So Lena made some new friends this week, they were the horses down the street from our cabin. I was a little leery about letting her get close to them thinking she may get a bit worked up and bark and maybe spook them, but I brought her right up to them and they just sniffed each other and both the horses and Lena remained very calm. Lena was actually nose to nose with the one horse and it looked like they were kissing while their nostrils were going crazy sniffing the heck out of each other.
I never realized how curious horses were until we passed them by and they kept coming up to the fence to check us out. Horses are such beautiful creatures and it was fun taking a walk every morning to say hello -- we both got to know some sweet gentle four legged neighbors down the road.
Lena's new friends
We are off to our cabin for another week so I thought I'd leave you with another funny e-mail that was sent to me. I thought it was adorable so here goes -- enjoy -- it's cute! Top 10 Dog Pet Peeves (there are a few of Lena's in here too as you can see from the photo :)
'1'
Blaming your farts on me.....
not funny... not funny at all !!!
----------------------------------------------
'2'
Yelling at me for barking.
I'M A FRIGGIN' DOG
--------------------------------------------------
'3'
Taking me for a walk, then
not letting me check stuff out.
Exactly whose walk is this anyway?
-------------------------------------------------
'4'
Any trick that involves balancing
food on my nose. Stop it!
--------------------------------------------------
'5'
Any haircut that involves bows or ribbons.
Now you know why we chew your stuff
up when you're not home.
--------------------------------------------------
'6'
The sleight of hand, fake fetch throw.
You fooled a dog! Whoooo Hoooooooo what
a proud moment for the top of the food chain.
--------------------------------------------------
'7'
Taking me to the vet for 'the big snip', then acting
surprised when I freak out every time we go back!
--------------------------------------------------
'8'
Getting upset when I sniff the crotches of your guests.
Sorry, but I haven't quite mastered that handshake thing yet.
--------------------------------------------------
'9'
Dog sweaters. Hello ???
Haven't you noticed the fur?
--------------------------------------------------
'10'
How you act disgusted when I lick myself.
Look, we both know the truth. You're just jealous.
--------------------------------------------------
Now lay off me on some of these things.
We both know who's boss here! You don't see me picking up your poop, do you?

So this is Spud, Spuddy, the Spudmeister, Spudders, he has many names. This is my sister's dog, the one my nephews are always saying is way cuter than my Lena. Okay, okay, so he's pretty darn cute and he can really work you for a piece of pizza -- but he lays down funny, look at his legs. In our family we call this the bear rug, but I've also heard it called frog legs, do you have a dog that lays like this and what do you call it?

This is my new bead, Three Peas In A Pod. It is a pea pod that has three happy little peas inside. There is one pink heart stamped on the outside of the pea.
Hand-sculpted from polymer clay.
The bead is approximately:
1-1/4" long x 4/8" wide and is pierced from top to bottom as shown in the photo.
