I'm Enjoying A Burst Of Energy

November 26, 2017

Good morning.  The sun is shining and the temperature is 48F degrees.  Just a tad bit too cold for me, but it's a gorgeous day outside so I'm happy.  Well, my porch screen covers are up.  Joe put them up this morning with some help from one of the other dwarfs.  This week, we'll see about getting the heavy duty plastic up on the front portion of the porch. 

Even though I got up rather early this morning, I'm getting a late start on my post.  I got a burst of energy and used it to wrap and package a couple of gift boxes.  One for a birthday, and one for Christmas.  It's a beginning.  Now I just have to tackle the rest of the gifts and boxes. 

I've also spent some time working on the green afghan.  There are eighteen more rows to go to finish it.  Some time this week, I have to sew the buttons on the nappy covers.  Then I can wrap them.  I still have to give some thought on how to attach the dresses and under-slips on the bed dolls.  I tried sewing the slip to the underside of the dress, but then it made the dress too heavy for the doll.  Hmmm, I need to give this some more thought. 

I did not have any luck gluing embellishments on to the air freshener doll dresses, so they'll just have to settle for having ribbons.  I tried!  It would be nice to have all of these dollies wrapped and packaged before the end of the week.  At some point, I need to put all my yarn bags and project bags away in the other room.  They are beginning to take up too much of my space.  hahaha.

Today I have some adorable photos that I took with my phone.  Every now and then I get lucky and am able to get some cute photos of Pogo before he turns his face away.  The poor guy is in need of a trip to the beauty salon.  He's looking like the Lion King again.

Isn't he just the cutest little fellow in his jammies?   He seems quite pleased with himself in these photos.  In the last photo, he was trying to get my attention to let me know that he wants more hamburger on his plate. 

He has this little quirk.  He asks for more food, then when I get it for him, he just checks to make sure it's all there and then he walks away.  This is his way of making sure that he has food for when he gets hungry later.  He hasn't figured out yet that there will always be food for him whenever he wants it.  I guess this is a hold-over habit from his days of living in a cage. 

Well, now I'm going to make a fresh cup of coffee and catch up on some blog reading.  After that, I'll wrap a few more things.  At least while this little burst of energy hangs on.  So, till tomorrow, Y'all have a fantabulous day.

Hugs, Edna B.
