It’s done! This sweet little table will be in the Ten Sleep Library’s Silent Auction on Monday evening. I’m rather enamored of this little side table. If it doesn’t get any bids… I’m buying it back!
Throwback Thursday: Calf Pen, v.2.0
This was first posted December 5, 2014. They still do this, by the way. If I had wanted to put them in there, I couldn’t have done it. They would have refused in a split second. But now, they WANT to be in there. There is no food, there is no water. They have bent…

Brag Time
The English Shepherd calendar has just been released. Lookee, lookee! Yup, that’s Jekyll and Brandon on the cover! Hahaha! Jekyll is the second Aussie to make the cover photo… Anyone out there remember Boomer? He was our barking black Aussie who would chase sticks and rocks and bubbles… and cows. He made it to the…
On Hold
Well, I didn’t get my little table finished. I am ready to stain it, but all I have downstairs is pecan, grey, and onyx. I was looking for more of a light walnut, more brown than red. Since I have to head to Worland tomorrow, it’ll just set me back a day, and that’s ok….
Donation
Last week, I asked a friend to build me another little end table. He’s the great guy that built the “wildflower” tables I painted HERE and HERE. Instead of keeping it for myself, we are jointly donating it to the Silent Auction for the Christmas Open House at the Ten Sleep Library. I asked another…
Happy Batday
We had a quick visit from Victoria and her boys. She hauled Christmas decorations and with Megan, started to put out my Christmas decorations. These visits are fast, trying to cram fun and work in together, and I’m very blessed to have her come over and for her kids to have cousin time. Meagan and…

Happy Thanksgiving from my family to yours!
Looking Good
I was back to work at the library for my first full day since the end of September. It’s the big push to get ready for all of our December activities, so I spent the day decorating the library. However, there was no climbing ladders for me! Our high standard of decorating to the max…
Step by Step
Another physical therapy day and I continue to improve. My 30 minutes on an exercise bike is now joined by short walks with hiking sticks. I continue to walk crooked, favoring a knee that no longer needs favored. Striding out balanced by the poles should help. Of course, I hike on the highway, preferring its…
Return
Vernon and I drove the side by side up the mountain. We knew a few inches of snow lay on the ground but were unsure of how drifted it would be and if we could make it to our destination. Vernon, however, is a determined and talented driver. My new little tables are in place….
