R.I.P My Boy

Chipper is gone. He passed on Saturday Morning. We buried him today at my mom's house. I don't know what to say. I am sooooooo going to miss him. He was my best friend for 11 years. My companion. My confidant. He always listened. He snuggled me when I was sad and he was happy when I was happy. He was the best dog a person could have ever asked for. I can't believe my time with him is over. It seemed like we were together for a short time but then again it felt like forever. I can't stand the empty feeling I am having. I feel like my right hand is missing. Like a piece of me has been ripped away. I hate it! I hate everything about it. I will miss him so so so very much!!
I Love You Chippy Boy!! Life is going to be rough without you here. Hugs and Smooches my boy!!

It's really it this time.......

My dog probably won't be with us for much more than a few more days. He has refused to eat anything in the past few days. The last thing he ate was a hamburger from Burger King on Wednesday Night. He will only drink a little bit. He throws up nasty old brown yuck a few times a day. I do believe it is blood that is sitting in his tummy :-( I am really sad but I also don't really want to watch him be sick for much longer. He has been ill for quite some time and it is time for it to end. We are not putting him to sleep.... we are just going to let nature take its course. He is comfortable and is sleeping in my bed 99% of the time. We have him covered with baby blankets. Jadyn and I are at my mom's house for the weekend. He should have a pretty peaceful weekend at home with his other mommy.
I sure will miss him!!!

Happy Thanksgiving from My family to all of yours! I hope you have a spledid day. We are off to Aunt Lisa's later today to fill our bellies so high we may not be able to move for a day or two!!!
Tomorrow Jadyn and I are off to Grandma's (my mom's) house for the weekend. My mom and I might brave taking Jadyn to see Madagascar 2. The first Madagascar is her absolute most favorite movie in the world. On Saturday Jadyn and I are going to venture over to my Dad's house to visit and then on Sunday Sue will join us at my mom's house and we will celebrate Turkey Day at her house.

My first TWO finished quilt Tops.....

This is the first one I attempted. These are just the Quilt tops. I haven't actually "Quilted" them yet! That is the scarey part........ This one has some screw ups in it but it turned out kinda cute.
This Quilt is going to be for the Sister (Jadyn). I used all 1930's Reproduction fabrics. It actually turned out better then I thought it would. I need to border it with something. ( Any suggestions on color? Would white make it to blah?) Decisions Decisions.........

Achoo

Jadyn's illness has turned in to a cold. I, of course, will take that over the puking any day. She does get the post nasal drip when she is trying to sleep which wakes her up and she wakes everybody else up. If any body has a post nasal drip stopper upper tip please share with us!! I LIKE sleeping at night and do not want to be woke up every hour for the next 5 days.
I have finished piecing my first quilt top. There are a few screw ups but it didn't turn out half bad really. I am now working on Jadyn's. I am making Jadyn a lap size quilt which measures 57"x75". Who the hell has a lap that big????...... I got some 1930's reproduction fabric for her quilt. I hope it turns out as cute as I want it to.
