At work my coworker mentioned how slow it's going to be for the next little bit. She said something about bringing my crocheting. So i tho't i *would* find a new project to start. I found this snowflake afghan that is pretty simple. I did up a sample square and found it was something that would work well for work - making a bunch of snowflakes then adding a border around each before whip stitching them together. I'll probably use a more turquoise blue - maybe even an aqua like you see in snowbanks of fresh snow. We'll see. I have 3 snowflakes made already. http://www.artoftangle.com/snowflake.htm Nope - looks like i'm gonna be a bit late. In other news...... LOL I've been thinking about getting a dog lately. I'd like something like a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. Not too big but more than a drop-kick kinda dog. Not too long-haired but has to withstand heat and cold. And the biggest thing is it can't need a lot of exercise!!! It just wouldn't get it and would surely have behavior problems.... like our dog now. I think our dog would like a companion, too! I've never had my own dog and it would probably be the only one i'll ever have. I'm usually more of a cat person except i hate litter boxes. |

It's a very pretty pattern! : ) I think that's the kind of dog my sister has. You certainly need more companionship in that big, empty house of yours |

Nooooo....!! Get a cat... The amount of cleaning you'll do after a dog is worst than a cat. (I'm a cat lover that has 2 inside dogs that I am so over. Every day I ask myself.. Why oh why did I ever get dogs?!?) |

I'm torn. I love both cats and dogs but i find it depends on the specific animal as to whether they are easy to clean up after. A chewy puppy - , a sick cat - , a dog that gets into the garbage - , a cat that gets on the counters (and into the food)! A cat that throws cat litter EVERYWHERE! |

I am down to my last pets. The tabby and chihuahua are about the same age, 10+. I am done. In the future I may get fish, as I still own a 55 gl tank. The question is what to do when you travel. I can get fish food tabs that last a week, but the cat and dog require sitters or kennel and they are both expensive now. I used to board our cat for $4 a day. That was a long, long time ago. |

When these go, I don't want any little surprises brought home to keep me company, lol. I want to be able to travel and not worry about any pets. |

Yeah. We JUST now got a fish. A Betta with a self-cleaning tank : ) It's all the work I'm up for - and even that is a stretch ; ) |
