Like as in a ...you could be called The Rebelator! <br /> Like as in a person who gets things done. <br /> Well... you are on your way there with your juggling act of home and work. I hope you are enjoying them both AND the $$$$$$. <br /><br />Now... a point of interest. My aunt worked as gourmet cook [cordon bleu] and housekeeper for the Penfolds for many years and knew Rebel well. Told me tales but said they were a lovely family. <br /><br />I laughed at your Puberty Blues reference... Your Mum must be bloody super woman to have dogs and 8 children AND haul them off to shows. Maybe you take after her. I'm waiting for your next post to come up in my Google Reader!!!!Lydia La Lahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11175566681652761270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2016425398956048872.post-3033589574491709992012-03-30T18:39:01.273-07:002012-03-30T18:39:01.273-07:00Oh thank you!
I know, I know... I need to blog. A...Oh thank you!<br /><br />I know, I know... I need to blog. As it turns out, the birth of my blog life happened to co-incide with my return to work life... I'm still in that juggling phase and I may have thrown too many balls in the air. I'm determined to master it all though and seeing as this blog is a little something for me I promise MYSELF that I will squeeze it in!<br /><br />Now, dog shows... well, as a little kid I kind of dug the social aspect of it. There were tonnes of kids and we could pretty much do whatever we wanted while our oldies were otherwise occupied. My family bred Staffordshire Bull Terriers and there were a lot of funny characters associated with that breed. Not quite as polished as the poodle brigade let's just say! However, as I grew older, I realised there was a bit of a social stigma in the school ground about spending ALL weekend with your oldies and dogs. B.O.R.I.N.G. I begged to be allowed to hang down at Cronulla Beach with all my mates. Unfortunately, my parents must have seen Puberty Blues, 'coz that wasn't allowed. Once I got a weekend job though I was free, but I did put in a lot of years ringside prior to that, so it's surprising I never came across another Rebel. <br /><br />Ooh I would have loved to meet a 70 year old Rebel! That would have been cool. There was also the famous Rebel Penfold Russell who I have always heard tonnes about. It's not so much an outside the box name these days. I did hate it though. I'm the 2nd youngest of 8 children and the only one who got an abstract name. They also did me the favour of lumping it with my Grandmothers name, which I love, but teamed with Rebel as a first name makes me sound like a Transformer.<br /><br />REBEL ADA... the Rebelada... see what I mean. Then back to normal again for my younger sister who got Megan Leigh. Meh, it was the 70's I s'pose, who knows what they were on?Rebel Without A Pausehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07426355501650685194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2016425398956048872.post-91835425717698027152012-03-30T16:02:23.028-07:002012-03-30T16:02:23.028-07:00Thanks for following my blog, Rebel. I appreciate ...Thanks for following my blog, Rebel. I appreciate that.<br />So you have a doppleganger.<br /> What a childhood having to go to dog shows. Unless you like it! <br /> I knew a woman called Rebel who would now be 70 or more. How 'outside the square' thinking her mum must have been. I've always loved the name.<br /><br />I was wondering where you had got to and if you were OK. Please don't leave it so long between posts. you've got fans, you know. xoLydia La Lahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11175566681652761270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2016425398956048872.post-80393738500527457602012-03-27T16:12:25.379-07:002012-03-27T16:12:25.379-07:00I'm a narcissist.
I did some further research...I'm a narcissist. <br />I did some further research with other members of our dog show kid gang. One of whom has grown up to be a dog show adult, and she tells me that while none of us actually remember Rebel, her family is a dog show family and breed Beagles.<br /><br />Still hoping there's a royalty cheque mistake in my favour...Rebel Without A Pausehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07426355501650685194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2016425398956048872.post-47943438957082395262012-03-27T10:12:16.317-07:002012-03-27T10:12:16.317-07:00I was actually named after a dog.
