SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

So I have tried to catch up but I just realized I follow ALOT of blogs. I still have comments to make and an award to celebrate, there are so many lambs being born on some of my farm blogs and so many cute pics, I think I am on blog overload! . Work has become very busy so I can't sit around and play on the computer anymore...like I use to..probably why I was able to follow so many blogs...sigh...


I still can't talk about Terrible Timmy at Easter..but I will..eventually..I am off to a HUGE animal sale this weekend, the one where I bought Buster Peebody actually. I am allowed to buy a pigeon..1 pigeon..pretty pathetic...

Sooooooooooooo I was playing ball with Pip and the goats were feeling frisky. Jacob the big guy jumped in the air, spun towards me and butted me in the gut..very gently. When he was wee this behaviour was not acceptable now he is so big some serious damage could be done!..so he got a cuff upside the head and was quite meek after that. It got me to thinking..I like goats, they are one of my Fave things..

Since Easter Picks are gone and quite a few of you seemed sad... I am inventing Fave Things Thursday!!!! I am also trying to find more of the "unknown talent" on Etsy.. So here we go with my Fave Things Thursday..and today is GOATS!!!!!



Of course you have to have goat milk soap..and check out her name...Annie Goatley!!

I'm back!

Hi ..sorry I disappeared for a while but I have had non stop cluster migraines and headaches. I'm still hurting but alot less than before. So I am going to slowly catch up on all your news in your blogs and try to get some new pics to post. Things are finally warming up here so I might be able to get some nice pics of the farm animals!

My easter was spent with a bad headache and a horrible little Timmy..but thats for another post...

Here is my latest feltie. I've been using Ebay lately and have been very lucky. So I thought a Mare and Foal just in time for mother's day might go over well!

Busy Weekend

What a busy weekend. One day of totally crap weather and one day of pure sunshine..I got alot done on both days.
I spent alot of time needlefelting this weekend, the dogs just laid about and behaved themselves.

Timmy was enjoying the sunshine. Boy does he need a shave!

I don't know if I have mentioned it or not but I am learning to groom dogs. I actually know how already but am learning the breed styles and different methods and equipment. You would think then that my dogs would be just groomed perfectly. Think again :)

Look at Buster Peebody.

If I saw this dog as a finished product at a grooming shop I would run the other way. Poor Buster Peebody gets a bad rap though. I bought 7 new blades and they are all different lengths so I decided to test them out...on Buster Peebody..all of them..his legs look hilarious..each one is done differently.. Poor Buster Peebody..

Oh..and by the way..I felted a pug. He took me 3 trys to get right..yes 3!! I think he looks pretty cute though. If you want to see more of him he is listed in my etsy store.

The Dentist and of course Timmy.

My fiance is a big dog lover so he is trying to bond with my little guys. Buster Peebody thinks he is great, FiFi is beginning to really like him..Pippin LOVES him but then there is Timmy. Timmy has played with him, something he never does and allows him to scratch his butt but his attitude towards my fiance(MrB) is changing. Supposedly he gives MrB the stink eye. I didn't believe it until he took some pics of Timmy sitting on my lap looking at him. He WAS giving him the stink eye!!!. Now whenever MrB comes in Timmy starts shaking and stares at me with those big "oh help me" eyes. Mr B says he just does it to get me to come over and cuddle him, which I do..Mr B says he is a smug, little bas***d!!It also does not help when we walked into the kitchen and there was Timmy standing in the middle of the table. Mr B gave me the stink eye then.
I think the bonding still needs a little work...
So Timmy was helping me heal after my dentist appointment and we were discussing what we would look like if we were rabbits..so I went to one of my fav. web sites..Disapproving Rabbits..to find pics of what we were talking about.
Timmy and I decided that if he was a rabbit he would look like this
Timmy thinks he has more hair than he actually does.
This was me at the dentist yesterday
2 1/2 hours in the chair..they finally put a wedge in my jaw to help keep my mouth open...They put enough cotton in there to stuff a bear..5 freezing needles and the one tooth would still not freeze all the way so the dentist says "hang on..I only need to drill for 2 more seconds" Longest 2 secs. of my life! I came out with a fat lip, a frozen eye and nose and and the inability to eat applesauce without it dripping out of my mouth..and I paid for this...here's $100 bucks..please punch me in the face...
This is me now..
if I were a rabbit.

Felties and Ferrets!!

I am most excited. I received some paperclay in the mail yesterday and can't wait to try to make something. May be a disaster but I'm willing to take the chance. Hopefully Timmy won't eat it! I also have tea stained some faux fur and am going to try to make one of those old antique critters I like so much and of course I am still needlefelting. I can't just sit and watch TV...have to be doing something.
So here are my latest creations.
Wool ball fat cats..all covered with soft alpaca...
After taking pics of these I went to bed and what did I find??
A little scrawny ferret..
..
Not my big boy Hansel but a little wee girl.
I have actually had her since the fall but I didn't know if she was going to make it or not. It was touch and go for a while, but she seems to have fought back and is actually gaining weight. My fiance"s friend is getting a divorce and the ferret had to go. Yet he was able to keep 2 dogs and get a kitten...hmmmm
My friend wanted a ferret for her 5 years old daughter so we were going to give her to them..until we saw her..so tiny, so fragile and wobbly on her legs. She is deaf as most albinos are but has pretty good eyesight. Better than my Hansel.
Here's the kicker. Ferret average life span is 6-7yrs old. It's a big deal if you can get to 7. My Hansel will be 7 this year..well this grand lady is going on 10!!!
Imagine dumping a pet of that age. That is like dumping a 20yr old dog..
They also named her Ferret Face..what a cruddy name for this little lady.
She has become quite frisky and very steady on her legs. She is so sweet and cuddly. I just love her. She really doesn't like Hansel but he is rather stinky. She was spayed and descented so she doesn't smell....too bad..LOL
Hansel is the big guy on the right. I think she is trying to be a shark..Run Hansel!!!
Ewwww..you have a stinky butt!!!
Go away before I bite your legs off. Poor Hansel I kept tossing him up on the bed to take pics but there was no way he was hanging around!!!
PS--for all you pug lovers check out these little guys!!
