May Goals: Revisited

1) Continue Emily and Casco Training - round 3.  We work on one thing at a time - May is "Improve Casco's Recall" month.  I'll keep you posted, but I'm starting to think that Ritalin might be our only answer (for both the trainee and the trainer). The three of us (Mr. B decided to be involved - either so that he could laugh at me as Casco blatantly disregarded my commands or so that he could chase after Casco when he blatantly disregarded my commands - verdict's still out on that one) are all making strides as long as there are no other dogs around.  Distraction training we are not yet ready for. 

2) Reseed the freaking backyard.  Third time's a charm.

3) Clean up the herb garden and get things planted.  I'm not going to lie to you, the only reason this got done was Mr. B.  On May 2nd, I came home from a long day at work and found the man pulling weeds from the herb garden, tilling the soil and otherwise being wonderful. 

4) Fix the laundry sorter. Or just buy a new one.  It's fixed.  Again, all Mr. B on May 2nd.  Maybe he's tired of seeing me not complete my goals?

5) Buy new laundry detergent that makes our clothes actually smell clean - so long Kirkland brand.  Go green if you want to, but I like my clothes to smell fresh and clean, so Tide and I have rekindled our former fling.
