Bandit At Rest

Well, poor little Freckles (AKA Dawson) wasn’t a good match so we carry on our search for the perfect pet for our neighbor friend.  It was a hectic and busy weekend so nothing got accomplished on that quest.  Got other things done though and spent some time with Ronnie’s family so it wasn’t a complete loss, just in the dog-finding effort.  I haven’t taken any new pictures recently so here’s one of our Bandit laying on the back of the loveseat perfectly relaxed.  Such a sweet, happy and intelligent animal. I’m so glad we kept him; he’s been a great addition to our pack.  He’s every other dog’s big brother, protector, nursemaid, toy and friend.

I have undertaken learning to applique on my big machine this week and I have a couple of computers to fix (possibly 3).  One is at the laptop shop having its motherboard replaced that I will have to reload when it will work again.  I also have cooking to do and treats to make to send to work with Ronnie.  I have a carrot cake and a red velvet cake, both with cream cheese frosting, some cookies and some candy treats with cranberries, nuts and coconut.  Just need the time to put them together.  I actually had a sewing group to go to today but needed the sleep worse than the camaraderie.  I delivered one of the baby gift collections I finished and I have another baby multi-pack to get done by the January due date.  One was in blue; this one will be in pink.  I also have some blankets to applique for people and dogs (to sell) and a quilt to quilt together and hem for the January due date.  There’s no way I’ll get all of this done this week but I’m sure to get some of it accomplished and that’s what I’m shooting for.
