One year with Miss Molly......................

To say she has completely taken over our lives would be an understatement..........especially Popster............she goes everywhere with him now. In fact her nose gets completely bent if he tells her no & leaves her home. She has such an enthusiasm for everything & believes all things are for her entertainment.

There are days when she has me totally frustrated with her...like last Friday. I was working in the garden & she was right underfoot, trampling on my flowers, biting the shovel when I was trying to spread mulch. When I was ready to leave for the golf course she would not come to me & played the "run away" game for about 15 mins to the point where I was so frustrated as I was late. I finally went in the house for a few minutes to "cool off"! After about 5 minutes I opened the back door & there she was laying in the garage with her front legs crossed as if to say "What took you so long"! The only time she crosses her legs is when she is waiting for you.

In spite of all that she really is a very special dog.

Today we have a riddle???

What do you get when you cross a pile of scraps, a sewing machine, a woman possessed, & a husband on a week long golf trip? The following......... This is a tablecloth for my kitchen table....forgot to take the finished pic Cover for my sewing machine...very proud of this as I quilted the whole thing. This is the back....got tired of doing squares! Matching cover for my serger. I meant to post these a while ago & must have forgot. I have done a couple other projects since then which I will get around to posting soon. Had computer problems so I have some catching up to do Love

Sewing, weaving & emptying the waterbed

Monday morning began bright & early as we needed to finish emptying our bedroom. Mark was dropping LiLi off before 8:00am as she does not have school this week. We needed to drain the waterbed before we could take it apart. As usual we were having no luck getting the water to siphon out & even resorted to having LiLi (all 35lbs of her) sitting on it with us!! It probably took over an hour & who knows how many tries before it worked. Got the mattress out & discovered the decking was falling apart.....good thing we decided to do this project,,,,I was able to find a local place so we can just replace it & to be safe I also got a new safety liner & heater. I don't want to be doing this again for a while! While Popster worked on replacing the baseboard & window trim in those two rooms LiLi & I started working on this doll kit she had gotten for her birthday. All the pieces needed to be sewn togeth...

C of O ....Sun Room...Day Twenty Three-Twenty Five

This came in the mail today which made me realize I never posted the last couple days updates. They really all rolled into one as Jim ended up leaving at noon on Weds...it started to snow & didn't work at all on Thurs. Friday he finished things up by lunch time but had to spend the afternoon emptying my garage of all his tools. We had our inspection on Monday which wasn't a problem. It has been so sunny this week so far so it is so nice to sit in there & enjoy the view! Yes Molly hangs out in her a lot.....I have nose prints to prove she looks out of all the windows!
