Wag the Dog

You can tell whether or not your faithful companion is paying attention to you or not by watching his (or her) tail. If your dog is facing you and his tail is wagging to your right, his left, he is paying attention to you. If the tail is wagging to your left, his right, he is not paying attention to you. If the tail is wagging to both the left and the right sides he is confused and is trying to pay attention to you but not able to.
Have your dog sit in front of you and speak to your dog, not saying his name, using your normal tone of voice. What side is his tail wagging to or on? Is he paying attention to you? Now have your dog sit in front of you, show him you have a treat, and say his name in a high pitch excited voice. Is there a difference with the tail? Is he paying attention to you?
Some dogs, depending on the owner, will always pay attention; however, some dogs will be occupied with other things around them. This is one way you can tell if your dog is paying attention to you or not.

Purpose

This is the place for me to write information, either random or purposefully, about the things I am passionate about, things I know and maybe sometimes wish I didn't know. These things include politics, patriotism, parenting, marriage, dogs, landscaping, gardening, cooking, lending, fiction and non fiction books, education, and the list can just go on.

I am the type of person that if I don't know something I will find out. I will research and study something until I understand it. I have an opinion, I have a brain, and I use them both often.

I am not someone that takes another opinion and makes it my own.

Educating yourself is one of the most important things anyone can do for themselves. I am not necessarily talking about formal education, I am talking about reading, doing, studying, and developing knowledge. It's interesting to me how humans can be so ignorant and blindly follow others.

This is not the place to be ignorant. Ignorance is something I have very little patience for. I love a challenge and I love expanding my perspective of the world and all the many things in it. There are certainly things I really do not care to know about; however, I might be willing to learn, but I do have my boundaries.

There are things I am passionate about and I have very strong opinions about some things. These topics, if your opinion, interpretation, perspective, etc. is different than mine, I have little patience and little ability to listen, but sometimes (if it is a good day) I might.

March 29, Monday, My Day of Birth

Your Life : You can trust your sixth sense. Life is exciting so routine job is not your interest. You have great ideas and fantastic imagination. You often feel tired of things and people around you.
Your Love : You can tell what's in the mind of another person just from looking into his/her eyes. You are paranoid and jealous and these are the cause of fights between you and your lover. Sometimes the thing you believe in is just your imagination.
