I'd like to know how this can possibly be comfortable:

She has the weirdest sleeping positions. I'd wake up with the worst stiff neck ever. This week she figured out how to unzip her crate, so now we have to twist a piece of wire through the zipper when we put her in. This morning, we forgot while we were in the shower, and she managed to get into some of the spinning wool had in the bedroom. I missed it, but Tyson said she looked pretty funny with a big poof of wool hanging out of her mouth. I don't think she ingested anything, but I've been keeping an eye on her poop all day. Silly puppy!

I got my Dye O' Rama yarn the other day from Sherry of ShaylaCanKnit. That's a skein of hand-dyed Cascade 220 in super perky colors, just how I like em!The little wood balls in the bag are lavender balls, to keep the buggies away. Thanks Sherry, can't wait to start a pair of thick winter socks with this! Those colors will keep any gray sky away!

I got a little knitting done on the felted bunny I started a while back at The Knit Affair. I'm determined to get it done by next weekend and give it to my SIL at her shower. This is the Fiber Trends pattern, and it's really well written, easy to knit and understand even though there a are a lot of turns and increases and decreases. It's a quick knit too, thanks to the big needles for felting. I'm pretty sure I'll make it in time unless it's gets really hectic next week. I just hope it dries in time....

This is what our pets reduce us to: keeping an eye on their poop.

Worse is when you have to do more than "keep an eye" on it, like when Tahoe ate part of his blanket and had strings hanging out and was walking in a half crouch-half squat with the "Mommy, mommy, help me, something's wrong with my butt!" look on his face...what's a mommy to do, but pull it out (thank goodness for plastic bags). Of course that results in the "Ack! Mommy! What are you doing!?!" face which is comedy gold.
