These guys are the reason I have no new photos edited to show you. Please excuse the camera phone shot. I don't know what I'd do if Aunt Sandy wasn't helping with them.
Its been slightly crazy around here lately, between having grands over, middle of the night puppy feedings, giant wild cats stealing chickens (I ran out into the woods trying to hunt it down, then stopped and wondered what I'd do if I did actually catch it!), constantly cleaning up after Twinkle and her brood, piles of packages coming in for the Faery Book Swap, trying to finish up my covers, throwing a hero dinner for Sandy for saving the pups, and mailing out boxes full of millinery flowers sold in the Boutique, I'm wrecked.
Plus, while it seems like weeks ago, it was really only a few days past that I was co-hostessing a family reunion in another state.
So, of course, today after a midnight and 4 am puppy feeding, I left the morning meal to Sandy and hit the road to go to a flea market today. It was good to play hooky.
Whew, what a week! Actually not even a full week yet.
No wonder I'm tired! And haven't announced the giveaway winner. Which by the way is:
Tish Porter
No wonder you are exhausted! Glad you got away for a bit today. I've raised many a litter of toy pups, so I know how exhausting that can be. When do you have to dock their little tails? Isn't that within the first few days? Poor babies and poor Gramma! LOL The pups are so sweet and Twinkle looks grateful for all your help.

We decided against tail docking this time. The vet says that its becoming more common to leave the tails.

I'm glad you got to play hooky yesterday, Karla! Sure sounds like you needed it. Hope to hear that you found treasures galore at the flea market. Oh, and hoping to SEE a few of those aforementioned treasures as well. : )
Looking forward to hearing more about the faery pages and maybe getting a few peeks of your faery workshop wonderland in progress!
Congrats to Tish Porter for winning the giveaway!

Karla,
I had to laugh at your wildcat chase, I did that once with a bear and I wondered the very same thing.
I hope you have happy hunting and find good junk!
Enjoy your hooky day.

It sounds as if you really need some down time and a day away should help. I hope it was fun.
And I agree - they are really cute with tails.

I am glad you are leaving the tails. They are just too cute when their tails wag.
I think I better buy some "get well" cards. You are about to crash!!
hugs...

Do you have homes for all of them or by chance it there one available? If so how much and what does one do if they are interested in one?
