The Foils, Foibles, and Follies of MaraBella and Me

It is still a bit of a struggle to get MaraBella across the River Road, but I don't have to drag her anymore.  It is soooooooo much better when Furman is with me or a few more people.  She wants to be with the crowd.  She is also getting much better at walking on the dock with the water all around her.  Once on the pontoon, her little nose twitches almost non stop at all the scents available to sniff.  She wants to see and smell everything; the water, the birds, the tubers, and other boaters, so she rarely sits still.  Up to the front, back to see me, up on the platform, looking off to the east, west, north and south.  I look forward to the time when she can just relax and enjoy the ride.

The Foils, Foibles and Follies of MaraBella and Me.

I did not have the heart to show you all the shoes MaraBella chewed up the other day.  But one sock isn't so bad.  MaraBella will not go into a bathroom.  I don't  know why and I don't have much of a reason to force her, other then at some point it is likely she will need a bath.  I shudder to think what might have happened to her in one to frighten her so. Before leaving for our outing I closed my bedroom door, so she would not grab laundry out of my basket.  I closed the downstairs closet door so she would not get into our shoes.  It was quite a surprise when I found this sock among her toys when we returned home.  Why, you might ask, was I surprised?  Because the sock was part of a pile of laundry on the bathroom floor.  And, because it was not destroyed. She just wanted it.  Obviously, she is not too scared to go in there when we are not home. 

 

 

 

Delaware Views Anew

When there is no news better view anew....

Playing around with layers and masks in CS3.

 

I almost tossed the background image and now I'm glad I didn't.  Works a lot better as a background than a stand alone.
