My little escape artist...

Well, Lucy managed to slip her harness again this weekend.  I keep getting different harnesses that fasten in different places, and tightening them more, but nothing seems to matter.  I swear she has no bones or something...she just slips right out.  She didn't even tug this last time...I just looked down and she was gone.  *sigh*  The last time, she came right back when I called, but this time, I guess she smelled something exciting, cuz off she went like a little bolt of lightning running for the end of the block.  Now, mind you, this is in the pitch black in a neighborhood I'm not particularly familiar with, outside my friend's house in DeKalb.  So I'm running through yards after her, probably screeching her name (at the time, it seemed like I was speaking at a normal volume, but now that I think back on people stepping out on their porches to see what the commotion was, I'm guessing maybe I wasn't).  So, she finally got spooked when a car came by and came back to me, but not before I managed to pull my calf muscle pretty bad.  It was wonderful.  lol.  Sooooo...back to PetSmart yesterday, and Lucy got some little t-shirts to wear under her harness so I could tighten it some more without it rubbing.  What a spoiled little brat, eh?  :)  But really...who could stay mad at this face?

So she got her new t-shirts...I think they're pretty appropriate:

And last but not least, gotta share a pic of Lucy and Millie...new best friends :)

Aren't they cute when they aren't running away and causing injuries?  :)  I think so too!  And that's all for tonight :)  More crafting soon...it's been a little nuts lately!

A home for Millie Sofia...

Well, it's official!  I have a new addition to my little canine family.  We drove all the way to St. Louis this morning to meet Millie Sofia, a sweet little black/gray Pomeranian (the rescue group says full blood Pomeranian, but I've never seen a 15 lb. Pomeranian, and neither has my veterinarian.  But that's neither here nor there.  We brought Lucy along (much to her dismay, since she had to ride in the back seat all the way there, which she certainly did NOT appreciate), to make sure we could all get along so we wouldn't have a dogfight five minutes in.  So the place was a madhouse, and amid a dozen or so dogs loitering in an area the size of my bathroom, and what seemed like another dozen phonecalls at once, we managed to get paperwork signed, and Millie became mine!  She's from a puppy mill and has had a rough life, so she's understandably shy, but VERY sweet, and soooooo cute!  Stopped at the vet's office on the way home, where she got the a-okay to come home without concern, and her and Lucy are already snuggling on the couch next to me.  What a great day :)  No crafting today, but puppy pics below!

And that's all for now :)  More another day!
