Mine will go out by Tuesday... just got a few finishing touches.
Broke a tooth that had had a root canal and it’s dentist time Monday. Soo fun..Not! Broke at the gum line, so it’s dig it out time. Ouch !!
Can’t wait..at least there’s no pain...yet. The upside is I’ll lose some weight on a soup diet for a couple of days..
And have an excuse to put off a little house work. Win Win here..Ha Ha!
Oh , okay..maybe start work on Feb cards too... mary.

Mine went out today.
Mary, so sorry to hear about your tooth breaking off. Hope your dentist gets it fixed with
as little discomfort as possible.

Thanks Linda. Extraction was interesting.little guy did not want to come out. Then blood clotting too slow and had to go back for stitches. I imagine by tomorrow everything will have settled down. Enjoying the evening petting my kitty.
Looking forward to your cards.they're always sweet.

Mary, sorry to hear you had to go back for stitches. I've had extensive dental work done over
the years and I can sure empathize. Your lucky kitty gets extra attention while you're on the
mend. We have a greyhuahua we adopted about a year ago from a no kill shelter. He is so
sweet but sometimes we think he is a cat as he loves to sit and be petted. He is greyhound/
Chihuahua mix and people ask what that looks like...I just tell them a Chihuahua on stilts!
He has such long legs and the whippet in him makes him race like the wind around the house
inside or outside. Anyways, hope you're on the mend and feeling lots better soon.

Mary, I feel for you. Having all of my top teeth extracted this summer...now that was an ordeal. Lots of stitches, lots of pain meds four dental visits and the oral surgeon. I know how you feel. But I also know that you will be better soon. Love your kitty! Meow!!!

I had a Rescue Greythougd-Saluki....Beautiful fawn Dog, But the Saluki is an aloof breed and just “ Wants to be left alone”. Scared of his own shadow. He was out in the yard “ frozen in time”and I though maybe he found a little rattle snake. I circled behind him and found that this big, brave dog was terrorized by a Snail crawling on a blade of grass.
He’s now back living with his foster mom aka new adoptive mom. He was so neurotic and could not adjust to our 1/2 time camping life style. Poor puppy. It was such a very hard decision to let him go back, But he is happier with the more predictable, home bound lifestyle. Plus she has two more adoptee Greyts for company.
I still get to visit with him when his “mom”and I get together for a 3 Days of quilting.

Ah...sweet pic of your rescue greyhound Mary and sorry he didn't work out. I've heard the
greyhounds are very timid. Don't know who the mama was for ours but he is "Italian Greyhound (smaller breed) and Chihuahua. He's so cute and kids and adults want to come up and
pet him all the time and he has a curly tail. They all think he is a "puppy" but he is actually
4 yrs old. He is a great guard dog as he will bark if anything is amiss but most of the time
very quiet. Gets along well with other dogs and we have a friend who also has a greyhuahua
and they get along great.
Marilyn, I remember when you had mentioned going through all you did with your dental
work as well and glad that is all over with for you. Dental work is a must at times but we
sure don't enjoy it when it happens.

Thanks for posting those pics, Connie. I've only received Marlene's so far but I'm sure there
will be more soon. I debated on a snowman or other theme and I see the snowman is popular
and love the different ideas everyone is coming up with. Marilyn's was super cute with the
puffy snow at bottom and darling snowman with ribbon scarf and Deb's, well, I think her
snowman had to know about your snow and ice Connie by the looks of your mailbox and all
that snow. Sure hope it melts soon and you get mail delivery again before too long.

Marlene, love your card! A New Year Is Beginning! I had a pretty rough 2017. Your card reminded me that there is always hope, to take things one day at a time, and live to love others. Thank You
Marilyn, Your snowman is so adorable! I love all of the mix media that you used to create such a sweet sweet card. Now why did I not think to use cotton on the bottom of my card. You gals are super creative for sure. Also loved the snow flake envelope. Thank you
Nora, Wow! What a cute idea to use bottle caps to fashion your snowman. My granddaughter has bottle caps someone gave her. She is now sitting next to me creating snow people. Love it!!! Thank You
Linda, Linda, Linda, Your card is just to stinkin cute. The snowman picture is so sweet, I just want to put it in my purse with grandkids pictures and claim him as one of my own. LOL! Absolutely ADORABLE!!!
Like I have said many times before, if you farmsisters could bottle some of that creativity it would be a money maker for sure. Thank You
I love all of my cards, and I love all of you!
Hugs and Giggles
