Well. A type of joyful behaviour. 🤣
A large, ridiculous dog with legs in the air and to the side so she can scratch her back on the grass.

Also this morning I went for my 1st run since getting the flu 2 weeks ago. I was slow, coughed a lot, but at least I moved! #none2run #n2r
Pathway on the right leading into the distance, water on the left. Blue sky with sun and clouds. Running path leading into the distance, the River Derwent on the right, a snow and cloud-capped kunanyi My Wellington in the distance. Map of movement experience.

Karla had a ridiculously fun time bouncing at our local oval this morning. #schnauzergang #giantschnauzer #blackschnauzer
Karla and one of her friends sniffing a good sniff. Karla and a mini schnauzer (Fritz) galloping at the oval. Fritz lives chasing balls, but Karla just likes going for the gallop. Fritz kept getting barky at Karla. Humans and dogs enjoying the oval with a snow and cloud-capped kunanyi My Wellington in the background.

What happened to sharing little nice things from our day and being kind to one another? Here's my ridiculous dog beast. #schnauzergang #giantschnauzer
Black schnauzer having a snooze. She looks comfy!

Karla's morning gallop.
Large dog beast (giant schnauzer) being chased by a fluffy Jack-the-Aussie-shepherd in a grassy sports field.

Green expanse of sports field, with spectator stands in the middle distance, and a snow-capped kunyani Mt Wellington in the distance.

Karla swimming at the Devonport pool.
#schnauzergang #giantschnauzer #schnauzer
A black dog swimming in a bright blue pool - headed towards the stairs out. The depth sign says 1.1 metres.

It is such a TREAT to swim in an outdoor pool. Not something we get to experience in Hobart.

This pool reminds me of Karla dog as we brought her here once to swim. The day before they close the outdoor pool for the year, they have a dog day. Karla didn't enjoy it as we weren't allowed in with her.
Outdoor swimming pool - blue under a clear blue sky - with lane ropes. The pool seems empty (but I think there were 1 or 2 swimmers you can't see in this photo?).

Split. Very interested in tidying crumbs (or dog food) from the floor.
Split is sort between medium and small and has the hair sort of like a border collie - flooffy tail, sort of longer bits framing his head. He spent the party patrolling the floor for any dropped food. In this photo, he has found Patches' food container and has his nose completely in it. He is tidying the food. What a good boy!

Patches. Many bottom scratches. Tummy rubs welcome. Would like me to throw rope ball and/ or play tug of war.
A dog laying down on a dog bed. Her paws are on the edge of the bed with her chin between them. Just off the bed is a ball made of rope. She is looking at the rope ball longingly, with her soft little ears at attention, to ensure that I realise that it is my turn to do something with the ball. She is such a good girl!

11 pm, Saturday night. Mr Teenager is suddenly in the mood to clear out old clothes and toys and organise his bedroom. 🙄 Poor Karla Doggo is TRAUMATISED. It's time for tucky paws!
A not great photo of Karla which doesn't capture how confused and concerned her fave looked. She's on the couch - with her front paws on a quilt and pillow. Her faced looked like she was thinking 'oh woe is me why won't the teenager go to bed!'

Monthly cards at the pub.
Table with cards that say 'Five Crowns' on the back. On the far left in the foreground is the edge of a packet of crisps; on the right in the foreground is a glass of water. In the middle of the photo are hands coming from the left and right. In the background you can see a female torso wearing a black shirt with a skull and tattoos on her left arm. Behind her is an upright piano and an indoor plant. The bar of my local pub on the left side of the photo. The bar is wooden with indoor plants on top and tiled flooring below. On the right side of the photo the floor is carpeted and you can just see some chairs and tables. In the background are 3 men at the bar being served by a woman behind the bar.

Very demure. Very mindful.
#schnauzergang #schnauzer #giantschnauzer
The opposite of demure and mindful: my giant, ridiculous dog rolling on grass - her back legs splayed and her tummy to the sky. The opposite of demure and mindful: my giant, ridiculous dog rolling on grass - her back legs splayed and her tummy to the sky, and her head twisted towards her bottom. At least my ridiculous dog is upright in this, standing in a large open field of grass with almost cloudless sky above. She was happily galloping around between moments spent joyfully - and ridiculously - rolling on the grass.

They came 8th of 10 teams, which doesn't reflect how brilliantly they actually played. I saw SO MUCH development, but for individual players and as a team! Here's some of my boys - rebels all.
8 teenage boy water polo players - standing with a water polo ball next to a sign saying 'no ball games in the pool'.

The Geelong weather is in such a MOOD today! 🙄😫🌧️☀️🌧️🌬️🌊🤽‍♂️
BUCKETING rain hitting a car park - cars parked in the background. Brilliant sun! Water polo coach sitting on the edge of the pool - teenage boy water polo players mostly paying attention to her. Poolside chair is draped in a towel that says 'Honey Badgers' (our club's name). Playing water polo in the pouring rain. In the foreground you can see the coach's hat and arm pointing out at the pool. Caravan park cabins with sunrise showing behind them.

LAST NIGHT WAS SSSSOOOOOO FUCKIN AMAZING!! Tim Minchin opening a new, intimate venue in Sydney near the Lyric Theatre - The Foundry Theatre. We behaved like ADULTS and had ADULT SLUSHIES. And Tim was absolutely outstanding. We laughed. We cried. Our cup was filled. How lucky are we?!
Photo of the stage - keyboard for Tim near the front, other band instruments such as guitars, another keyboard, trumpets, bass guitar, and drums around the stage. Stage empty of humans; I respected the request not to take photos. Pre-concert slushies. They had some sort of alcohol and were fruity. I can't remember what sort of fruits. In the background, you can see a couple enjoying their drinks, and a wall of glass behind them. In the distance is the Sydney Tower thingy. Photo of the poster of Tim Minchin out front of the venue. Tim is hunched up a bit, singing intensely into a microphone. Sign for the Foundry Theatre. Very stylised with rounded letters.

Not today.
Tim Minchin plaque set in concrete footpath in foreground. North Sydney highrises, Luna Park, and the Sydney Harbour Bridge in the background across the water. Clear sky with a few fluffy clouds.

Giant dog beast laying down in a wide, shallow stream meets the beach. There's a line of low surf in the background, wide water past that, and hills in the far distance. The sky is mostly clear.

Tim touristing
A round, bronze place set in the concrete sidewalk. New South Wales Government Theatre Walk. In the centre it says 'Tim Minchin Born 1975, Composer, Lyricist, Performer'. In the foreground is the round, bronze Time Minchin plaque set in the concrete footpath. In the background you can see across to North Sydney highrises, Luna Park, and the Sydney Harbour Bridge. The sky is blue with Buffy clouds.

I'll be at Tri-States too! With the UTas Honey Badgers. It's my 2nd time - such a great comp. 😃 Unfortunately I'm leaving my schnauzer girl at home.
Patting my giant dog beast good bye.

Final cuddles with Karla before being away from her for 3 nights / 4 days!
Giant dog beast sitting next to me on a couch messy with a quilt. The dog is facing away from me so that I can give her bottom scritchies. In the background, you can see a table with a lamp and wwaaayyy too many metal teapots - my husband's annoying collection.

Creating some silly t-shirts for a concert my bestie and I are going to this week!
Outline of a Hyundai with 'TIM IS GOD' splatted on the windscreen. This isn't the final tshirt. It's an image of the cut file I created. Next step is using my computer and a cutting machine to cut out iron-on vinyl.

My ridiculous dog beast loves our bed frame as her chin rest / chin scratcher.
Karla dog with her head resting on metal slats at the foot of our bed that cross. She is ridiculous but sweet.
