We, like sheep
It's mostly cloudy today, rain may be arriving in a day or so.
Beulie accompanied me to chemotherapy this morning, reminding me once more that she will be going to advanced training in just two months. I will so miss her! She's the fourth puppy that we've raised for Canine Companions for Independence. Only about 30% are actually trained and matched with a disabled person but I have hope that she will make the grade. She's been a relatively easy puppy to work with and is smart, smart, smart! In June I hope to begin a new facet of my doggy career by doing short-term fostering instead of long-term raising. It will mean our home will be in perpetual chaos with a succession of new residents, but that's something to look forward to. Last year, before we got Beulie, we fostered two young pups from one litter for about a week which was such a fun time!
I painted sheep in my watercolor class this afternoon, working from two photographs that I combined in my own way. I've heard that sheep are smelly and dumb but I guess I see them more idyllically.
Wonderful sheep!

ReplyDeleteNice work for someone who isn't so into landscapes! I guess the mantra remains... practice, practice, practice :)
ReplyDeleteI think that this is wonderful! I just love it - the feeling and the colors...and the subject matter. I don't care if they are smelly and dumb or not.
ReplyDeleteThank you Just Because and K -- I'm liking it more and more now that I've gotten used to it! - Barbara
