's and everyone was oohing and aahing over her.… Continue

People, their kids, and my dog

Let me just preface this by saying that I was a nanny for 2 years. I am a teacher. I love kids. But, I really didn't like these 3 little girls at the dog park yesterday. First off, they were unattended. Their adult was in the vicinity, but wasn't paying attention. Well, these little girls were trying to pet every dog in the area. There were a variety of dogs there and they were all playing with each other. They seemed to want to do nothing with human babies. So, here come Cam and I. She's sniff… Continue

The dog days of summer...

Here we are, with the second week of August behind us, and I'm getting ready to go back to work. Camber and I have been spending loads of quality time together and I just realized how much I was going to miss her come September. Being a teacher has its time advantages and Cam and I would hang out on the couch or in the backyard...she's going to miss me. I've had to meet at the school these last couple of days, so I'm getting her used to the idea that I won't be around as much. But, it breaks my… Continue

Wow...it's been a while since I've written anything! Lots o'drama over Camber today. For more info, check out Moses' discussion. It's worrisome, but judging from Cam's face this morning, I think everything will be ok.

I am a elementary Special Education Self-contained teacher. It is nice to find another corgi/teacher. :)

Cam's been off her eating schedule. Last night (this morning), she decided that she was going to eat at 2:30am. She made such a racket! Then, she came to my side of the bed, looking for head scratchies! Being the sucker I am, I gave them, but I need to stop this little habit.

What age do you teach? Sped. or Reg.? It is nice to find a teacher that likes Corgi's too!

I love the fact that you use Ceasar's behavior methods with your students. I almost cried laughing out loud when you responded to me. Thanks for the laugh! arline

Elys your baby is beautiful. I love your pictures.

Thank you.

That was the name her previous owner gave her (they were big Nascar fans. It has something to do with brakes...). We think she's happier everyday. She came into our lives for a reason. I mean, when I saw her little face, there was NO WAY I wasn't going to scoop her up!

Camber is such a unique name. I love it! She looks absolutely precious! I know that you are the perfect family for her. The pictures show how happy she is! I will get some updated pictures of Lily as soon as I figure how to move my pics from my phone to the card successfully. I lost a lot of my other pics of her recently.
