My family doesn't understand why I blog..lol..though I have a few friends that have started to read it. I am sure that my mom hasn't even looked at it, which is probably for the best..lol. The comment about your son saying that your old laptop is "sad" made me laugh. Thanks for stopping by my blog!

I could give you lots of suggestions of places to visit--and if you want to go to Disneyland, I volunteer to play tour guide! :-)<br /><br />When Willow makes it through her formal training, she will be matched to a person. Normally, that person would come to the Guide Dog campus to meet her and train with her. If that happens, I would be invited to graduation, and would formally present Willow to the person in the graduation ceremony. Sometimes, a client receives in-home training. If that happens, I would not meet the person. However, the person will receive my contact information (because I gave permission), and will be free to contact me if they want to stay in touch.

Sometimes clients train in-home, and if that is the case, they will not attend graduation. Hopefully Willow will graduate, and, ideally for me, her person will go to the campus for training. I'd love to attend graduation, and present Willow to her person.

I have some weird problems with mine, which makes the internet-thing not very pleasant. Weird screens, black screen of death, but it reveives out of itself.... and he's just 2 years old! Well, it will have to do. <br />You just enjoy your new blogging groove on your new laptop. <br />Do you get to meet the people Willow wil help? I hope she gets her graduation and have a lovely person to help and live with. Looking forward to your new puppy too! <br />Say Hi to John for me. xxxxBiancahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13124458364369038191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6085311167627297994.post-5396404695426442602015-09-13T23:17:50.359-06:002015-09-13T23:17:50.359-06:00I had my own set of computer troubles last spring ...I had my own set of computer troubles last spring of which caused me to lose my blogging outlet, but with the help of family and friends I found it again. That is what made me start to want to take part in this particular blog hop. I wanted to focus on being thankful for the blessings in my life because, otherwise, it's much too easy for me to get stuck focusing on the negatives.<br />Love hearing about your guide dog training adventures. I miss my guide dog a lot.
