A Pet's Ten Commandments
1. My life is likely to last 10-15 years. Any separation from you is likely to be painful.
2. Give me time to understand what you want of me.
3. Place your trust in me. It is crucial for my well-being.
4. Don't be angry with me for long and don't lock me up as punishment. You have your work, your friends, your entertainment, but I have only you.
5. Talk to me. Even if I don't understand your words, I do understand your voice when speaking to me.
6. Be aware that however, you treat me, I will never forget it.
7. Before you hit me, before you strike me, remember that I could hurt you, and yet, I choose not to bite you.
8. Before you scold me for being lazy or uncooperative, ask yourself if something might be bothering me. Perhaps I'm not getting the right food, I have been in the sun too long, or my heart might be getting old or weak.
9. Please take care of me when I grow old. You too, will grow old.
10. On the ultimate difficult journey, go with me please. Never say you can't bear to watch. Don't make me face this alone. Everything is easier for me if you are there, because I love you so.

Finally finished some new shawl pins and introduced Mr Pickle

I actually got these made last week but just was able to get pictures made and get some of them listed. It has been a crazy week as we got Ren spayed on Tuesday not to mention the fact that I injured my back on Sunday so I have kinda had to sit still for a few days which is something that is hard for me to do. So many things going on right now. I have even been ask to head a crochet segment at http://www.naughtyknitterz.com/ which I need to get started on.

anyhoo about Mr. Pickle there was a group of us last year on Etsy that got into this thing about pickles so I ran with it and started design some pickle things, Mr Pickle was born and you never know what he might say. I have listed my first Mr. Pickle to give you a chuckle.
