Art & Soul Video ~ Love, Simply ~ Do You Know The "Kissing" Technique? If Not, Check Out This Video!

I thought I would share another Art & Soul video with you today. This one is an older one but has lots of great ideas. The video is called "Love, Simply". I thought this video was right on time with Valentine's Day right around the corner. At the end of the video they do talk about a special deal you can get...but since it's an older video the deal is no longer available...just thought I should mention it. But some of the items they do talk about are still available. They also share ideas using the "Kissing" technique. So, overall, some fabulous ideas! Go grab a snack, sit back, and enjoy a few minutes of fun video time!!

~"What counts is not necessarily the size of the dog in the fight; it's the size of the fight in the dog." (Dwight D. Eisenhower)   

~"In dog years I'm dead."  

~"Old dogs, like old shoes are comfortable. They might be a bit out of shape and a little worn around the edges, but they fit well."

~"No matter how little money and how few possessions you own, having a dog makes you rich."  

~"He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog. You are his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion."

I thought I would share some "dog" type quotes today. While I was on Facebook today I saw a cute link to name some puppies and help a local dog rescue raise money at the same time. I've included the link so you can check it out too! I thought it was such a great idea! And then it had me looking at my doggy...so here are quotes to go with photos I plan to take of my furface. Anyway, don't forget to stop back again for more quotes next week...and I wanted to add...no idea who or where I got these quotes...I've been saving them to use for my scrapbook pages / cards.
