Today is our sweet Angi's (Ch. Nutmeg's Kvit Yer Kvetchin')birthday - she's 9 years old! Where has all the time gone? Angi wasn't born here, I am her cobreeder, and we went to see the litter when they were just 4 weeks old. My eye was drawn to a solid dark red puppy with a very black mask, and I picked her right then and there as my pick. She's been nothing but a love bug ever since she came here, although the first few days when she did nothing but scream when she had to be contained were a bit hair-raising!

Angi is the dam of our Trudy and Smiley, and Mandisa. I see where Mandisa gets that tendency to give us the raspberry!

Here are a couple of pictures I took this morning of the birthday girl.





In non-doggy news, I got a new monitor for my computer. The old one came with this computer when I got it about 16 months ago, but for the past few months its been kind of blurry. No matter how Andy tried to adjust it, it wouldn't clear. I'm having enough trouble seeing small print without having it blurred, so Marc picked up a 19 inch widescreen monitor for me Thursday. What a difference! It was weird at first getting used to it, but now I wonder why I waited so long to get a new one! It's great!

I bought myself a birthday present - the World of Warcraft game that I guess is wildly popular. I installed it yesterday, but its had several updates already and I haven't had a chance to play it or even choose a character yet. This should be fun - I'm not very skilled at computer games, I'll probably get "killed" with the first monster I meet!
