There are (I hope, Deb is keeping an eye on this for me) a few spaces in my next two retreats, this Saturday in Wisconsin near Madison and next Saturday in McKinney, near Dallas.
Check out my guest Fabeku at the May retreat whose name I can never pronounce but lots of people can’t so he created a cool tutorial.
And, because everybody wants to know, Stuart is a Schnoodle (half mini-poodle and half-mini schnauzer) and Luna is half standard poodle (yes, standard) and half Jack Russell. Otherwise known as a Mistake-a-Poo.
I never planned on having two small dogs but then I also never planned on just about everything in my life so why would the dogs be any different?

I aprreciated this so much, as I am a new owner of a small dog which I never thought I’d own!
I am definitely a Luna dreaming of Stuart days. Thanks for sharing these precious pups and their sweet, gentle reminders for enjoying today.

Jen,
THANK YOU!
I need to say that to you today because you said just the right thing that I needed to here you say… I’m having one of those days when I think to myself: “OMG, you have nothing to say, and no one would want to hear what you did have to say anyway. Who do you think you are trying to be?”
To hear you (a successful, working, popular teacher) say that you sometimes feel the same way I’m feeling is incredibly freeing. So, thank you. Thank you for putting yourself out there so I could find the courage to push on!
Yours,
Megan
p.s. I know your retreat this weekend will rock! Let me know when you come to Ontario (Niagara Falls is pretty you know)!

Mistake-a-poo – classic. Very interesting points you make as well, about swinging between these two different poles.

Jen, you showed up as your lovely self yesterday here in Wisconsin and it was ALL GOOD! (Everyone, Jen was dressed like Peter Pan but she was definitely Tinkerbell waving her magic wand!) My friend Jill and I enjoyed the retreat immensely, especially the laughter yoga and the collage play. What a wonderful treat you brought us during the coldest, darkest month of our year. Please come to Wisconsin again!!! Much love and thank you, thank you, thank you!
