standard poodles get a bit of a bad rap for being prisses. stereotype, consider yourself corrected.

poodle the 13th

stormy friday the 13th and the hairs on my arm dance with energy.
13 has been a magical number since the Egyptians. believing that there were twelve steps on the ladder to eternal life and knowledge and to take the thirteenth step meant going through into everlasting life.


significances of the number 13;

• there are thirteen Moon cycles in a year
  
• ancient Lunar calendar had 13 months
• traditional coven has 13 members
• romans require 13 guests be present at weddings
• in the Hebrew faith age 13 is considered to be an adult
• there are 13 players on a rubgy team
  
• there are 13 cards of each suit in a deck of cards
• last but not least, one day I will be a mother to 13 poodles .

if you are drawn and held captive by superstition then rember that bad luck at home can be avoided by never washing blankets during the waxing May moon. - according to the good spell book



all your fears gone in the darkest hour
our hidden eyes can still see so well

here is some haunting imagery to inspire and devour:

the black blanket of the
night
shall comfort you

it will be warm
it will be so lovely

This poodle dances better than lady gaga. hypnotic!

I wish today was poodle day!!

I love poodles.

quality lyrics by JesikuhBlah:
when you are a poodle, there is not much concern.
They are fluffy, they are nice.
and don't need to worry about tax returns.
Poodles are incredible, they will take over the world.
one day, their dictating plan will unfurl.
but you should still want a poodle,
it will be necessary one day, that you do.
for, if you don't own a poodle, they will turn you into stew/one day own you!

this is a dog.

Ah, a new year and with spring just sniffing around the corner, I am feeling a change. A change of hair perhaps. ssssomething different. luckily, I have a fantastic back up in the locks department and she creates art! Sully@Hairroin Salon

Now this lead me to thinking about the varieties of poodle groomers and how quickly they can go from really great to horrible terrible down right rotten. Thanks to yelp we can now help warn each other. even worse it is usually the owners who turn them into hot messes.

classy.

they go with my purse

my personal favorite; zombie poodle!

and this adorable thing is a Bedlington Terrier.

he can try and be a poodle all he wants
