What a week it has been.......my 16 muddy feet all lived up to their name this week. Everyday they kept getting out of the yard, and headed straight for the lake while we were at work. They ran around the neighborhood like a pack of lunatics!! That is what they are when they think we aren't looking. Well the first day they dug a hole. The next day they knocked off more fence boards. Then they somehow got out a gate that was locked. Then they got out same gate that was DOUBLE locked. What the heck!!!
Then the next day out same gate double locked, but this time I see they ripped out the screws, so we bought much longer screws...see the pretty black ones?? Then they got out next day, by breaking old hinge in half!! So that pick shows pretty new hinge too! By now we are tired of fixing this problem so dear hubbie also puts in a second bar into concrete to help keep this lunatics in the yard......see dark new rod?
And then he buys a new huge barrel bolt too.
Well you are not going to believe what they did today?
They got out again!!!!!!!!!!
By CHEWING THROUGH the gate!!!!! OH MY!!!! So we bought hardware cloth today, metal mesh with 1/4 inch holes in it. That is tomorrows project....
All this while dealing with dear hubbie and many different doctors and specialists. Bottom line to make a long story short. He is 43 and we just found out he has a huge tumor in his colon and he will need surgery probably week after next. So I haven't done too much sewing this week at all. But this is what I am working on today.
This is the fabric selection I have picked to work on the Dorinda Mystery Quilt. I am going to try and finish the first block tonight, so watch for it.
