One Step At A Time

One week from the first post!  \(^ o ^)/  This is an accomplishment.  Now the next step is to follow through every week and make a new post.  I will be taking it one step at a time.  This also goes for the plans I have in store for myself.

I feel I need to work on my writing skills.  Most of my goals involve writing.  I had already purchase two well known books about the subject.  "The Elements of Style" by William Strunk Jr. and E.B. White, and "On Writing Well" by William Zinsser.  I could hardly say I actually read The Elements of Style.  More like skimming through the book. ( ^ _ ^;)  Anyways, I'm going to have to find that book and reread it.  Right now I started reading On Writing Well.  I also got the Audible for the book as well.  I find that if I read the book and listen to the audio version,  I pick up most of the material.  Plus new ideas form when I take it in this way.  It's actually fun! :) 

After I accomplish this, the next step is to improve my websites.  Trust me, they really need an update.  Now you can see why I need to improve on my writing skills first.  After the websites are done, I can concentrate more on improving my skills as a breeder and as a dog trainer.  I can't wait to get to this point, but all in due time.

On top of everything I have my wedding to plan too.  It's taking a lot of my time and resources....  I can't wait until the big day comes!  Hopefully by then I've got most of my goals accomplish.

Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas!  And have a Happy New Years!  Please be safe! From Kiyo, Kuma, and Kyuubi. :D

Returning to Blogging

It's been awhile since I've written anything....  I need to work on making it a routine.  It's good to write to understand one's self better and what you are trying to achieve.  The bonus of having it online is that you have people that have the same interest join together, share ideas, and make things happen. :)

Currently, I'm working at my part-time job that I've been at for a 1yr and half.  A lot of great changes have happen there and it's only going to get better.  On top of that job, I've started to build up on my dog training business.  So far I have one client that is dealing with my achievements and my failures on how to organize myself wisely for this new job(especially since I'm my own boss and I'm tough to please).  I'm hoping by the beginning of summer I can have a few more clients and a pretty solid routine for that.  Just takes one step at a time.

Dog show world, we have some progress.  Kyuubi has one major on her and has turned 1yr old!  Kuma is now 2yrs old and has passed his OFA tests!  I've learn so much from these two dogs and my original Shiba Inu, Kiyo.  Right now we are just enjoying the first part of the holiday together.  Next week Kuma and Kyuubi will be joining my friends to the Palm Springs dog show in Indio.  A four day show and all majors!  I'm hoping that both of them might at least win one day.

Unfortunately, I won't be able to go due to wedding planning and saving for it.... That's going along ok and still have quiet a few things to do still.

Well, I will be back later and will try to make writing at least a weekly thing.  Until then, Merry Christmas!!!!  :D

It's That Time of Year Again....

BSA(Beikoku Shiba Inu Aikokai) show is this weekend!!!! Can't wait to go out there and see the dogs!  I'll be there with my three Shiba and taking pictures.  I was going to show Kyuubi at this show(it would be my first time showing in a NIPPO style show!)... but Kyuubi's NIPPO papers didn't come in on time to register her in the show....  Oh well, there's next year and I can look around for a good NIPPO male for her when she's old enough. ^-^

Well, I better get back to work so I can prepare for this weekend.

Here's the location of the show if your interested on going.  The show is March 9 and starts at 8am.

Can't wait for what this year has in stored!  Enjoy your New Years!

Happy New Year's from Kyuubi
