You have how many?????

I decided about a year ago I wanted a scarf rack & kinda figured out how I would make it but it kept getting pushed to the bottom of my to-do list. 

I decided this winter it was going to be done.  One day while I was out with Popster we stopped at Lowes & I got a 4 x 4 cedar post & that round "dohicky thingy" for the top.  It sat in the garage for a few weeks & I finally decided to get started.  I wanted to borrow a sander from Scott but when he found why he suggested that I send the post over to his house with Popster.....remember he's the one with that beautiful big barn that has a very impressive wood working shop.  Later that day I get a text message from Scott  "Do you have a picture of what you are trying to make?"  My message back was "Yes I do but it's in my head"  Then my phone phone rang!

I had known that just the round "dohicky thingy" wasn't right for the top which is why he was calling.  I knew he would come up with what it needed so told him to do his thing!


Look at what he created.....it was just perfect & was the way I pictured it. 

A couple coats of paint, hooks & some glue & I now have my scarf rack
 There's room for 7 scarves on each side & I couldn't fit them all on it.....I guess I need to start attending SA meetings!

    Wow. It is gorgeous.

    You have a lot of scarves...like a lot of scarves. Do you have an extra neck or two?

    But what about Popster? If he had one of those for his hats I bet he wouldn't lose them.

Designer "doggy uggs"

Poor Molly has been having a hard time already this winter with the snow. She has good size pads on her feet which are "webbed" like a lab's foot.  When she goes in the snow it builds up in between her pads & forms a hard piece of almost ice-like snow.  Then she holds her foot up for someone to pull it out.  I decided to make her her own boots. Jessica had spent the night here as we went to First night for new years....more on that later.....so we "googled" how to make dog boots & then modified it to work for Molly.  Keep in mind these were boots you could make in 10 minutes.  It took approx 10 mins to measure Molly's feet.  Two hours later here's the results I did decide to make her 2 for each foot figuring she would be like any typical kid & lose a couple here & there. We had to go to W*lmart in the middle of the project to get velcro to make the fasteners.  We then made her wear them around the house for a while ...

Work, cat bites. hospital.....

After a long winter I went back to work on Thurday & as usual it was crazy with the phone ringing off the wall!  The weather wasn't that great but golfers in the northeast are like caged animals who are finally free!  We had good weather predicted for the weekend & I was scheduled to work both days.  After a very long day Saturday I finally got done around 8 pm & was meeting Popster & Jess in Ballston Spa at a surprise birthday party for Jeff & Colby.  Jess met me in the parking lot & said she was leaving as she had also worked all day.  She showed me her arm where she had been bitten by a cat earlier at work.  She had gone to urgent care & they gave her antibiotics & she went back to work. Before I left for work Sunday at 5:30am I woke her up to look at it & didn't like the way it was swelling up.  I told if it didn't look better when I got home at lunch we were going back to urgent care. This is what it was...
