New "K-word"

 Aquaman HATES his kennel, with a capital H.
He does really anything to avoid actually having to go in it. We've tried all sorts of training tactics... trust me.

Often when we tell him to "kennel" he looks up in the air in the opposite direction of where you're standing and pretends he didn't hear. 
Sometimes I swear he is actually a 3 year old kid.

We have to put him in the "K-word" (code so he doesn't know what us humans are talking about) because he would try to dig his way out of the house starting at the front door every time we leave. It's sad. He's such an anxious little guy.
So, now that he's chewed a hole through his plastic one he's gotten an upgrade.

Yay!
New K word for our friend! 

Enjoy little man - as much as you can.

I saw on one of those pet shows that if you give them a kong toy with penut butter way inside or one of those puzzle balls with snacks that it distracts them from caring that they are in the kennel and pretty soon they're cool with it because they know they'll have something to do while they're in there. It causes less anxiety.

The Wreath

It all started with Pinterest - yes, that rant about Pinterest still stands, but this was inspired from there. I wanted to recreate a wreath of bulbs, I hate buying wreaths since they expire year after year, this one will hang in my home for a LONG time, possibly till I die... that is how much I love how it turned out! So, being my crafty (and somewhat frugal) self, I set off to find the materials to make it. Finding that bulbs are not quite as cheap as you'd expect, I found them for 80% off.  This wreath, at cost would have run me about $125. ACK! I made it for under 35%! So pretty! So pleased! Many have asked me to make one for them - my answer - you buy the bulbs and materials and I'll glue it together!

My Happy Place

I have a lot of happy space in my world - but the happiest of all is Marvista Park in Normandy Park, just a few short miles from my house. It's the one place where I can go, be a kid, and then feel completely refreshed afterwards. Vacation is coming... T minus a few weeks now, and I feel like I've earned the crap out of it this year! But until then, a weekly trip to my happy place with the furry one should do it!  I love his little feet trying to take on the leaves! So cute.

Merry Craftmas!!

When I was little Mom had one of these to put out every Christmas. I remember her tossing it out having fixed its hot glue after every warm summer in the shed, she wasn't particularly attached to it but I was. Having collected enough baby food jars (finally) I put it together this weekend! Looks just like I remember it and now it is sitting in my closet awaiting its debut next weekend!
