This story strikes close to home because it happened in CT and happened to a dachshund 🙁 Woman, Dog Attacked by RottweilerI'm a dog person. Love dogs. All breeds, even though there are some I would not keep as a pet, that's my own opinion. It's so sad when something like this happens.

Playtime (Dogs on Thursday)
Jackson is a very playful dog - part of that clown-around-dachshund personality. We've always had toys for him, and ever since he was a puppy we've had our own version of "fetch". We throw the toy. He runs after it. He picks it up, brings it back and doesn't let go! We're working on it… Continue reading Playtime (Dogs on Thursday)
Brrr.
Woke up this morning and noticed it was cold. Not too surprising for New England in April, but to look at the thermostat and see it reading "56" instead of "64" was a surprise!

I'm surrounded by my knitting projects in progress and… Continue reading Evaluation

Jackson was kind enough to model:Did you notice? There's no dropped stitches! I dropped as instructed when binding off, but they did not… Continue reading Knits
Special Delivery
I ordered a gift for my cousin's fiancee's bridal shower. It's a fragile gift, but I was still surprised when the HUGE box arrived on our porch. And of course, it was full of styrofoam peanuts. First thought? Annoyance. Second thought? Great photo op!
