I just read my blog posts from 2010. Keep in mind I started this blog in order to document guide dog school for the benefit of my students and others that I knew at Miami. In reading them now, seven years later, I see that my writing is similar, that I focus on one or two ideas in service of a larger idea and that I like to read my thoughts. Also, Bethany, while not exactly the best guide dog for me, retains her cute sweet demeanor and sometimes bratty disposition, I.e. ripping a toy from another dog’s mouth is so Bethany… She did it to Randall, she does it to Bear. She is just not a dog who likes to share. I am also a person who likes to accentuate the positive, glass half full or, perpetually positive, if you will? That well alliterated name still sticks. Thank you JS Bragg. Even today, I am happy to have those words attached to my name.
