i have alerted your post so that the folks who would execute this have a chance to read it.

Sounds interesting....I'm all for doing something with this idea.

Count me in.. if there is anything i can do
Also collaborative ATS wallpaper would be cool.. wink wink !!

a reply to: dollukka

I think with it being collaborative a wallpaper would be very nice... simply due to the fact of size with everyone contributing..

a reply to: dollukka

Yes, I did forget about the wallpaper contest.....we can do that soon as well.

a reply to: OpinionatedB

Thinking about all the forum themes.. im sure there could be a lot of ideas in one wallpaper.

a reply to: DontTreadOnMe

DTOM !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good to see you, one of the things I love here is the ability to expand ideas, ATS wallpaper is a great idea, count me in.

Thank you Cody & OB...

No it's not our first competition... but we just started in the
Open Class where the "Big Hats" run in Oct & now have 3
very competitive trials the next 2 weekends coming up & then
"Big Trial" from Tues 12 May through Sun 17 May.

I had to pull out of the trial today. Abby came up lame yesterday
& I don't know why unless she slipped on the slick floor. She was holding
up right rear...
I still drove down to meet up with my friend to get some medication for her.
I have always carried 2 ER bags in me truck with everything from meds,
bandages, splints & etc. I have shared so much that I didn't have what
I needed for her...but I'm cool with that. My job as a Lic Vet Tech use to
come in real handy...it still does as far as the knowledge, just short on
supplies ATM.

She has improved & took her on short walks today so she is still moving
& not getting all stiff...also no jumping & keeping her calm, she is always
on full body wiggles with happiness. Hard to keep a working Border Collie still
LOL!

I will be around tomorrow in the afternoon...I love the little project you
guys are doing...I enjoy seeing what you come up with & how you use it
in relationship to the over all picture.
Watching you gives me ideas...that is my hang up ATM.

Cheers
Ektar

If possible I want to be in too...sounds like a very fun
challenge.

Cheers
Ektar

Sounds pretty hectic mate,

I've just got back from a ride, and I'm about to sit back with a soup OB gave me the recipe for with fresh baked ciabatta. Bring on the avatars, I can't see me moving from this chair for a while LOL

You make me miss me bike bro...it was a weenie bike nothing
even close to yours. I had dreamed of getting one later but I don't
think so any more...but who knows.

Abby is even better today...will keep taking it easy with her & work
her a wee bit on Tues. I just finished cleaning all bloody day. Getting ready
to through some salmon & peppers on the grill...salt, pepper, lemon juice
& rosemary.

I am looking forward to trying some new recipes in June after all the hectic
has gone away LOL!

I will be trying to work on avis after dinner mate...I'm having trouble with ideas
although I know my mind has been out to lunch lately. I have really missed doing
the actual ones that require work. You guys are so quick at those...I know I will
be too once I get a better hold on everything. I have truly missed everyone as
well as not really being able to participate during the MAD transition.

Maybe I will start with a new one of Dirk, my best friend that I recently lost.
BFFT did me so right when I originally came here & I LOVE the one he made...
the one I normally wear...Blue Boy...

Summer of 2015 a great time for a new start.

Cheers
Ektar

a reply to: Ektar

I am glad she is doing better!

And when you are ready, all us ATS'er will load you up with new recipes!

a reply to: OpinionatedB

Thanks mate I am looking forward to it. I love to cook & the stove
& oven work here in the new flat...LOL! I cook mostly outside but
I do cook a few stir fry...as much as I LOVE chips & biscuits I cannot
do them because I'm trying to lose the weight I gained after surgery.

I eat healthy & try to walk 4 to 5 miles a day...although with Abby
being out the past few days I have just done things around here that
I needed to do...Hard to walk w/o her...she's with me 24/7...she's also
my service dog. I had trained them both to be 1 1/2 years ago.
BAD med reaction to Ritalin...every bad side effect except suicide...
so w/o describing how horrific the side effects were here...I still suffer
from extreme anxiety & panic attacks....she reads it VERY well & will
act if necessary.
So I am extremely thankful for her in many ways.

Cheers
Ektar

I don't mind telling about the med experience but I don't want to deflect
from our stuff. Anyone can feel free to PM me if they want to know.

Sorry everyone for the disappointment...I have been trying to find photos of
Dirk forever now, not just for here but bloody hell photos for meself. I just
saw them some where on here a week or 2 ago & now I cannot find them.

Will try a little longer if no avail then I will start fresh with something tomorrow
& if I cannot think of an idea I will ask for an assignment as I need to progress.
Thank you to ALL my friends for putting up with me...

Oh I also got my 1st smart phone in Oct...I need to see if I can get new photos
on here via BT....I haven't tried yet.

Cheers
Ektar

a reply to: Ektar

just post when and if you can find them! Don't get too worried about it.. whenever you run across them we are happy to see them!

Sometimes looking is the problem!

a reply to: Ektar

Yeah the beast is fun, but no matter how hard I try I can't get it to follow me, or train it to herd sheep. Yet LOL
Cody

a reply to: cody599

I don't see why not! I trained my ATV to herd cattle just fine!

But your right.. it didn't follow me and didn't try to take up room in my bed or slobber on me... hahaha



ETA:

You know what? I don't think anyone, anywhere, has EVER tried morphing a dog and a motorcycle! I think that is something you cannot find on the internet! hahahaha... its crazy.. but it makes me want to morph a dog and a motorcycle all the more!

a reply to: OpinionatedB

I'd make the front end dog if I were you, a lot less mess to clean up LOL
Any news on the job front OB ?

Cody

a reply to: cody599

Nothing.. and I even called back but I had to leave a message because all I was getting was voice mail.. so I left a nice message at any rate.. but nothing..

looks like no job..

I really really don't know what to do.. I am just keeping praying.. and keeping on with any applications anywhere I can put one at.. sadly.. I have even applied at walmart now.. still nothing..

a reply to: OpinionatedB

Keep plugging away with it OB failure cannot live with persistence

Lunch time's over back to my bench, gotta hang some glass doors....... What could possibly go wrong LOL
