Just Barely Festive

 

I made a little Thanksgiving bow for Meg to wear.  That's all the sewing I managed yesterday.

Just a random strip left over from the orange bullseye quilt, the corners rounded and zig-zagged around the edge.

Only just barely festive, as seen here with a smiling DS in the backyard at my parent's house. 

She was on leash because of the coyote pair that lives there. They just cruise back and forth right next to the patio in the unfenced yard, hunting for rabbits and apparently not bothering with the gophers.

Naps to Destruction

 

Yesterday morning snuggle pile.

Thursday afternoon snuggle pile with all three characters. Are you sensing a theme?

This one surprised me, usually it takes a lot of encouraging for all three of them to be settled down so near to each other. But they did this all on their own. Their settled alliances are still changing I guess.

The remains of the scratching ramp. Note all the catnip all over the floor. It was rough hour or so before Korben calmed down. We may have given him a tad too much this time.

Meg's Dream Finally Comes True

 It was a day she always knew was coming, she never gave up hope.

Someday there would be a pancake just for her.

And when that day arrived she couldn't believe it.

She waited to make sure that this was really a pancake meant for her.

And then she ate it up in a few bites.

The Happy Ending We All Deserve

Walk Walk Walk

 We walk in the morning.

 We walk all the time

 Up and down our very hilly street

We parade up and down the street

again and again

And again, every single day,

Sometimes twice

We are very very tired.

Signed, Meg

Meet Meg

And now....introducing....Meg!  Our new puppy.  We just adopted her from the SPCA yesterday.

She's nine months old, and is a Corgi/Spaniel mix, about 25 pounds.  Not sure how much bigger she'll get.  At this point she's enjoying hanging out, sniffing out her new place, getting used to riding in the car on our windy roads and not being stuck in the very noisy chaotic animal shelter.  I've never had such a young dog before, so any and all puppy training tips are welcome.
It is so wonderful having a dog in the house once again.  The cats unfortunately do not agree. Too bad for them though, she's here to stay. Lucky for them I have a big enough lap.
