Welcome to my blog

Hi guys...
Well, this is my first blog and I hope I know what I'm doing. As most of you did when you first discovered blogging, you kind of learn on the fly...so be gentle with me.
Just a little about me and this blog: I'm a former high school teacher and principal here in Plano...which is a suburb just north of Dallas. I was in education for almost 20 years, but for the past 18 years I've been with Jostens (we're the yearbook and ring people). I've been married to my wife, Cathy, for almost 40 years and our house is run by two chocolate Labs...Belle and Chloe. And these two insane dogs are the reason for this blog.
Last Christmas I wrote a bunch of short stories about Belle and Chloe, and I gave them to Cathy for Christmas. Over the next few months dozens of friends, relatives, former students, co-workers...you name 'em...well, they told me I should write a book about the two dogs. And that's what I did. It's already in my publisher's hands, and hopefully by the first of the year, it'll be available at my website (http://www.belleandchloe.com/) and at Amazon. And this blog will not only be about Belle and Chloe, but some of the blogs will probably be written by Belle (just like in the book).
Rest assured my future blogs will be much shorter than this one, but I felt I needed to give you a bit of background before I start this journey. I hope you all enjoy it. DW
