Photos From Discovery Green

We had a great practice for DockDogs today. Foxy did some jumps around 13-16'.

I will have pics and some video up when I get back home. I am in College Station right now.

For now, I found these two awesome pictures of her from Discovery Green:

Foxy Makes It Into Another Article

My crazy girl is getting a lot of attention in DockDogs! I am loving it!

Her article is here: http://www.dockdogs.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1306&Itemid=273

Here is her segment of the article:

"Also making a large improvement in their jumping average was Kara Corn and her Border Collie Foxy. Starting out with a 7'7" jump, it didn't take long to reach a personal best of 10'9" early in the competition. But that was nothing compared to them breaking their personal best again later in the day with a 13'10" jump."

WOOHOOO go my speedy baby. Only 9 months old and already getting noticed!!! (I am not proud of her in the least bit! haha)

Saturday we are going to a DockDogs practice at our usual place, and then heading to College Station for the rest of the day and stay until Sunday afternoon. I am going to get away for a while since I have had a hectic week starting my new job and learning I have to go in for a pretty nasty surgery on the 25 (tonsils removed..which is a nasty ordeal when you are not a child!)

And..............

I must vent...in a very sporadic way...

I know this isn't really a personal blog, but I have to get things out in some way, shape, or form. So forgive me if this is not a "Foxy" post to her blog.

I am frustrated. VERY frustrated.

I WANT OUT OF HERE! I would even move back to my parents if they would let me. I AM GOING INSANE!!!!!!!! Frustration, frustration, frustration......to the point of absolute depression.

The reason why they dont want me to move back? They say crating my dogs is cruel, and that they would have to be 100% outside dogs...excuse me...NO.

Oh and the fact that I dont make my bed... because I dont follow rules.

HELLO how old am I? I am sorry but at 23, even if I moved back into my parents house..I should not have a "I have to make my bed rule." Call it being rebellious, or just plain stubborn.. but I shouldnt have someone telling me I have to make my bed at 23. On the other hand, I should not be expected to be stuck in this place constantly and watch a damn movie every night either. When I say every night, I mean EVERY night...weekend nights included. 7 days a week, 365 days out of the year. Shoot me. Now. End the misery.

UGH I shouldnt be getting yelled at because I want to do something else, or not want to go do something, or not want to watch a movie, or want to stay on the computer till all hours of the night... oh blah! I pay for the internet, let me sit on here 20 hrs a day, what does it matter? Oh yes, I forgot, I have to do everything else to make others happy..and not myself.

UGH sooooo anyways... when does the insanity stop? When does it all "happen?"

I am stuck, cant really go on with my life... cant do anything fun (except dog things of course) and everything is either frustrating or boring.

I want OUT, I want to GET ON with my life. I want the whole package (well I could do without having my own children) but everything else I WANT. I NEED...like everyone else on this planet does. I want it, however, to be RIGHT. I am in WRONG right now...well not IN, but I am trying to get rid of WRONG for good.

How hard is it to obtain happiness, when you are SUNK IN A RUT?

Cant get roommates... everyones either with a significant other, or married, or has children. It totally 100% sucks.

Get lost is what I want to do... move out of state, out of country, anything to get out of what I am so horribly stuck in.

And after all this, I am putting so much hope into it all turning for the good....

If it wasnt for the dogs, I would be completely lost after all of this frustration and depression.

God I sound like one of those emo kids...

Sorry.

P.S.
December 27, 2009 cant come soon enough- hope you are as into it as I am.

Foxy Gets The Job Done

Need I say more?



We got a new title (JJ-N, Junior Jumper National 10-14'11 jumps)
Won the Junior division in the 4th wave, and reached a Personal Best of 13'10"

On other news, I am really sick and am going to have to go through a lot of doctors. I got really bad last night and today has been an ordeal. Hopefully I get better, and can get my tonsils taken out soon so this does not persist.

Ready Ready Ready!!!!

So we are on for Fort Worth! I pre registered her in all the "waves." She is going to be a busy dog this weekend! We are entered for 6 waves so we might be coming back with a title this weekend... Looks like baby Foxy will be one up on Yoshi..hahaha

Here is some video and pics!

Fort Worth, Here We Come?

As far as I know, I am making the trip to Fort Worth for Foxy to do a DockDogs competition. The only thing that will stop us now, is if she decides on her practice day this next weekend that she doesnt want to jump anymore. So we shall see!

The days of the competition are the June 13-15

We will get there Friday early afternoon, and leave Sunday late afternoon (or earlier if she doesn't make the finals)

Hallettsville Trip

So I took the dogs to this farm/hunting lease for the weekend and they had a blast. I am posting this on Foxy's blog though, because she enjoyed it a lot more than Yoshi. I totally wore both dogs out..in fact they are still somewhat tired acting =) Maybe I need to buy a farm for them..LOL
