She's at it AGAIN!



You might remember a post I did a while ago about my daughter who likes to tattoo.

Well she's at it again! This time she's only tattooing herself and has left her brother alone.

She offered to give me one but I declined. Too much to do to keep my arm, hand, leg, ankle or foot still long enough for her to ink me!

It's not a real tattoo only FAKE and totally washable. She uses a combination of sharpies, white gel pens, coloured gel pens, coloured markers and EYELINER! Yes that's eyeliner like the kind you put on your eyes! Anything she can get her hands on and will work she'll use it.
ETA: I talked to my daughter about not using markers and she tells me
that she is using only liquid eyeliner and eye pencils now for her
designs. Thanks for the safety advice and suggestions!

God help me! I think I've got a Kat Von D (from Miami Ink) wannabe on my hands!


SAM-I-AM Better!



My dog Sam (his real name is Sam-I-Am) has finished his course of antibiotics and is feeling much better!

Thanks to everyone for their thoughtful comments and suggestions!

{Giving Doggie Pills Suggestions}

Thanks for the comments & suggestions for giving my dog his meds.

I tried the peanut butter (he threw it ALL up), I tried crushing it in with his food (he wouldn't eat) and I tried using the cheese (finally success!!!).

I just wanted to post and let you know that what worked for us was wrapping the pill in a strip of process cheese - pinching the sides closed - and then giving the little "package" to him.

He ate it up and was even beggin' for more! Hopefully he'll start to feel better soon...

Self-Discovery Exercise

I found this journal exercise on Amy's blog (Heartfeltgreetings). It's meant to be a "self-discovery" exercise I guess.

I thought it might make for some fun scrap titles and pages? If you feel like joining in add a comment with a link to your blog so we can check it out and get to know each other better.
