NERO’S BIRTHDAY!

October 3, 2011 by Teje

VOF VOF VOF!!!

Welcome to read my post today! You know what … I had my birthday! Iiik … can you believe we forgot it, that’s just awfull! My birthday was 28.9.2011 and I am now 7 years! Today ‘someone’ was in the bakery shop and saw those funny candles with numbers you can put on the cake … and then she remembered me!

This day didn’t begin the best way because I needed ear-cleaning, but then we played with my favorite ball. Which is by the way now broken so perhaps I get a new one for my belated birthday present!

I don’t know what there is with the balls, but I just love them! Any kind … even some happy colour balls made with fabrics …

… and here I am jumping to catch all my … what … 7 flying balls – unbelievable coincidence – I’m having my 7th birthday and I have 7 balls – we didn’t plan this, really!

To celebrate my birthday, we went to our secret doggie box and found smoked pig’s ears!

This is so great – delicious and good for cleaning my teeth! I’m lying in my favourite place front of the house. From here I can see most of the garden and the street. I have to take care all the time if someone trys to pass my home!

And I have to take care of Hanna. First she runs with her pig’s ear to the grass and hides it there and then she comes back and waits to catch mine if I leave it for a second – oh my sweet girls – I’m always willing to share my goodies with you. Do you see behind me a huge piece of fabric - 10 metres! We just washed it to be ready when we need it for something.

Here it is the ‘Jumping Dog’ pillow. This is my favourite! But all the scrabby pillows we have made with dogs and cats are so funny!

If you thought the other day that we showed you big shrimps, I tell you they were not so big. Now I shall show you BIG shrimps …

Even the big pizza plate is not big enough for these fellows. Wow they smell fantastic - I was helpping to clean them …

Hey, where you go, should I do something with these?

Sorry, I had to run out to pick the fabric and the small rugs we washed in the morning, because it’s raining! Just a little bit and now I think it almost stopped. It was only ‘one minute’ rain and now the sun is shining!

In the evenings I sit often at the computer and read your blogs and e-mails! I enjoy that with a good ‘ham and cheese sandwich’ …

Now I go to continue my celebration and play a little bit more with my ball. I love also the ‘hiding’ game. We hide the ball or goodies and then I go to find them! I’ll ask to play that, too!

Thank you for joining my belated birthday celebration! I wish I could send you cake and goodies, but instead I send you my big big hugs and lots of kisses!!!

Happy Birthday, Nero!! You have to love people who love their pets. We have two dogs, as well, but they are English Cocker Spaniels, so not quite as big as you guys are, Nero.

Teje, the pillows are adorable. Lovely work! Hugs!

Happy Birthday, Nero! And I hope you have many more. Our Ginger is 13 now and having health problems, but we enjoy every moment with her.

I love your pillow covers! So adorable.

A Happy belated birthday dear Nero, you are such a lovely kind boy…here’s to lots more! What a wonderful life you live with your girls. Teje has been very clever and made some beautiful cushions with cats and dogs…they are lovely. Enjoy playing with your ball and your smoked pig’s ear. I think I would love to eat some of those enormous shrimps, I do enjoy seafood.

Happy birthday Nero! What a great day to celebrate! Love that appliqué pillow project in honor of Nero. Can’t think of a better way to celebrate than with lobster.

Happy Birthday to Nero! My dogs Buddy and Lucy do the same things with bones except Lucy hides hers, usually in my daughters bed and then she mopes around watching Buddy eat his bone. They’re so funny.

  Thank you Petra! Today we had small bones and I was eating mine slowly and Hanna was all the time next to me trying to take it! Even small Foxy was waiting to take mine! Hugs to Buddy and Lucy! x Nero

Happy birthday!! 7 years, but a lot more in dog-year!!? What a big shrimps?? Never seen them before. Are they common in Greece?? Do you barberque them? Do you know the Norwegian shrimps?? They are tiny….. You have to peel a lot on one piece of bread:-) But we love them. Why are I talking about food!? Because I love the taverna life…….. During the two years I spend in Athens, we loved the Tavernas- or we called them tabepna- terrible wrong, he he.Good memories……AnneKari:-)

  Hi Anne and thank you for your birthday wishes! We don’t have so big shrimps in Greece, these became from more far. But those shrimps I showed earlier are our common shrimps – of course there are many sizes to smaller also. But the tiny shrimps I have seen in Finland, they use here just for fishing! I’m happy to hear that you have good memories from your stay in Athens. Perhaps we see you one day in Chania? X Nero

Dear Nero – I am so sorry to be late in wishing you a happy birthday. You are such a beautiful dog, I always wish I could throw my arms around your neck and bury my face in your beautiful coat. The pillows are wonderful – colorful, funny, and a perfect scrappy design. I am also a scrap quilter – it is my favorite kind of quilting. but I haven’t done any of it for three or so years now. I’ve been knitting and doing genealogy instead. There is so much life to live. And you are a perfect age. My little dogs are almost three years old now. And the two old men were almost fourteen when they decided it was time to go back to God. So you are both wise and young – the best place.

  Thank you Kristen! You could hug me as much you like because I just love having friends and hugging them! But be careful I loose a lot hair – I mean a lot! We need to brush every day and still there are tassels fur tufts around the house. We do love patchworks and sewing and of course knitting! Give hugs to your lovely dogs! x Nero

Happy Birthday, Nero! You are just the best boy–so beautiful and generous to your girls. My Lady Caroline Lamb (my poodle girl who looked like a little lamb when she came to our forever home) and her naughty little buddy Arthur (who steals everyone clothes) send you hugs and wish you many more years to play in your garden and to help Teje.

Hello Web Admin, I noticed that your On-Page SEO is not that great, for one you do not use all three H tags in your post, also I notice that you are not using bold or italics properly in your SEO optimization. On-Page SEO means more now than ever since the new Google update: Panda. No longer are backlinks and simply pinging or sending out a RSS feed the key to getting Google PageRank or Alexa Rankings, You now NEED On-Page SEO. So what is good On-Page SEO?First your keyword must appear in the title.Then it must appear in the URL.You have to optimize your keyword and make sure that it has a nice keyword density of 3-5% in your article with relevant LSI (Latent Semantic Indexing). Then you should spread all H1,H2,H3 tags in your article.Your Keyword should appear in your first paragraph and in the last sentence of the page. You should have relevant usage of Bold and italics of your keyword.There should be one internal link to a page on your blog and you should have one image with an alt tag that has your keyword….wait there’s even more Now what if i told you there was a simple WordPress plugin that does all the On-Page SEO, and automatically for you? That’s right AUTOMATICALLY, just watch this 4minute video for more information at. WordPress Seo Plugin

  Thank you for your interest and taking the time to write! I try to learn everything here on my own because I don’t have some one to help with these computer and blogging things. That’s why I do appreciate any advice and information someone is willing to give!
