Mac


My brothers dog is driving me crazy!!!! I baby sit him 5 days a week. He try's to eat everything. If it fits in his mouth it goes there. You tell him to drop it and he tries to swallow it whole instead. This morning I wake up to find the book I just got in the mail yesterday was his chew toy of choice today. I told him I was going to kill him and he rolls over on his back and grumbles at me. I like to think he was playing dead and letting me know he understood but I fear it was more like "yea whatever lady". I swear to god around this dog you can't even afford yourself the luxury of blinking. One could end up with an eye tick making yourself blink with one eye at a time just so you always have one eye on him. So far this week between my house and his he has chewed up 4 markers, 2 pens, 5 books from off a shelf, a shoe, 2 cat toys, 3 of his toys, a loaf of bread that I didn't see him steal of the table when I was putting groceries away, a box of tissues, the doll I was working on, and bobbin, some cd's and the cases, stuff from out of the trash, a pillow, almost ate a dead bird and more. I accidentally dropped a new spool of thread on the floor and he snatched that up and tried to eat it. It took some doing but I got it away from him. Stupid me I panicked and yelled at him to drop it so he tried to swallow it. I had to fold onto his body with my legs and pry his mouth open with my hands and pull it out of his throat so he didn't choke on it. He's growling at me. I'm yelling at him that if he chokes it permanent cause I don't know the Hiymalick procedure and if he thinks mouth to mouth he crazy because that it isn't happening. I've seen what he puts in there.

Time and how I'm using it
















I've gotten myself in a fix right now with agreeing to do more things then I have the time for and on top of that I have a leg infection. I'm diabetic and get them every few years. They are a real B - - - - to get rid of. I have to stay in bed mostly to keep the swelling down in my legs so that the sores can dry up. It's been weeks now and I'm going out of my mind. I took pictures of my leg. I should post them. Thankfully I'm still able to do some crafting in bed. I've just mailed off some ATC cards today for the Art4Mail group. I have some postcards to make but I'm having some problems getting inspired. It doesn't help much that the street behind my house they are building a bunch of new housing and in front of my house the city is tearing up the road to lay down new pipes so it's noise noise noise from 5am to 6pm. I'm also making some bookmarkers, inchies and quilties for the same group. And for another group I have a RR swap I'm in. I had to make a doll body and mail it to someone else to do the face and hair then it goes to another to finish up. I din't get a picture taken of the body before I mailed it but the swapper I sent her to emailed me a sneak peak picture of her so far she looks great. I made some wings for another swap as you can see in the pictures I have posted around this listing.
