Patience…

I just hate to wait… I want everything to happen at once. Once I got an idea I better work on it right away but sometimes it is impossible.  Many of my thoughts right now goes to the dogresort. It looks like we can have it up and running in middle of November and that would be so much for us! First of all – we have something to work for right now. This summer has been one of the worst periods of my life and now I can see some “light in the end of the tunnel”. There are still things that needs to be fixed and everything can be changed in a second but I want to think positive. I promise to keep you updated as soon as something happens :)

I am still waiting for the rain. The forecast says that it might come tomorrow… well, I want to see it before belive it… I have never been without rain for this long in my life. Well we got like two showers of rain two or three weeks ago but I barely don’t want to count it. it lasted for less than 10 minutes. But the storm Hermine is going to give us some rain… *keep my fingers crossed*.

We still have Kennelcough among the dogs. Well, it is a lot better but we still keep the dogs on the farm. It looks like we have two upcoming litters in October. Mom Cocker Spaniel Zascha seems to be pregnant and my Dalmatian Co-Co. So I bet we will have our butts filled with work in October with business, puppies, mom is going to Florida for a SWEA conference… yehaa… I think all days I’ve been doing NOTHING this summer will soon be over…

We are also working with the things for the embroidery ad… this is the first thing that got ready… more things to come :)

Amazing

I am amazed over the good response I got on my little “hobbyproject”. Maybe it won’t be a hobbyproject for so long, who knows. I made up a facebookpage for the page that you can find HERE. I also have a bunch of blogs to write and investigate that I find very fun. I will go to Prospect Mountain Theurapetic Ridingcenter tomorrow afternoon and you will be able to read about that on Tuesday. I will try to investigate more about the Voluntary Firedepartement in Terrell that are loosing funds. I am also very glad to be doing an interview with Abigail Casillo D.V.M for next Sundays portrait. I have also been able to put up some advertising possibilities and started a linkpage that hopefully will be useful for everybody. If you want to read the blog you can find it on http://mixednewsdallas.wordpress.com

Yesterday i went to a seminar from Storesonline. Was invited since we are making a webshop with them… but I got so mad and dissapointed because when we got there it was all about us buying an upgrade of the software for either $4000 or $6000. Do they think I am made of money??? And then they had a hard time accepting a NO, I AM NOT INTERESTED! So it ended up with me taking my stuff and left… It felt like I wasted a whole day when I could have been home taking care of the dogs so mom didn’t have to do it…

I’m staying home from Church today so I can give Hanna her medication in time. She is doing better. Unfortunatly moms dogs has started coughing more and more. I bet this stupid KennelCough will be around for a long time…
Doris is doing better. I still have her on Rimadyl and will so have for a while. She is getting restless but she is a very good girl!

The Yellow Gardenspider

This is two different spiders that was outside my house… I had to google it and on A&M”s page found this:

Orb-weaving spiders produce the familiar flat, ornate, circular webs usually associated with spiders. Orbweavers come in many shapes and sizes, but the brightly colored garden orbweavers, Argiope, are the largest and best-known. The yellow garden spider, Argiope aurantia, is marked with yellow, black, orange or silver. The female body is more than 1 inch long with much longer legs. It is also known as the black and yellow garden spider and sometimes the writing spider because of a thickened interwoven section in the web’s center. Male Argiope, often less than 1/4

the size of females, can sometimes be found in the same web with the female. Garden orbweavers are so named because their webs can be found in fields, on fences, around homes and in other locations.The spinybacked orbweaver, Gasteracantha cancriformis, is another distinctive orbweaver common in wooded areas. The unusual flattened, spiny body shape makes it look like a crab. Abdomen colors include white, yellow, orange or red.

Orbweavers are generally harmless but can be a nuisance when they build large webs in places inconvenient for humans.

I am not really fond of spiders so to read that they are harmless was really nice :)

Another thing that is harmless is this little friend:

The nest has been empty for a couple of days so this bird came back just because of the rain that came on friday :)

We haven’t got any more rain than that hour… we need more but I guess I will regret wanting rain later on *lol*.

Nothing has happened this weekend… just another boring weekend in waiting for… who knows…

Never Saticefied?

Since nothing really has gone my way lately it has been hard to remain positiv. I’ve been trying to fight and see things from the bright side. But not the easiest thing on earth when everything is going in the other direction… I guess I am put her on earth to learn to be patient… that means that since I have so hard to learn it, I will get really old…

I was listening to TV yesterday and they said “to be successfull you have to imagine your self in five years”… well, how am I supposed to be able to do that? If someone told me five years ago that I was going to be here in the US today, fighting for a loan and trying to survive, I would not belive that person… That was not in my mind at all. But here I am. And I am happy to be here. Just have to solve all issues with money, business, job and other things.

I applied for jobs yesterday and they would return to me in next week… gosh… I don’t want to wait…  I want a job NOW! Not next week… that’s what I say, I am never saticefied…

Then we can talk about weather… we’ve had MANY days with over 100 degrees. They say on TV that it is only 7 days but that is in DFW, not in Terrell. I keep track of how hot it is and the weather and it is sure not the same as they say on TV… I guess I am living in some kind of whole. But it is summer and it is just to realize that this is how it is supposed to be in the Texas summer… But I want rain. Last time I asked for something weatherwise was in January when I said that I wanted ONE day with snow…  do you remember???

I really got what I asked for then and that is what scares me now… I know that autumn includes rain and we will get rain sooner or later but it will not be soon enough… I bet I will be complaining after a couple of days of rain too… the weather is never perfect… and when I am sitting with the rain pouring down outside the window I will think about…

So to sum this up… how do I get positive again? Just sit here and wait for someone to call or? I have no money to do anything so it is hard… imagine what I will do in five years… Well… I hope that we have the dogresort open and running well. I hope that I make a lot of money, maybe be able to sing more than I do now. I hope that I have found love… being single starts to be boring… but to find someone that accepts all my dogs… eh… yeah right….

Well, now it is weekend so I guess nothing special will be going on… more than keep it up!

Jobhunting…

Here we go again… looking for work again…

CWresume

In case anyone is interested of my resumee I put it up here and if you know anyone looking for staff – just referr them to me!!! I so bad need a job. I am prepared to do pretty much anything right now.

I’ve been in Mesquite today to do a typingtest and a stresstest for City Of Mesquite and I passed that :) but it will take a month before they will get in touch, IF they do… It was as a 9-1-1 dispatcher and I think that job sounds really fun but stressy… I will take my resumee to different places in Terrell tomorrow that I know are looking for workers…  I like writing but my english grammar is not perfect. I love photography, animals (if anyone missed that), and what you might not know about me is that I am actually a pretty good singer…  I don’t mind working night or different shifts.

We had a HOT day today. The car told me 107 right outside Elmo earlier today. Here at home the thermometer has been on 106 all day long. I have to have the dogs outdoors at night, something I don’t like but Idon’t have any choice…

So that is just what has been going on here today… try to beat the heat…

Parade in Wills Point

I got a call on Thursday if I wanted to participate in the parade today in Wills Point. It was a little bit too close to get the horses ready for a parade…  but here are some pictures…

We will go back to Wills Point tonight to watch the Rodeo that is going on there… I don’t know if I can bring any dog because of the heat. It is extremly hot now so we’ll see…

Last Night I went to Dallas to see a movie with two friends. We saw the Swedish movie The Girl Who Played With Fire. It is based on a triology by Stieg Larson. I haven’t read any of the books and haven’t seen the first movie so it was a little it strange but anyway good. I want to see movie #1 and I look forward to #3. It was actually five years since I went to a movietheater. Last was in 2005 when I saw The Da Vinci Code… so I enjoyed it very much :)

New phonenumbers

Last night I just got enough. Since we got the new numbers to the company we have got textmessages and phonecalls regarding and with sex. A pastor has called me 6:59 am every sunday… Be happy that I am awake!!! But last night I just got enough. That textmessage was just too much. So we went back to Verizon and talked to them about this situation and they helped us to get new numbers. So the new number to Daimilus & Terrell Danes is 214-717-3865 and to Saint Cox is 214-717-3864. All other numbers to us starting with 214 can be erased!!! By the way, if you have a businesscard from me, you will probably have some information that is wrong on it. Ask me for a new one so you have all the right information :)

I was going to do embroidery here in the afternoon but realized that the dog (probably Hanna) has chewed on the cord to the floppydisk reader so I had to go back to Rockwall again!!! So annoying. But it was after all good because I got stuff that I missed earlier today when I was in there for new businesscards. On my way home I was going to buy some dinner for mom. I felt too sick to eat but bought so I can eat it later. It is way too hot for me right now! I started with the embroidery when I came home and it went smoothly actually!!! It is deadline on some of it tomorrow and that is now done :)

Tomorrow is dogpark again but it will be the girls turn… Very interesting to see how they behave!

Another thing.. I want to do something fun Friday night. Anyone want to go out, take a drink or anything??? It is boring to do alone… or do you have any suggestions of where to go??? PLEASE?!?

Walk and bath

I am so saticefied! It was dogwalkday yesterday but it wasn’t anyone showing up. Not surprised since I am not able to do that much advertising about it. We will go to Canton tomorrow for advertising and socialization for some dogs…
Anyway, instead of just going back home I was a good person… I walked around the trail in Ben Gill park. Five times around the 3/4 miles long trail (=3,75 miles or 6,03 km). I was so happy when I came home. Second day in a row with one hour walk! Is it getting  a habit? Today is Obedienceclass and it might be that I do the same thing.. We’ll see…

We had visit today from three girls who helped us bath some dogs…

Oliver, Geisha, Robbin (picture), Texas and Molly got a bath.

Shelby pulled a muscle today and is now joining the limping team… I don’t think it is that bad but she will have to rest for a day or two…

Well, tomorrow I will go on my first party here in US. I am looking so much forward to it! Well, now off to Terrell!

Strange day

Yesterday mom and I went to Plano to celebrate Swedish Midsummer with SWEA. It is always a fun event.  We celebrate the harvest, at least that is where the tradition comes from, we have midsummerpole that we dance around and we eat and have fun. Shannon was with us. I took a lot of pictures but when I was going to download them from my cellphone the phone just died… so this pictures are the only I got and that is because I uploaded them on Facebook before trying to download them on the computer…

Me and Margareta

Mom and Margareta

My friend Åsa

So the rest of the pictures are gone…

On our way home we had a small car accident. We hit a rim to a tire and got a flat tire on our car…

It was another car that hit the same rim but they had a spare tire. We had no clue what to do. Since this happened on HWY 80 in Sunnyvale we had to call 911 since we had a dog and no clue what to do. First came a man from the Sheriffs department and he tried to help us finding where the sparetire was. We finally found the servicebook and then we also found the second key that we didn’t ge with the car! After a couple of minutes another man showed up from nowhere. That was the Courtesy Patrol. Never heard about it!!! What an awesome thing! He new where the sparetire was, took it down, changed tire for us in 10 minutes! And we were not even allowed to pay him!!! I have never heard about anything like that!!!

So we could take us home by our selves!!! Thanks to both men who helped us yesterday!!!

Nice and easy home I called Wild Blue about our InternetService that’s been down for a week. It was a kind of problem that we got fixed and 15 minutes later also the Internet was up and running as normal.

Sat down to upload the pictures from the cellphone that I took all day and suddenly my Black Berry just died. It was blinking red but nothing happened when I pressed the buttons. Took out the battery and put it back in again. Nope, same thing. Looked in the book and found a number that was for service. Called them and he just said – dead phone, return to store. Went online to se when the store opened today and saw that they were open until 8 pm last night. And it was only 6:45. Out in the car and off to Rockwall. Yes, the phone was dead… they gave me a new phone… all my pictures was lost but shame me… I didn’t have a memorycard. I bought a memorycard for the new phone so this won’t happen again.

Three obsticles that happened yesterday was solved soooo smooth! And to be helped by the courtesypatrol and the Officer would NEVER happen in Sweden…  So it was a pretty good day yesterday.

Maybe some of my friends will email me some pictures from the celebration yesterday and I will publish them here!!!
