Doggie Update

Nix is a lot better, that's for all your messages. When she escaped they think she has twisted her knee it was quite swollen, sadly together with arthritis she's suffering a little but a few meds then think she will be fine xx

The most amazing rescue dog....

This is Nix she is our amazing rescue dog, when I accidently brought her home without my husband knowing....as you do....he didn't expect to find a 'fitting' and shaking dog in the kitchen, she fitted every day 4am for weeks and weeks, we decided to try to not medicate and eventually the fits became less and less...,
I forgot to mention they wouldn't let me pay any money for her at the dogs home because they said they may have to put her to sleep......they didn't need to say anything else, she was then ours!

When I bathed the dark brown flea ridden fur the most beautiful dog appeared and although as she had been so badly treated she couldn't look us in the eye as she was full of fear , you can help but love this little girl......

she was around 18 months when we brought her home, she hasn't had a fit for years and is very very special and is now 14.
Nix loves to run around and her big non malignant tumours don't stop hear leaping around and bolting out of the door at any opportunity, today was that day....the day when a disapproving neighbour knocks on the door to say she needs a tag you know!!!! red faced I took the very muddy girl back into the house and after a treat she was fine but suddenly, hours later she had begun to limp, very badly, she cant get on the sofa without help and seems very in the 'wars'....I hate going to the vet, after my other dog Harvey's problems I just don't want to know....(will save that for another post..
 
I hope you will wish me luck I think a visit is in order...LOVE THIS DOG!

Fabric Organising

Tues Wednesday OK Thursday, I got there in the end, if you know what I've been doing I hope you would sympathise......
 Many years ago I had a bad car accident, we were hit at 60 miles per hour from behind and we were stationary. At the time the £3,000 felt like a lottery win but I still have terrible problems with my back, the pain I can't explain and the spasms...WOW, I was stretchered and confined to my room for a week on honeymoon, I've had spells in hospital but after a bad episode I recover really quickly so they won't operate....this time Its gone on for weeks...on and off on and off....which is why I am more and more certain that my home studio us a good idea. I have started getting things organised, it's not been as quick as I would have liked but I need to know my limitations and not overdo it Here is a sneak peak of my new fabric stash boards. I had theses made in clear plastic to tidy by fabric mountain, I hope you like my late but perfectly formed tip...
