I once saw a pin that said, “I have a lot of dogs to make up for those that don’t.” I should have bought it. Have you ever seen this commercial? Click on the first option. Never fails to make me cry. Austin has been begging me to submit Shiloh’s pictures to the Daily Puppy...

The Pictures
I quickly snapped up shots of the basement before it gets trashed. We haven’t finished putting everything down there. If I had my way the plasma would go down there, at least until we do our family room addition. Our poor house, a never ending work in progress. I love the sparse look it has...
The Basement
is done. The floor is down and sealed and now we are waiting the mandatory three days for it to “cure”. I am anxious to get some furniture down there and move the toys down there. Pictures to come. Not much news to report, doing a lot of sewing. Turn around time is still 3-4...
Studio Envy
As I ponder and plan a new larger studio I have been visiting Flickr for ideas on craft rooms Organization and just general art studio ideas. But look no further because the ultimate inspiration is HERE Andy take note. Her husband built most of it for her. The reality is that mine could never look...
Fun Day
So I started the day with a root canal. Which is always fun. A couple hours later I was back at the dentist because the temporary filling they put in the tooth fell out. Got that fixed and headed over to the DMV to get a new license. While I am waiting my turn, I...
Thanks Grandma and Grandad!
It’s almost time to take the in-laws to the airport. I hope they enjoyed their time in the snow. Grandad taught Blake how to play a couple songs on his guitar and Blake is thrilled. I hear him in there playing now and singing, “all the girls in France do a little jiggly dance.” Hmmmmm....
Sunday
Hanging on the couch with Austin and two doglets. Waiting for the rest of the family to get up. Word on the street is that we are heading out to Big Boy with the Grandparents for some breakfast. Always an adventure. So Shiloh is getting an attitude and even Barley is getting a little tired...
5 degrees
Can you believe it? It has warmed up. Who would have thought that 5 degrees would be warmer than, well, anything… but this morning it was -1. We are enjoying the coldest February ever on record for the state of Ohio. Insane. I sure hope Grandma and Grandad packed warm clothes. They are in for...
Superman
In an effort to rid myself of the 10 pounds that I have gained in the last year (let’s just say sewing all day is not really good for your figure) and despite what my sweet father-in-law says about me being too skinny before and looking better now (see now you know why my husband...
Happy V-day!
And yes we are still snowed in! The kids and dogs are out romping in the snow. And it is still actually snowing! I think we are up to 8 or so inches, which isn’t a ton but enough to slow things down around here. This is the last “calamity” day for our school district. ...
