Time out...

4


Someone is on her way to the vet today...
nothing too serious

and she's always up for a car ride...
Her favorite vet, Dr. Emily, is on duty this afternoon.
Lucky dawg...Dr. Emily always sits on the floor with her, talks real sweet,
moves gently and keeps everyone calm...


She'll tease dawg, chide her for chasing things at breakneck speed...
that IS how you rip out a paw-nail after all


Funny, the ways they have to let us know something is not quite right...


...this one will start to lick you if you happen to miss her meaning the first time.


Here's something a bit odd... I too, went on a 'time out.'  Yesterday.
Laid up with a little annoyance from one of my own digits...
a wonky finger actually... back paws feet are ok.
No stitching, no beading, no work...all projects at a complete standstill.
Nothing but r&r now for my entire right hand 
along with too much time to think about setting the world to rights...



Do our animals suffer sympathy injuries?  of course not.
When dawg gets back, we can have a little chat about it...
while we nurse our right, front paws together  ;>}

  4. Penny ~ TOO RIGHT. Here I am, thick in the midst of Jude's class & I can't sew....waaaannnnh. ok. that's my little snivel for the day.

    Hi K ~ well I am enjoying the rest actually, luv a legitimate excuse for sleeping in. HAve tried sewing as a leftie...s.l.o.w.s.l.o.g. Not sure the frustration is worth it. Been doing a bit of "mind sketching" with all the fabric piles laying around...

    Kaite ~ greetings Quilter Extraordinaire! Have been following all your efforts with blankets for Q'land....BRAVO. Thanx for the kind words :>}
