I can't believe that three months have passed since Sandi posted last on my blog! But really, I have to confess that in a way it has been nice. It really drives me crazy sometimes how much time a human can spend sitting at a keyboard.
It turns out that early in the summer Sandi's computer started getting really really slow and weird things were happening. So she took the computer to a computer repair shop - after a little while it was sent home with a new hard drive. Then, something else went wrong (I am bored by computer stuff so I didn't pay attention to the details). Something about a 'motherboard.' Anyway, she had a good hard drive, but nothing else.
Then she had to get a new one. Then Herman helped to have a local computer place customize a replacement, which really made Sandi happy because she really doesn't want to mess with those kinds of decisions. The problem was that this new computer went back and forth into the shop until all the kinks were worked out (not sure if that has really happened yet).
The good side of this was that instead of sitting at the keyboard and screen - she was playing with us! She didn't check email anymore, and we got to go on longer walks and play in the yard. I got to chase a groundhog out of the vegetable garden (Sandi wouldn't let me actually catch him - bummer) So while you have been wondering about my blogging, I've been having fun!
We don't have the camera plug-in thing installed yet (I think it's lost somewhere in the office) so you don't have photos with this post. Sandi needs to get this set up, and to carry her camera with us when we head out for training or other adventures.
Tonight we went to APS to practice Rally, and my friend Niamh was there. She has a freestyle routine she and Barbara are polishing for competition. I think Niamh is a born dancer! We also ran into my friend Royal - he is growing up and really really handsome! WOW !
But --- sorry, no photos. Maybe next time. And maybe Sandi can keep up with her computer stuff and still give all of us at home long walks and playtime.

Ayla,
I am so glad you have made Sandi post again. People are always having problems with their computers and saying bad words to them ( well at least in my house!)
Make sure she takes lots of pictures of you doing fun things. You were so excellent at Rally on Monday night. Sorry we didn't get to play in the dog park. Royal and I had a good time but I had to put the smackdown on him a couple of times when he got a little fresh.
Hope to see you next week.
Your friend,
Niamh
Hi Ayla,
I've been asking Jenn to set up a play date for us. I'm glad the new computer is up and working. I've given you an award! Check my blog.
Hope to see you soon-Royal
Ayla,
I'm feeling just fine now. By yesterday afternoon I felt like playing with my toys. Today I was feeling so skippy that I ripped up Selkie's old bed when Barbara was out. She was not happy with me!
Thanks so much for the card from you and Ruby.
Your friend,
Niamh
