Messy Edges + Smile Freebie

Posted on Apr 26, 2011

Great Day! Sun was out and I didn’t need to haul hose to keep the plants alive. Rosie sent some rain down from her place overnight and the roof didn’t blow off! I am grinning like a fool!  Pork Chop Pond is coming along. Wet clay soil is sticky and a challenge to work with, its rained on and off for about 4 days, but when its dry its hard as a rock, so what-cha gonna do? We are getting there. I am wondering now if its going to be big enough? HOOT!

These are Monday’s pics when the storms were still with us…I don’t know why I didn’t take any pictures today. What a beautiful Day! Maybe it was my butt dragging the ground? I am not the digger I use to be. Wears me flat out. The grass is about 8 inches deep here. When its gone we will make better time.

Dove  hears gunshots, about to run to the house. For one moment in time she looks like the tough girl she is not.

Gracie slows down for a picture. Still very thin, but we are building muscle on this girl, not fat. Takes time. She is just about to tell me the Ducks are unguarded and there are cats afoot!

Thanks Grace! Lead On!

While we dig the baby ducks swim in the wheelbarrow. Mostly just floating on the wood Monday, since it was a bit chilly out. ( l to r) Vlad the Impailer, Batman, Attila the Hun , and Sid Vicious. In warmer weather …like today’s sunny one. They will dive under the water. Hope to get a shot of that if we are lucky.

Could Batman be warming to the camera? Nah. Notice Sid Vicious’ pointy collar? How appropriate.

5 12×12 inch, decorative paper edges. Messy? Yes! Grungie? Yes! With little design quirks to add interest and finish to your papers and layouts. Each in PNG format. Fun Tip: Duplicate a Messy Edge, then blur the lower layer, mess with the opacity until you get a nice smooth transition from Messy Edge to page design. YUM!

Freebie Time!

Going to turn in! Lots to do tomorrow and no storms tonight! Phew! Nice! Dove and Cherry Pie are afraid of storms and they get so wound up they need lots of attention. The men around here cover them until they hit the sack around 1 am, but as soon as their heads hit the pillow the dogs get lonely and the storms begin it seems. LOL! They need medication some nights or have a jacket put on. We got some Thundershirts and they work pretty good. Dove’s is too short for her and Cherry’s is too big by a little. They do give them some relief, but not as dramatic as they could if they fit proper. I still recommend them we just have odd shaped dogs. *grin*

Anywho! Happy Tuesday Friends! Any extra winks you don’t need  I sure could use!  Send them on overrrr…Zzzzzzz!

    Do you rent those young backs out? We have to dig out around the foundation this spring to waterproof the foundation. I will feed them well and keep them in pie…
    ROFL!!

    HA! …to go to Canada for a time? They would do it rent free in a heartbeat! Cake. You would have to keep Nathan in Cake, Dillon in Pop-Tarts!

    Dig around the foundation? No envy here, that is tough work!

    Oh my…the duckies are supervising the building of their pond! LOL! I forgot how cute ducklings can be, but they do grow out of it…one of our hens used to harass the heck out of the cats, I think she just did it for fun.
    Oh, and I did go get a couple of fish heads & bury them under the lilac, we’ll see what happens. Cross your fingers and toes that it perks it back up. Have a good rest of the week, hugs to all!

    Yes! They are crackin’ the whip on us! I can see them harassing the cats already! They have a good nip going and go after the cats butts and tails. It will be a wild ride for certain! Weee!
