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!

“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.

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

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.”

Ambrosia’s little note:

Happy Teaser Tuesday everyone. Puppies did fantastic at their first training classes last week. I am very much looking forward to this week as well. Dean is the youngest in his class and he spent the first 10 minutes under a stool, it was cute he was peeping out at everyone from the stool. He did come out and engage a lot by the end of class he was greeting the other pet parents and older puppies. Sammie, well she was a social butterfly from the start. She is the second youngest in her class but also the second biggest LOL. Everyone could not believe how big she was. Only pup bigger was a 5 month old.

Ambrosia’s little note:

Happy Teaser Tuesday everyone. Sorry I missed last week, we had some AC drama and I was focused on not melting and taking care of the puppies and kitties making sure they didn’t melt too. Thankfully all fixed now and we start training tomorrow. There is training for Dean and on Thursday we have training for Sammie. I am looking forward to it.

On to this weeks teaser…

“It turns out that Molly wasn’t her mother’s daughter in that respect. Charity was like the MacGuyver of the kitchen. She could whip up a five-course meal for twelve from an egg, two spaghetti noodles, some household chemicals, and a stick of chewing gum. Molly …

Molly once burned my egg. My boiled egg. I don’t know how.”

Ambrosia’s little note:

Happy Teaser Tuesday everyone. Potty training is still going very well I am very proud of the little ones. They have already mastered sit as well and are working on down. We start training in puppy classes in the early part of August but I like keeping their brains busy. Can’t wait until it is safe to bring them more places.

Ambrosia’s little note:

Happy Teaser Tuesday everyone. Thanks for the comments on how cute Dean & Sammie are. I think they are the cutest, I am biased of course. They are getting so big already, going to have to go get them new collars next week lol. And today was a banner day only one accident otherwise we have gone outside or hit the potty pads all day woot woot! Such smart babies. We have had some pretty bad storms the last few days so when its storming I don’t take them out even though we are potty training, don’t want them to associate it with scary stuff. Plus tiny bladders can’t make it all night yet lol.

Ambrosia’s little note:

Happy Teaser Tuesday everyone.I hope your reads are good. Thank you for the understanding about me being gone for a it. Funny how things happen sometimes. I mentioned my kitties have been looking for the dogs too. Well Maverick darted out the door one day last week. He had never ever so much as show interested in the door let alone bolt when I was grabbing a package. Felt like he ran forever while I was following and crying and begging him to come back. Several blocks later he zoomed Into a yard and plopped down.

I was still bawling and scooped him up and crushed him to me while yelling at him. Home owner came out as they saw me on  their cameras. I apologized for being in the yard and such and told him what happened. He told me to to worry and let him know if there was anything I could do. I off handed said unless you have one or two kitty friendly pitties probably not ( I then also explained why I felt Maverick bolted.) Then he said…well actually.

Long story cut shorter, he and his wife rescued a Pittie from a very very bad situation. Outside all the time, former owner kept trying to dump her in the desert you name it. They didn’t know when they took her she was pregnant..They didn’t know what to do with all the puppies they just did know they didn’t want to take them to the over full shelter. Shelter isnt safe for babies anyways.

So Maverick picked himself out a pair of puppies LOL Dean & Sammie a boy and a girl (ill do photos when they sit sort of still). Maverick hasn’t left their sides since he picked them out. The other kitties aren’t in love yet but they Dom’t hate them. I guess sometimes the universe gives you an insane shove. No idea on what dad is but the coloring on some of the others suggests a  rottie. I will be doing a DNA test down the line and don’t worry Mama is being spayed asap.

On to this weeks teaser…

“You must be Warden Ramirez.”
This is the part where I got nervous. Ramirez loved women. Ramirez never shut up about women. Well, he never shut up about anything in general, but he’d go on and on about various conquests and feats of sexual athleticism and—
“A virgin?” Lara blurted. Lara blurted. She turned her head to me, grey eyes several shades paler than they had been, and very wide. “Really, Harry, I’m not sure what to say. Is he a present?”
