It's a doll's world

At least my world is a doll's world. I know you probably are thinking "does this woman have anything else in her life besides dolls?" The answer is umm, well, yes and no. My life is consumed with dolls and since my girls have their own blogs (OK, Kim is a flake on hers) and Jeff lives in AZ and the only pics I get of Rylie are on my phone, dolls are all I have left to talk about. So here it is, the big project I've been working on for many months. I forget when Brent built the cubes for me. All four cubes are finally done. Now I have to have him help me make the pergola for the roof top deck.







And you're probably wondering who gets to play with my doll house? I do and my grandkids do if they want and any other little girlies that like dollies and want to come play are invited!

On a sad note, We had to put Luke down last week. It was so hard but it was just as hard to see him start to slow down and suffer. I noticed that he was panting a lot the last few days and I'm sure that was his way of trying to deal with the pain. We'll miss him terribly.

On another sad note, I went back to work part time. The owner of the company I quit last year, called and offered me a deal. I get to work from home and I get paid what I was making when I left, before they cut it in half (the reason for me quitting). I'm not sure I made the right decision yet but at least there will be a little money coming in to help with day to day living.

Mollie turns 3 and other stuff

Since Kim has flaked out on her blog, I guess I will post about her kids' birthdays.

Yesterday, Mollie turned the big 3! Yay for 3! She got an awesome playhouse:
That's baby Jacob, Jase and Mollie in the picture.

I made her this chair: The cover comes off and the arms and back come apart so you can throw it in the washing machine.
I also made her this: because Kim told me that's what Mollie wanted.

This is my old dog Luke: Luke has cancer. He has a tumor on his leg and he's been licking it and it's been swelling up to about the size between a golf ball and tennis ball. We've not been able to stop the bleeding. Brent took him to the vet on Saturday and they wanted to put him down. Brent came home to get me and while he was home, he decided that he wanted Luke to die at home. We went back to get him and the vet was not too happy. Brent was so insistent and asked the vet for pain meds. The doc told us that he may live for another 3 months but he will be in a lot of pain, pain that the meds cannot help. We got the pain meds as well as an anti inflammatory and antibiotics. We agreed that we would call the vet by the end of the week and he can come to our house to do a home euthanasia. The thing is, Luke doesn't act like he's in any pain. He still runs around and plays with the other dogs. He's eating like normal too. I have a strong feeling that Brent will decide that this week will not be the week to say goodbye to our Lukie boy.
