New fence blues

            
This is so upsetting. Three planks of our brand new fence have fallen down. One plank was easily noticeable behind the grill. The other two planks, also pictured here behind the trees, were side by side and created a large enough opening for our girls to escape. This was in the backyard and was not easily seen. We have had strong winds and such, but still.. this fence has a 30 year warranty (or something like that). Thankfully, we are having the yard re-seeded and leveled, so the doods have been on the leash to potty for the past 24-48 hours. I can't imagine going through another experience like the loss of Max and Zola...this fence was supposed to be our security from that. What the hell. Rio Grande fence guy is coming Thursday. Stay tuned. 

Tab's knit project finished!

Here's Tabitha holding a finished knitted skirt she made for a sweet 4 (or 5) year old. Can you believe she knitted this? So cute!

Grace's new chew bone

Yes, it's a dinosaur. We spared no expense.

Teacup update

Yesterday, Teacup was sadly returned to her owner. It's sad because he apparently wasn't a stand up guy. Guess that's the way things go...I feel sad for Kristina, who kept Teacup for a week. She took her to the vet. Found out Teacup might be pregnant, had ringworm, and earmites and still fell in love with her. Next time I see a dog in the middle of the road, will I think twice about picking it up? Probably not...it was likely the best week of Teacup's little life.

Teacup

Teacup Chihuahua



I found this little one today, standing in the middle of Alexandria Drive, on my home for lunch. So tiny! I took her to my vet, no collar, no microchip, nothing. She's about a year old, weighs 3 lbs (I think that's pushing it), and was starving...my vet said she was mine to do with what I wanted if no one claimed her - yikes!! I've left a message at the humane society, vets office, etc, hoping to find her owner. She is definitely someone's dog.
So, my problem was deciding what to do with her TONIGHT. I'm pretty sure Grace and Bailey thought she was a squeaky toy, or a treat, or both.

So, I brought her into the office. There were 3 people interested in her!! She went home today with a lovely co-worker named Christina, who was tickled pink and already in love. She agreed to keep her temporarily and permanently if her owner can't be found.

That's my good deed for the week. I'm exhausted.

Tomato seedlings

These are my tomato seedlings, inside by the window in the dining room. Notice that one is suspiciously missing...how in the heck did they do that??!
