They're a little over one year old, brother & sister and very sweet!

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Wonderful!!! Still puppies (look out for your slippers...lol) have fun with them Emily:)

[Emily]

I will definitely try ;)

[Tracey]

Don't forget to post us some pics of the puppies Emily. I adore dogs, and cats - well all animals really :)

Hope your cold gets better soon Ashleigh :)

Really enjoyed the series on the ABC Sat nights Last Tango in Halifax (heard they are doing a 2nd series, yay!) but now it's finished, Murder In Paradise will return, another great Brit series. I look forward to 7.30 Sat night viewing lately.

I loved Last Tango in Halifax. Didn't miss an episode and will be very happy if they make another series. I thought it was extremely well written - the dialogue was brilliant.
I enjoyed Murder in Paradise when it was on before too. Have you read any Malla Nunn books? They are very similar - different countries but the same bumbling out of place type of detective.

I'll get some photos up soon, I have some on my phone. For the moment I'm just readjusting my routine to walk them enough every day and all the other extra doggy related things. Soon (if I don't collapse in a big heap!) I'll have some dedicated computer time to myself ;)

Hahaha!!! You've only just started Emily;)

[Tracey]

Gorgeous puppies. I'm actually waiting for a pup of my own - the breeder tells me she has a pregnant bitch and I'm first in line for pick of the litter - can't wait :)

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Tracey, did you get your kitten back?

[Sharon]

Oh, dear me, mother's day...

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Lots of love out there for mother's day Sharon...I hope all the Mum's have a wonderful day, and are spoilt rotten, as they should be:)

[Katie]

have been in a reading rut all week.... found out I'm having a little boy on monday and have done nothing but baby boy shopping since LOL butnow i need to get my reading mojo back!!!! i would love a kobo mini for mothers day that should get me back on track ;) LOL

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Congratulations Katie!! Two little girls, and now a boy! Clever girl;)

[Sharon]

Katie, congratulations and I hope the day goes safe and well for all of you.

[Tracey]

Congratulations Katie - wonderful news :)

No Brenda, sadly it seems that when my husband and I split he took Gypsy with him and even though he never wanted either of the kittens in the first place he is now being spiteful and refusing to return her. I can only hope he won't mistreat her but I have a nasty suspicion he will likely dump her at the pound - I'm keeping watch for her daily on their website and also by phone, I've explained my situation, so maybe with a little luck I'll one day have her back. Dax, the male, in the meantime seems to grow nearly every day - he is going to be a very big cat indeed but he's not fat - just a very big boy. Not really surprising as Manx cats can grow as large as a small/medium dog. I just hope he will adjust well when the puppy finally arrives but I've never had any problems before so I'm not really anticipating any this time - it's just a matter of introducing them the right way and making sure you devote equal time to both animals.

Anyway hope everyone has a wonderful Mother's Day and gets thoroughly spoilt. :)

Woohoo Emily...how exciting! What sort are they, are they male or female, what are their names???"

Congrats on your dogs, it is a wonderful feeling to give them a home, we got our dog from the shelter he is beautiful and we have had him 6 years now, can't imagine life without him.

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Good luck with finding Gypsy Tracey!

Just wanted to share my book and writing blog with you http://bookfreak21.wordpress.com - I'm going slowly with it and I try and update every two weeks at least."

Ashleigh we have a blog thread you can post this into... http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/1...

It will be very lost in this thread, so the other is best for you:)

Hurry up, Ashleigh. :-)

I loved your post on censorship and will expand on this when you surface on the blog thread.

[Emily]

Two dogs = lots of energy

Haha! = an exhausted Emily;)

[Emily]

...with muddy socks and tired legs.

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Never mind Emily, they will grow up soon......;)

[Emily]

I hope so, I'm a little worried we're not the right home for the girl. She is very hyper anxious and seems worse during the week when we work, I think she might need more time and attention than we can give...

[Emily]

We're getting a trainer to come to the house on Saturday, and then once a week for a month. I'm really hoping they can help us help her.

[Emily]

Thanks Ashleigh :)

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Good luck with her Emily:)

[Tracey]

Best of luck Emily. Dogs, well all pets actually, can take up so much of your time and energy but they're so worth it for the pure unconditional love and companionship. :)

[Sharon]

Any Americans here? Just on the news -- they are looking for someone who has won the powerball there worth $377 million after tax LOL

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Pick me, pick me, pick me!!!! lol

[Sharon]

You'd think they would have split it up so 300 people could have won or something LOL - it is such a ludicrous amount of money that couldn't possibly make anyone happy.

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Totally agree Sharon! It's a crazy way to run things...

[Tracey]

Lotto and other things that offer tremendous amounts of money in winnings so often go bad in the end. I've heard many, many tales of people who've won millions only to end up broke within a few years. Makes you wonder how that happens but my niece J mentioned to me once that people have a 'money IQ' - essentially a set of values and attitudes towards money that remains constant regardless of how much money you actually have.

Of course if anyone wants to give me $300 million I'll be sure to spend it extravagantly :)

[Emily]

I can't imagine it would make me UNhappy...
