First Blog Post: An Ode To Poop Bags

   Publishing my first blog post shouldn't be so difficult; nevertheless, I'm consumed with doubt. What should the first topic be? This is too important to mess up.

   Wait a minute, no it isn't. It's not important at all. There are a zillion blogs about everything you can imagine, and mine can be about anything I want! Stop overthinking this, Jana, and just write about what you know.

Let's talk about poop bags!
Yes, I stopped mid-blog to scoop this poop and take this photo.
   Here at Circus Stella, we have five rescued dogs and let me tell you, they poop. A LOT. So much poop. It's great when they poop in the woods. We can just leave it there to become one with the nature, but it's inevitable they'll poop in places where poop shouldn't be. Then one must employ a trusty poop bag! I wrote a poem about the experience.

When you have a lot of dogs
You’ll have to pick up many logs
As their butts begin to hunch
Pluck a poop bag from the bunch
Be it large or be it dinky
Hold your nose, it’s gonna be stinky
Scoop it up and tie it off
Before the scent begins to waft
If you think you’re done, not so fast
This is your life now, that wasn't the last
Make your peace with all scooping
The dogs are worth it, happy pooping!

   Let's get down to it. I'd like to blog about more than poop bags. In fact, I have another poem here if you like that sort of thing, and there are loads of other ideas floating around in my brain: from our camper van conversion, to our circus tour, finances, and our rescue dogs. 

When it's relevant, I'll share the products we use and link them here. Full disclosure, if you click on these links and purchase something, anything, even if it isn't what we recommended, Circus Stella will get a small kick back! Every penny counts, so thank you for shopping via the links below:
