Bailey's just trying to keep you young:p:p:p:p:p
I am so glad she is fine, has been a tough week for both of you.:(:(
Do you ever see that commerical on TV for men asking if they have "LOW T"? Well, how come they don't have a commerical like that for women asking do you have "LOW "E"?
Life was sure easier 10 years ago!!!!!!!:p:p:p:p:p:p:p:p
i still think you trip will be fun!!!!
Love ya,
Addy
Happy Saturday to all you workers!:D
Bailey got her medication about 1-1/2 hours ago and she and I are up in the studio.....she is crashed on one of those snuggle bed/balls. I won't hear a peep out of her for a few hours.:)
I am getting ready to finish up a stained glass piece and then make a number of stepping stones. There is a path between our house and one of our neighbors and it can be muddy (sea level you know.) I have placed two stepping stones there and have never finished the job. Now is time to do it. I have to be inside anyway, due to the heat, and once I get rolling, I should be able to punch several out.
Bailey remains fine. The only time we perceive she is in pain is when she needs to crouch to poop. I'm still amazed at how well she has done.:D
love,
Susan
Oh, I am glad Bailey is doing fine, Susan. What a time she has had.
Always hard to see down and out.
What fun to make stepping stones with Little Miss cudlling with you.
A picture perfect day!!!!
Enjoy your Sunday!!!
Love,
Addy
Happy Monday to All!!!
So glad Miss Bailey is hanging there with little pain!!! I think sometimes I revert back to how trained Maddie was and forget it was a process, but it all came together. It is just that you think it should go faster because you know more this time around. Susan you are right though, they are all different dogs so what worked for one doesn't always work for the other.
Addy, we WILL think back to "WHAT WERE WE THINKING" and say it was worth it. Right now I don't even want to think about another one in the near future (maybe 3 years or so; so I won't have an empty nest when one decides it is time to leave). Who knows what we will do--concentrate on the one we have now...:eek::D:p
Enjoy the rest of the week--heat and all. It is SUMMER--my favorite time!!!
Woof woof and Happy Wednesday Susan and Bailey:):):):)
Stopping by to say hi and ask how those stepping stones are coming along?
How is Miss Bailey, back to full speed after her surgery?
Enjoy your day!!!!!
Love,
Addy
Hi Addy!
Miss Bailey is definitely back up to speed. We just came inside from me chasing a Frisbee. (?)
Stepping stones-I think this has a lot to do with why I keep putting this off......I ruined two letter paper sizes of glass trying to get the cuts I need. :mad: I'm making a frog....caricature, I guess. And despite all I have purchased over time, I still don't have all the tools yet. I tried cutting circles and they don't look too bad, but I wanted them to be perfect round circles.
Yesterday I went over to my local store and she showed me what I was doing wrong with this particular glass and how to get the cuts I need. She also showed me a circle cutter which is really cool......but how many circles will I be making? I realized, thankfully, before I left to ask her to cut me two circles. The sizes don't have to be exact, since it's a stepping stone. So-I have more, different glass to cut, some more of the hard stuff to cut and two nice big black circles (for the eyes.) I plan to make at least 5 more stepping stones so I'll post pictures when they're done.
The glass cutting is frustrating, but the only way you get better at it is to do more of it. I had some good luck on my first few projects and I guess I expected it to always go that smoothly. By the time I run out of all the glass I have, if I'm not much better I'll give it up. I have a ton of glass. My first project (well second one) is of a duck and I have him perched on a piece of driftwood. I've had many, many compliments on that one. I'll take a picture of that.
I made this really cool picture, with a jewel in the center, and it was wonderful. I hung it up in the studio. Days later I heard this loud thud upstairs. I had no idea what it could have been, went to look, and couldn't find anything. Several days later I realized the piece had fallen on the floor. A number of pieces in it were broken. I got so mad about it I just threw the whole thing out. :mad::mad: I should have put it away and much later just repaired it. :(
That's a pretty long answer to "how is it going?":)
I hope it's going well for you. I think of you often.
Love,
Susan
Happy Thursday you sleepy heads! You are past hump day. Only two to go.
We are in for a whole week of weather only in the 80s. Time to get the red sweaters out!!
Love,
Susan
Happy Friday!!!!!
We are to get cooler weather next week also. Maybe I will be able to pull some weeds:D:D:D:D
Did you pack for your trip yet? I still think you will end up having a good time. Just think of all the beautiful scenery you will see. And you and Bob can sing "On the Road Again":D:D:D:D:D Or play 'I see something yellow":p:p:p:p:p:p:p:p:p:p:p:p:p
You might just end up in "them thar hills" and decide to stay there!!!
I wonder if Carrol is okay and her pups? I think about her and wish I knew if she was okay. I don't think her machine worked or she would have come back to say hi.
We don't see the new vet for a few weeks yet so I will give a report as soon as I can.
Mom may have a minor fracture on her ninth rib:eek::eek::eek::eek: They are not sure.
Always something at my house.
Hugs,
Addy
Hi Addy-
I'm gardening today. 78 and not too bad humidity. I can't tell you when I last "gardened." I've only fed and sprayed for at least 2 years. :(
I think I will enjoy the trip as well and no I have not packed yet. I am a day-before packer. We are going to tour the Ford Estate in Detroit, Niagara Falls on the Canadian side and the big crystal manufacturer....the name escapes me right now. I hope to be able to blow and fire my own vase. Corning glass........that's the place. It's only 2 days with the neighbors. I just don't like getting boxed into this. When people come over in the winter with a blank calendar and ask when you can come......you get the idea.
And I don't like leaving Bailey, but I am very comfortable with where she will be.
Ouch for your Mom. I bet that hurts.:eek:
I wish I knew how Carrol was as well. Someday she'll pop up....in her red sweater. :)
Hugs to you!
Sus
Hay Sas?
I need some help. Bailey is pulling so hard on the leash that she is walking on her hind legs.:mad: When we go to put her harness on her to go for a walk, she bounces around making it impossible to catch her. :mad: When company comes, she's all over them. :mad::mad: As I said before, I tried the treats when walking, but she just won't focus.:( Sometimes I can get her to sit....not always.:confused: If I walk with her and call her name, with authority and pull back on the leash, she will kind of come back---that or I just catch up to her. After that she's off and pulling just as hard. :mad: It's like every two steps I'm calling her name and pulling back. :mad:We're running out of patience here. :(:(
Thanks.
Susan
