Ambrosia’s little note:

Happy Teaser Tuesday everyone. Halloween was a hit here. Dean had training so I didn’t get to go as big as I wanted to do. It was okay still dressed up and still had fun. Dean loved class, sad this week is the last for now. Both Dean and Sammie have been invited to come to other classes as ambassadors between now and when they start advanced class in January. So we are going to do that for sure. Dean was not the only pup dressed up either which was fun.

On to this weeks teaser…

I always considered myself a loner.

I mean, not like a poor-me, Byron-esque, I-should-have-brought-a-swimming-buddy loner. I mean the sort of person who doesn’t feel too upset about the prospect of a weekend spent seeing no one, and reading good books on the couch. It wasn’t like I was a people hater or anything. I enjoyed activities and the company of friends. But they were a side dish. I always thought I would be happy without them.

Ambrosia’s little note:

Happy Teaser Tuesday everyone. Dean has been doing really well on the supplements so I think they will work. He looks less like a bandit and his tummy hair has grown back in as well. Sammie has not stopped picking on him, haha but that is just the usual. They love each other, but they bicker. I am looking forward to their first Halloween.

On to this weeks teaser…

“It bothered me that he was right. Without Sir Stuart’s intervention, I’d have been dead again already.

That’s right–you heard me: dead again already.

I mean, come on. How screwed up is your life (after- or otherwise) when you find yourself needing phrases like that?”

Ambrosia’s little note:

Happy Teaser Tuesday everyone. This week Dean has been dealing with some environmental allergies.Poor boy. Vet suggested a supplement before we go onto medications or shots. He has only been on them for a few days but they do seem to be helping, so fingers crossed.He has lost some hair around his eyes so looks like a backwards bandit. Sammie for her part is picking on him as usual LOL.

On to this weeks teaser…

“Jump into an open grave? What kind of idiot are you?” Butters replied. “I might as well put on a red shirt and volunteer for the away team. There’s snow and ice and slippery mud down there. That’s like asking for an ironically broken neck.”

Ambrosia’s little note:

Happy Teaser Tuesday everyone. Training is still going great! Both pups are doing fantastic and Sammie is having fun bringing home new tricks to Dean since her class is so much smaller. She learned spin this week along with working on the other obedience training work. I really do love watching these two learn, they are so smart and such great little sponges.

On to this weeks teaser…

“Gandalf never had this kind of problem.
He had exactly this problem, actually, standing in front of the hidden Dwarf door to Moria. Remember when . . .
I sighed. Sometimes my inner monologue annoys even me. “Edro, edro,” I muttered. “Open.” I rubbed at the bridge of my nose and ventured, “Mellon.”
Nothing happened. The wards stayed. I guessed the Corpsetaker had never read Tolkien. Tasteless bitch.”

Ambrosia’s little note:

Happy Teaser Tuesday everyone. Thank you for the well wishes, I thankfully was only sick for a couple of days. Monday and Tuesday were the worst. Thursday I was all better which was good because Dean started his next round of school. I masked and made sure to make sure everyone was okay with me being there as I had a cold so recently. They all appreciated that but said it was fine. Its a great new class, none of his old friends but we DID see one of the pet parents from his puppy class and he was so excited! Sammie started her class on Sunday and she was a star, I think she was showing off for the new (to her) trainer lol. Her class is also much smaller only two other dogs and one didn’t show this week. Made things very fun though we did some tricks as well as the regular commands. If we do the stool tricks again I have to try to get some pictures she was so good at it!

On to this weeks teaser…

“Courage is about learning how to function despite the fear, to put aside your instincts to run or give in completely to the anger born from fear. Courage is about using your brain and your heart when every cell of your body is screaming at your to fight or flee – and then following through on what you believe is the right thing to do.”

Ambrosia’s little note:

Happy Teaser Tuesday everyone. I am here today. I think LOL. I am officially sick haha. Thankfully just a cold but a bad one and I admit I am being a bit of a baby about it. I had a good run with not being sick sick. Hopefully I can fight it off fast. I don’t want to miss Dean’s first intermediate class on Thursday. Thankfully I can rest today and tomorrow. So fingers crossed. Bless my Dean and Sammie they are being extra cuddly tonight. They can tell mama doesn’t feel good. At any rate…

On to this weeks teaser…

“Oh,” the girl said, shaking her head. “Don’t be so simple. People adore monsters. They fill their songs and stories with them. They define themselves in relation to them. You know what a monster is, young shade? Power. Power and choice. Monsters make choices. Monsters shape the world. Monsters force us to become stronger, smarter, better. They sift the weak from the strong and provide a forge for the steeling of souls. Even as we curse monsters, we admire them. Seek to become them, in some ways.” Her eyes became distant. “There are far, far worse things to be than a monster.”

Ambrosia’s little note:

Happy Teaser Tuesday everyone. Sorry about missing last week, no holiday excuse this time it was a fibro flare cause my schedule changed. Of course that happened. LOL to make up for it here is some cute grad pics of the puppies. Deans teacher didn’t do the hat thing that is okay though!

 

On to this weeks teaser…

“Star Trek?” I asked her. “Really?”
“What?” she demanded, bending unnaturally black eyebrows together.
“There are two kinds of people in the universe, Molly,” I said. “Star Trek fans and Star Wars fans. This is shocking.”
She sniffed. “This is the post-nerd-closet world, Harry. It’s okay to like both.”
“Blasphemy and lies,” I said.”

Happy Teaser Tuesday everyone. Sorry about missing last week, the Holiday threw me off. LOL. Puppy training has been going well and this week we graduate! Dean is so much more outgoing in public now from when we started and everything else. Sammie is a master at stay in a store and that is amazing to see too. We start intermediate classes next month.

On to this weeks teaser…

“The man once wrote: Do not meddle in the affairs of wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger. Tolkien had that one mostly right.

I stepped forward, let the door bang closed, and snarled, “Fuck subtle.”

Ambrosia’s little note:

Happy Teaser Tuesday everyone. Another great week of puppy training last week. Dean didn’t hide under the chair last week at all yay! Haha he really thrives learning things. I love watching his little brain puzzle out what he’s being asked and get excited when he figures it out. Sammie is wonderful too she doesn’t love the process as much as Dean but she loves when she figures it out.

On to this weeks teaser…

You,” Madeline said, her voice hollow and wheezing, “are like a bad case of herpes, wizard. You’re inconvenient, embarassing, no real threat, and you simply will not go away.

Ambrosia’s little note:

Happy Teaser Tuesday everyone. Last week was another great week of training class for the puppies. Dean did hide under the stool again at first but only for 5 minutes and then he remembered he would get a lot of treats and he was onboard lol. They are both doing so good with their classes. I do personally like the first trainer better but thats probably because the second trainer uses clicker and I have never liked clicker training. I think the noise does not make my autistic brain happy. Trainer is lovely just that clicker. She did notice I had it with me last week but wasn’t using it. When I explained why (she asked at the end of class in private) she understood and said as long as Sammie was doing well without it thats all that mattered. I don’t use it at home so Sammie was 100% fine without it.

On to this weeks teaser…

“No one is an unjust villain in his own mind. Even – perhaps even especially – those who are the worst of us. Some of the cruelest tyrants in history were motivated by noble ideals, or made choices that they would call ‘hard but necessary steps’ for the good of their nation. We’re all the hero of our own story.”
