Wanted to post something different...
I have about 3 weeks left until my baby boy is born.  Did i ever post his name here?  We chose Krischan Wolfgang Meuser...

haha, won't have to worry about having the same name as 20 other kids in his class, will he?

I'm still having some issues with... I guess it's just so unglorified art block?  Art un-motivation seems more accurate of a description... i have commissions, projects with due dates... people patiently waiting on me, and night after night I sit here and get nothing or little more out.  poo.

I guess I'm hoping maybe it's just been the pregnancy (honestly i've never had this problem before) and that i'll regain my head soon enough.  .....right?  o.o

other than that, just been busy with day to day things... annie is a year and a half old and doesn't understand the concept "sit still for more than 2 seconds"  AT ALL...  very cute, very fun, but very very busy...
I'm teaching art lessons 5 days a week.. errmmm...still working for Zamzows (local pet & garden chain) doing graphic design.. that's kinda fun.  

been having HORRIBLE problems with insomnia lately.. which has been leaving me really drained during the day.  haven't been able to get that cycle broken yet... but i keep tryin...

I guess many folks don't know this, but I no longer have the wolfdog, Kerby.  I keep his picture up on my ID because... i just can't make myself take it down, not yet.  We found him a very good home with someone who had much older children, and much more space.  I know he's happier...
I loved him and I brought him home before I ever had kids...but... it really came to a point (and believe me, I put it off and told myself it was fine as long as i possibly could) where the two couldn't co-exist safely any more...

anyway.  Last july we adopted a border collie/aussie shepherd puppy .. lil female named Kiya.  She's a sweetheart and is very very tolerant of Annie and all her tough toddler love.  I guess I aught to put some pictures of her up here sometime?

I do miss kerby.  He was so much more than just a dog...


On a lighter note, I'm gonna plug one of my art students who's here on DA..
go see :iconheartofwings: !  

she was here before under a different name, but had to leave and come back (long story)... she's got some new art to look at!  and she just keeps getting better ;}

I'm sorry that you still miss Kerby :( But I'm glad he went to a good home. I have two GSDxCollies. One male, one female and they adore children. I'm pretty confident they will be more than happy if I ever have kids. My Father grew up with similar dogs and he said his were like his shadow :-)

That's a nice name you have chosen for your son! I wish you the best of luck :D

Sorry you had to get rid of a dog... but when it comes to children well it's not even really a choice is it? My husband and I recently found a new home for our Aussie blue heeler, even after copious amounts of dominance training he'd lunge at me.. god knows what he'd do when I had our first child! =( We have a really even tempered Pharoh hound now, I have high hopes she'll do better, I hear female dogs in general do ;)

well, no. Not like i could find the kid a new home and keep the dog ;}
Kerby wasn't a bad dog at all... he was just... he did what God made him to do, which was sometimes to act like a wolf...sometimes like a dog.. and all the time 130 lbs of it, yanno? that's a big mistake, if a mistake is going to happen. he wasn't mean or anything.. but he acted on instinct a LOT and didn't really have a lot of respect for humans. I mean, why should he? He's a wolf!
i loved him to death, though. he was my buddy. I do really hope he's happy... and I'm glad to hear your situation is working out for you, too :}

My Aunt had a Mexican red wolf German Shepard cross named Mission, bc she was a gift from a native american tribe to missioners (don't ask me which tribe, I certainly have no idea :)) She was a great dog/wolf, and very good towards me when I was little... very patient... but as a child hanging on me she'd knock me down like nothing and snap up another of the dog's muzzle in her mouth to show dominance... I do see what you mean, perhaps not mean towards the child but acting on instinct ;)
