We had our annual jewelry making party last weekend - I spent more time chatting with Leona, Meredith and Kirby and helping out than I did creating, which is even better (like I need more earrings.....)  Here are two that I made.  It was such a nice time - it felt like we were almost back to normal....

 

Alex took the dogs for  walk in the field yesterday, and played with the camera on the new phones.  It's amazing how good our phones are as a camera!  The new iphone 13 pro has a telephoto lens - not as good as my real camera, but pretty darn good for a phone!  He got a picture of a hawk in the tree.

 

We lost Indy yesterday - he spent the weekend in ICU at Asher's with a bladder infection, pancreatitis, and abnormal blood sugar levels (he's been diabetic for years) and seemed to be getting better - enough to come home at least, but he died during the night.  What a sweet, odd-ball kitten he was.

 

I give up on the dog beds....they sleep where they want!  I piled up all the dog beds from the sewing/computer room so I could vacuum in there, and Luna decided to nap in all of them at once.  Talk about a bed-hog!

 

I took the dogs out for a walk, and Ripley is doing much better off-leash - she listens as well as Luna does (which really isn't saying much, but...better that she was!)

  

        

 

New hair cut!

 

AJ took time off from enjoying his birthday yesterday and helped me trim back the crepe myrtle trees.  (I think he actually likes cutting these down to nothing....though he will never admit that he likes anything about yardwork.)

 

I buy extra dog beds, scatter them all over the house, and where does Luna sleep???
