Just Call Me Einstein

It only took three months but it dawned on me the other night that I could use my sister's laptop to upload photos from my camera.  So that's what I just did.  Now I need to go take pictures of a few things and I can get back to blogging.  Yay!

Most of the pictures on my camera were of my orts jar.  This is the only one that did not suck.  So here's my orts jar as of February 2012.  (The stuffed dog came from a local antique store.)

And, here's Lucy.

And, here's Pumpkin.

Yay blogging!  Yay pictures!  Yay Susan's laptop! (I'm a little excited.)

One Year With Lucy

Today is Lucy's Gotcha Day.  Since we don't know her actual birthday, we celebrate the day she was adopted and that was December 1st, 2010.  Here's a picture of Lucy from last January with my empty orts jar.  (Actually, that's not the jar I ended up using.)  She looks like she has a beard.  It's been an interesting year.  At one point, I didn't think we could keep Lucy but things are so much better now and she has turned out to be a great dog.  Ok, she is still a little nuts but we love her so much.

Happy Gotcha Day, Lucy!

Lucy Video

This has nothing to do with embroidery or anything I made. I just needed a place to post a video of Lucy doing her scary tail thing so I can share it with some people.

No More Blogging, Crafting, Reading Or Cleaning For Me

I do believe my blogging, crafting, reading and cleaning days are temporarily over for now.

(I crossed off cleaning since I do believe picking up dog poop and dealing with wet-from-pee newspapers counts as cleaning.)

Yes, there are two new little doggies at my house and all I have been doing for about ten days now is babysitting them.

It's so fun! (Except for the part where one is jealous of the other and there's a lot of growling or the part where one wants to play and the other doesn't understand and there's a lot of growling. Anyone have a number for dog trainer Victoria Stilwell?)

The taller but skinnier of the two, Lucy, will not stop moving long enough for me to get a clear picture of her so I've posted a video of her made by some wonderful shelter volunteers (they called her Minnie). I've also put up the video of Pumpkin (they called her Rosie). You can see both in the two previous posts.

Merry Christmas to me!!

Meet my new doggie, Lucy. (Minnie was her shelter name.)
