Tuesday Stuff

Just a quick post about my contest goodies. Nancy has started another group on Yahoo. This one is a little different. Hooks n Needles is a crafty group....knitting, crochet, sewing, quilting, cross stitch, plastic canvas.....you get the idea. So far, she's doing great! I really like that the KALs aren't strictly dishcloths. Our first KAL was the Pocketbook Slippers from Alli. It's a nice friendly group and pretty relaxed. Mary and I guessed correctly what the KAL was so we won some nice goodies....I got a nice pair of the slippers (that I've already worn...very comfy) and a KnitSimple magazine (my first one) and an awesome bag. This is a huge bag! I could fit so much stuff in this bag. Thanks, Nancy! She gives awesome prizes!


Got some more rain here today...not a lot but just enough to cool things off a bit. Not that it was really hot to begin with. It's a cool 80 degrees now with a nice breeze blowing. Maggie and I spent some time outside this afternoon before the rain started just running around playing. Unfortunately, she sniffed around and found herself an anthill...fire ants no less. Her little paws and snout were covered in a matter of seconds. Luckily, Ms Thang saw it ASAP and grabbed her up and brought her to me. I got all the nasty buggers off and she was fine and raring to go again. I think she actually wanted to go back to the anthill. She must be a glutton for punishment. I didn't let her....those things are vicious! My sister gave her a little plastic ball and she's a very happy camper now.(except for knocking over the water bowl playing with it)


I almost forgot to show you the other new babies. Three new kitties. They're really cute and man can they get around! They've been eating solid food already and they are so funny to watch out there playing. Time to find them some good homes now while they're all cute and irresistible. :P

Back to the bags!
Hugs!

Our Beautiful Baby

After I picked the kids up from school today...I decided to stop back by the Animal Shelter and visit our baby again. The kids weren't with me yesterday when I picked her out so I wanted them to meet her. It's going to seem like forever until Monday when she gets to come home....they were so excited to see her. Our little one doesn't have a name yet....still thinking on that...she's scheduled to be "fixed" on Monday morning and Monday afternoon...it's off to her new home. She's a German Shepherd/Husky Mix and about 3 months old. I had to get some better photos so I could share the cuteness with you. Those sleeping pictures just didn't do her justice. So, here you are.........

Look at that face!

She didn't seem to mind anything we did....passing her around for snuggling....twisting and turning for photos....she really seems to have a calm, gentle nature.

Nothing like rescuing a puppy to make you feel good. It wasn't hard to pick one...she choose me...the hard part now....picking the perfect name. You'll be the first to know.

*still knitting on my green pool bag and adding to my list of colors I need....neighbors daughter has to have one!!*

Hugs!!
