Wire fox terriers are December dogs: they bring joy to the world. They like everybody! Your life is just not boring when you live with a wire fox terrier.
We’ve put over 200,000 miles on three minivans. You see so much more when you drive, and you make so many memories along the way.
Dogs are very intuitive. They are happy all the time. They are very forgiving, and they have taught me to be forgiving.
Dogs do the things we need to do most: they listen and don’t say anything.
Dogs have taught me discipline. When I don't want to get up in the morning and go for a walk, I’d have two paws on my chest, and a face in my face saying it's time to walk. On those mornings when I don't feel like getting up, my dogs tell me it’s worth getting up.
When things don’t go the way you wish they had in the ring, that’s not where you get mad. You take it back to the set up, and you let it go.
There is nothing more rewarding than to take a dog that someone has put out or mistreated, and find that dog a forever home.
I've often said, “In retirement, I'm going to take in old dogs, and just sit and rock them in my rocking chair.”

Show Quotes
When things change, it doesn't bother me. I look at it as, ‘I’m having a new adventure! I'm going to get to learn something new, and do something different!’
[What I feel is] not really regret, but a new mindset of how I’m going to look at change and what I’m going to do with it.
[Navigating the pandemic was] like trying to build a plane as you’re flying it.
I believe God puts us in a community on purpose. He did not mean for us to be on our own because we are not nice to ourselves. If you said the things to your friend that you just said to yourself, you wouldn’t be friends.
Jump in! What's the worst that can happen? You might find out you don’t like it, or you might find out, ‘I didn’t know that I could love this so much! I didn't know that I could do this.’ What joy you've brought to yourself and to life!
Surround yourself with good people with strengths you admire, things that will help build up what you have. You have strengths others need as well.
Transition is just a normal part of life. Everybody has to go through it at some point. So embrace it.

I love finding good stories in any format, be it books, movies, TV shows, video games; and I particularly enjoy stories that are coming from different cultures.I can keep my joy of life and childlike wonder in adulthood. That doesn’t make me less of an adult or less of a person.Regardless of what situation you are in, you need to treat people decently. If you do, so many things are going to get smoothed over.A sign of being a strong woman in China is being able to change your own lightbulb. Yeah, that's a thing.There are amazing people who are doing an incredibly difficult job and deserve so much more recognition than they get. Treat them like people, and life will be so much easier.

When you understand a language, you are much more able to understand the culture and where a person comes from.I know you can do this because I have done this. I understand where you are coming from.Look at people. Listen to them. Learn their stories. Everyone has something that makes them tick. Everyone has different experiences, different cultures--even if you're in the same city, the same state, or same country. People have different experiences that will lead them to think in a different way. So many of the issues we are seeing right now is because we don’t listen to what other people are saying.CONTACT INFO[email protected] (mailto:[email protected])Recommended ResourcesAnything by Jane Austin, especially Persuasion (https://www.goodreads.com/work/quotes/2534720-persuasion)North and South, Elizabeth Gaskell (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/156538.North_and_South)Anthropecene Reviewed, John Green (https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/672554/the-anthropocene-reviewed-signed-edition-by-john-green/)The Fever King, Victoria Lee (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/39897058-the-fever-king)Little Women, Louisa May Alcott (https://www.amazon.com/Little-Women-Louisa-May-Alcott/dp/1503280292)Anne of Green Gables, Lucy Maud Montgomery (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8127.Anne_of_Green_Gables)Patterns of Fashion, Janet Arnold (https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/patterns-of-fashion-1660-1860-janet-arnold/1112247888)NIS LINKsNIS.media (https://nis.media/barbara-macdonald-the-multi-layered-life/(opens%20in%20a%20new%20tab))NIS Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/KitMcCartyNIS)NIS Twitter (https://twitter.com/nowisee10)Production by Headset RadioHeadset Radio (https://headsetradio.com/)Headset Radio Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/HeadsetRadio/)42 min

Show Quotes
Just because somebody quits on you, doesn't mean that you can quit on the commitments that you made.
Instead of pointing fingers, I was looking within myself.
I asked God to allow me to feel the pain that I needed to feel, to open my eyes to see things I needed to see, to feel the things from past trauma, and see the sinful nature of myself, so that I could heal.
It didn’t make sense, but I had a peace wash over me that said, “You’ve got to fight; you've got to keep going.” That's when I knew, “God’s in this.”
When you chase a life of perfection, 100% of the time you are going to be let down because perfection doesn’t exist.
When I had everything stripped from me, all I had was the truth that I am loved by God.
It doesn't matter what you walked through or what you’ve lived, what matters is what you're going to do with it and how you’re going to move forward with it.
Man’s love is fleeting, but God’s love never fails. God is going to be with you in the trenches, in the depths. You are loved. You are chosen.
I could feel myself holding back. Then I felt the Lord say, “You have got to lay down your fear. You can never experience the love story I have for you if you don’t lay down your fear.”
You can not give up. Trust and believe that your redemption story is on the other side.

I see myself as an educator who has a weird hobby.
I’m ok for now for planning vacations around where I can go throw.
I handle myself with more grace now than I did when I was 16 or 20. I know I'm not going to get it right the first time.
My sister comes to watch me compete and she really does have fun. Plus you have the added benefit of seeing guys in kilts. I would recommend anybody go. Just go. See what it's about and have fun.
A personal benefit has been getting back in the gym, getting motivated, getting in competition shape so I don’t hurt myself (which has other benefits to my health), and meeting a whole new group of people that I would not have met otherwise.
I like the competition. I like the comradely. Ultimately, I am competing against myself.
