Week One...

It's been absolutely insane, but I haven't smiled this much in a very long time.

With a face like this, how could I not!



Saying Stella is a complete handful is an understatement. For some reason I don't remember our Darla being this wild as a pup.
But then again I'm older, my memory isn't so good and I occasionally wear my bra and wears on the outside of my clothes. ((giggle))

Yesterday, was one week Stella has been with us. So we decided to put her and Gracie together in the living room.
Gracie on the couch, Stella on the floor. I had on a black and white striped ref shirt and wore a whistle.

Stella immediately went for her thinking they would both have a ball and play together. Oh but Gracie had other plans. The fur stood up on the back of her neck as she belted out a snarly "get the h*ll outta my space" bark. It was then followed up with lots of growling and more barking.

It didn't phase Stella in the least. She wanted to play. She ran back in front of the couch when all of the sudden she barked! Her first bark!! We all stood there like deer in headlights. Even Stella had a look of "What the h*ll was that??!!"

Needless to say, with her new found voice she literally barked herself dry to where she started to gag. Stella didn't get to play with Gracie and Gracie still hates her. We tried it again today. A repeat performance of yesterday.

So are things any better? Not really. I guess it's just going to take time. A very l-o-n-g time. Man these are the days I wished the Dog Whisperer was our neighbor.

But on a happier note, I was able to finish three pieces I'd been working on prior to Stella's arrival. YIPPEE!!
Two will be on TDIPT Mercantile for Feb 1st and the third will be listed on my selling site!!

Happy Sunday!!
