The New Man In My Life!

Here he is...little Gunther! That's his sister beside him...my friend, Heidi, asked me about the Dachshund Rescue organization that my daughter got Rufus from. He belonged to her daughter who was seven months pregnant with her first baby. She worked long hours, and to top it off, her husband was overseas for a year! Both doxies were too much for her, even though she was terribly torn about giving the little rambunctious boy up...

When my husband saw this picture, he said, "I want him!" So we gave it a trial...he was a trial at first, heehee! He bit Maggie, our other sweet furbaby...piddled everywhere and was obsessed with his toy and wanted to chase and chase and chase...well, you get the picture. Thankfully, he was trained to the crate, so he had periods of play with me, time out in the crate, and otherwise, he was with me constantly with his leash tied around my waist. He learned "NO" meant "NO". He calmed down and has been doing much better...Now, if I could train my husband to keep that structure with him...but, oh well. He (both) is a keeper! More later...

Country Living Fair 2011 in Atlanta, Georgia

This is a picture from last year of me and Amy Barickman, fabric designer and owner of The Vintage Workshop and Indygo Junction. She had a workshop at the Country Living Fair (the first one in Atlanta)in 2010...I had shown her what I did with some of her designs on my vintage denim vest...

This year at CLF, I was sick and didn't get to go....I hate that!!! The following are pictures of the two Sisters on the fly campers that were featured this time...here's Dealia Jo, the little fishing cottage camper of Debbie Facer...isn't it just the best? It is hand painted by an artist here in Atlanta...
and, here is the Bookmobile camper belonging to Rebecca Amerson...she is a retired Media Specialist (we used to say Librarian) with a school system...her first job was on a bookmobile! Hers is also hand painted by a local artist...gorgeous!

You go, girl!!!
