Oh My What a Hot Day!

Today is a hot day! It is only 11:33am and it is 74 degrees outside. It is suppose to be going to get up to 92 degrees today. And I'm already hot. It is so hot we put our clothes outside on a rack to dry in the sun.

We really enjoy our air conditioning this time of year. My dad is probably twice as hot at work today.

We have both our our fans running today.

I wish I could do this today

How to Care for an elderly Dog, what they need and what to expect

I have a small black dog named Sadie; she is 14 that is really old for a dog! She sleeps in my bed every night. She is a great dog. Now that she is old she does not move around much. She basically eats, poops, and sleeps.

I will advise you on how to care for an old dog, what they may need and what to expect in old age. I will also tell you what I do to care for my old dog.

Make a Picture Box

I made this picture box. I saw a video on how to make a picture frame. I thought it would be cool to make the design into a box frame. So I did! I am sorry I can’t explain to you how I made it in step by step instructions. All I can tell you is I followed the instructions in this video, except for cutting the frame so it will be a flat frame I used a whole box minus the lid. And instead of wrapping it in a gift bag I used fabric. I can’t tell you how I got it on the box. It was a little difficult to do, but it worked out, I had to sort of piece it on there. The picture box didn’t turn out as good as I would have hoped. But it still looks good. And it was a fun project.
