throw a wench in the works: Jul 17, 2019

Quarter 2 turned out to be suckfest. I lost my dog to renal failure.

The cat has been trying to be a bit more lovey but she's a weirdo. I miss him, his floof and his velvety nose.

I'm trying to regroup for Quarter 3....particularly before school starts up again.
So, I just got back from Sisters, Oregon....and I started a bunch more projects.
Not surprisingly, my list just got longer....I've got a lot of oldies, but I'm shuffling things around to give myself some to notice more than others.
Also, I'm still short some pictures. (Ahem, do as I say...don't shortchange your pictures if you want to win.)
