Flowers

I just wanted to show off my gardening skills...aren't these pretty???

I have one pot that isn't doing too well in the heat..but I think I might re-pot it with somemore of these..they are doing so well...they must love me!



Also..my tomatoes are showing signs of life. Can you see the little flowers...I am assuming that is where the tomatoes will be.

Just a note..there will be no dog pictures in this post. Also, the wedding plans are coming along as well as they can at this point...the Save the Date's have gone out...and well...thats about it!

Bored

I am bored this morning, though it is very possible I am confusing extreme fatigue with boredom... I have been working nights (and days!) for the last week and a half.

Ok..I don't want this to become all pictures of Izzie..so before I do that...I'd like to say I am getting close to finishing my sweater. Finally!
I know the body looks short..but it isn't..its hanging off the side of my bed.

Ok...now onto the dog. Izzie had taken to sleeping on my comfy down blanket...


It got dirty and so I had to wash it..lets just say...it didn't wash very well.






I felt bad and so I bought her a doggie bed yesterday.



I think it might take her some time to get used to sleeping in it though...




I told you I was bored!



Maybe she doesn't like her bed? maybe its to confining? or maybe its too soft? I don't really know. Maybe I need to consult a pet psychic???

Has my thumb turned green??

I decided last weekend that I needed some plants...I also have wanted, for the last few years, to grow tomatoes. The tomatoes bit is quite ironic actually, as I don't even really like tomatoes. Also in the mix is a jalapeno plant...don't ask.

Here are my window boxes...




....they are placed left and right as appropriate.



We'll see how it goes. I am making sure to water them daily....
So..dog..plants..what the heck is next????

Doggie Bag?

I said I would not dress Izzie up in clothes. Several people have asked..but I honestly don't think I can...that is, unless she gets a lovely hoody like Morse has...and then I'll have to put it on her when she's in Chicago in the winter...but only then would I consider it....

Anyway, I also have thought I wouldn't ever have one of those handbag dogs either...you know, the toy size ones that are really an accessory..and not a pet. I think Izzie may have other plans though... Izzie has decided that she likes to sleep in my Vera Bradley bag! Now..I have seen that Vera makes a dog carrier...maybe I should get one???
