Watch Recommendation: "Muster Dogs"

By


I consider myself an Olympic champion of surfing streaming channels. I came across the series, "Muster Dogs" on Netflix. It follows the training of 5 kelpie puppies. If you're not familiar with the art of mustering (not to be confused with mustarding which is when I drown my potato salad in mustard), it's the training of dogs to herd livestock. 

The series follows 5 kelpie puppies as they are trained to become musters. It shows the work, love, and dedication of the dogs and trainers. Watching the puppies grow up and kick ass as herders is amazing.

The series also discusses that using herding dogs is a sustainable practice for the land and considerably stressful on the livestock. Herding dogs have been used for centuries by farmers throughout the world. 

If you enjoy dogs (who doesn't), learning something new, and seeing the scenery of Australia's farm country, then check it out.

BTW: I am not receiving compensation from for this recommendation. Neither is my dog. So there.

  Here we are: the shortest day of the year, the longest night. Nature is slowly but surely continuing its cycle of rebirth and we will see brighter days ahead. It's the perfect time to reflect on the past year and consider what kind of light you'd like to bring into your life. A time of hope and renewal. I wish you all a happy Solstice!

OPEN POST: Manor Music Monday With Barbara Cartland!

Are you off work yet? Are you ready to throw a swingin' party? That means making party music mixes, right? And, yes, you must throw in a WTF song in the middle of the mix just to mess with everyone. For example, say you're throwing a New Years Eve party with a bunch of cooler-than-cool jazz or house music tracks; in the middle if it, throw in this song . I guarantee everyone will squeal with delight. In fact, throwing that song into any mix is always a good move.  Want more ideas for WTF songs to drop into your mixes? DJ Li'l Scratch has got you covered. But first, let's pause for a moment. This is important. Why? Because this is the definition of beauty: The face: like a pale, English Cream Custard (which is just a bit overcooked). The jewelry: made from the finest diamonelles money can buy. The eyes: with their exquisite baby tarantula eyelashes (the eye shadow is their after-birth). I'm overcome, I can barely breathe. And, no, this is not RichBitch. She is, of c...

OPEN POST: Take a Breath, Why Don't Ya?

Lots of holiday rigamarole commences next week, so if you can, carve out an hour or so today just for you . If you're lucky enough to have a puddytat, observe their silliness and play with them; if you have a dog, take them for a walk or to a dog park. And if you're bereft of furry creatures, take yourself for a walk, stop at a cafe, and drink a hot cup of joe or a cocoa - but without looking at your phone. Just sip, clear your mind, and do some Cyclic Breathing. Have you ever tried it? It's my favorite breathing technique: inhale deeply through your nose, follow immediately with a second breath (you can do it), hold it all in for a sec, then very slowly exhale through your mouth. Repeat several times. The slooooow exhale is what makes it so very relaxing, I promise. Cyclic Breathing is different from other breathing-type exercises because it involves a double inhalation and a long, even audible exhale.  But, hey, whatever brings you a few moments of peace today is worth do...
