I am terrible at this... I think each night that I should sit down and do a blog post then I start on something else and all of a sudden it is 6 weeks later and I feel behind again.
I guess I will break it down like this:

The Good-
Lexi turned 7 in October, she had a great fun party with 30 kids (YIKES) she collected gifts for Alberta Herding Dog Rescue which was great, we were able to take a ton of stuff to Cindy in Calgary for the dogs.
James and I got a great day away to Calgary to go see the Flames play the Devils. We enjoyed a shopping afternoon and then the game in the evening, even though the devils lost we had great seats and had fun.
We spent the month working on Lexi's new room, scrapping ceilings, painting, new floor, and it turned out amazing! And James and I are still married, sometimes home reno's don't go well for us :)
The weather was beautiful for October so we got out to take beautiful pictures and take the dogs for lots of runs.
AMAZING NEWS, my brother and Lisa got engaged :) I couldn't be happier to have Lisa as my sister, she won't be my sister in law, she is to amazing for that, she has been like a sister to me for a long time, and I am so happy to have her in our family and I am so happy for my girls to have such an amazing Auntie!!
Halloween was so much fun with the girls this year, Bella was so into it. I loved taking them trick or treating!
Miss Bella turned 5 on November 8th, this little girl has come so far in her 5 years of life, James and I are so proud of her :)
I haven't done much agility, which is bad, but I had a great practice with Storm today and Lexi had a good practice with Clover which was so much fun to see things click in her puppy brain!
School is going very well with the girls, Bella is loving going everyday and is doing well in Kindergarten. I am so impressed with her printing abilities! Lexi of course is excelling in Grade 2, she is so much like her dad.
Dance is dance, crazy as always keeping me on the go.

The bad...
I have been feeling really defeated with work lately. I am not sure where I am at. Customers have been making me crazy with no shows, being late, being rude and just a pain in my ass. Plus I have just had rotten luck with bad dogs, I have never been bitten, scratched or cleaned up more messes then I have in the last two weeks. I have so many amazing clients, but the bad ones have just been stuck in my head lately. Plus I have been making a mess of my schedule lately. Booking dogs in the wrong times, not writing dogs in at all, or double booking myself. I feel like I a need a holiday but I know that isn't coming any time soon, it is just going to get busier so I need to get out of my funk.

The sad...
Last week we said good bye to our two kitties,,, it was a hard awful decision to make but behavior and health issues at home left us with little options, as we have been dealing with problems for the last 4 years things have escalated in the past few months. It was hard to say good bye and the house feels strange without them under foot. Ava is the last of our before children pets, it is heart breaking.
There is so much I want to type and say, but my head isn't ready yet, I feel more wrecked about this then I thought I would. But I know Jersey and Bratty are with Daisy now, who they both loved so much.

I would like to say I will be better and blog more... But I will be realistic and end with a few of the pictures from the last month :)
