Have you ever come across an online game that just grabs your attention? Although it's wildly simple in many ways, this silly little game to test your reflexes and clicking skills will let you know how sharp your senses are in in under a minute....

Today was a pretty long day. We went to see the house at 10 am this morning and met with an architect while we were there. He was pretty much useless which is always great for someone making €150 an hour and we could have done without him being there altogether. But...

Ayla lost her second tooth today (that we've noticed anyway). She was all wound up around 7 pm and was playing in the yard with her yellow kong (which I finally freed from its frozen ice prison) and decided it would be great fun to run full force into the bushes which...

The reason a dog has so many friends is that he wags his tail instead of his tongue. -Anonymous Don't accept your dog's admiration as conclusive evidence that you are wonderful. -Ann Landers If there are no dogs in Heaven, then when I die I want to go where they went....
