Fun Weekend

Dogs are departing, some remaining and some coming. What a great weekend it has been. Tomorrow Leti, Jersey, Chloe and Rocky and Lucy depart. Wednesday is my day off and I need it. I also need to get my 2 planters left transplanted as the pots are broken and some of the plants are damaged but should come back. Here is hoping. My trug I hardly planted and I have lettuce coming up everywhere. Many other things survived from last year. Surely saves money when that happens. 

Here is the gallery.

Dogs have been having fun nonstop. Patches has taken over where Jake was at tv time right on my lap snuggled in. Jeannie is sometimes up on the recliner right next to her. Sadie eats as if she is starving - yum it's dinner don't you know?

Pool is still not fixed but hopeful this week - please!!

I need to sand a table and spray paint it. Why spray paint? I am being lazy. 

Someone said I need to build a website for my sideline. I have no time but they are selling by word of mouth and I surely need to with all our repairs. 

Here are a few things I have done.

Doormat high quality. Can put anything on it including this design with your dog and/or family name.

This is a pillow cover linen.

I am using this as a trivet for outside. It's slate. You can put family photos on it (have stands) or dog photos or anything you like. 

This is a garden flag. You can put anything on it and it hangs on a pole. It is double sided.

I do pens, t-shirts, tumblers, pens, keychains, luggage tags, mugs what have you. I am attempting to do tea lights and did those with flowers on it. Next I will try them with one of my dogs or someone else's. Next I will be doing leather designed patches for hats or whatever you want it on. I am also going to put my dogs on pens. :-)

No obligation to want or desire. Simply enjoy creating.  Posting as I was asked.

I am not at all surprised by Patches claiming pride of place 😀. Darlah, you are so talented. ❤️

Angela: She is so much like Jeannie. I have to laugh. Hope you are healing well. They are having much fun!

Is that Leti, Benny’s mom? Did they interact at all?

WOW!!! Darlah, you are so talented!

Sadie looks very content lying on the lounger, watching all the action. Your sideline creations look terrific, Darlah.

Yes, Leti interacted with her kids and tried to tell them what to do. It was so funny!

May 24, 2022 | Registered CommenterDarlah

Good to distract vs allowing them to feed into the noise. Had fireworks last night and did the same and no reaction.

May 24, 2022 | Registered CommenterDarlah

Sorry to keep asking questions but I am so curious - do you think Leti recognized Benny in any way? Did he show any sign he recognized her?
