How to save him


This is Blu he is, I believe 3,and he is going to be put down on Tuesday.

His human family got him during COVID , he was never socialized or taken anywhere and has become aggressive to anyone who comes to the house that is not there all the time.

He got his name from his beautiful blue eyes, although you can’t see then in the photo. He played with my dog outside for awhile until he was bigger and ended up getting into a fight with my dog. Blu was running up to my husband and my dog stepped in between. Blu has only associated with the dog and cat living in the home and not been leash trained.

I feel for him so much because he is being put down on Tuesday. The family has three kids with lots of friends and family that has to call ahead or wait outside to visit. Blu goes in his crate when he is alone and stays on his short run outside.

I can’t take him due to my dog and I live next door. He needs someone who is skilled to help him become people friendly but he is such a good boy in the house with the family. It’s not fair he has to be put down, he is still young and healthy. It makes me sad being an animal lover.

My world stopped


Why is the sun rising?

Why are the birds singing?

Why has the world kept living

My heart is shattered, my mind is muck , my body is numb , I can’t get unstuck.

The moment he left me my world split and shattered.

I have never experienced such pain, such anguish as I did on that day, that day you went away.

My best friend, my soul mate, the reason my world spun, my husband, my hero, David Bernier. My love, my life, is gone

Cross for teenage boy?


My best friends son wanted me to make him a cross with his birthstone in it for him. I must admit I had a hard time deciding what to make for a boy about to be a teenager.

I started to just play with my wire at first, most of these are lopsided but I was just thinking. Then I decided to go a different way and came up with the cross I gave him. He likes it so that’s all that matters really!

Upcycled grill


Cleaning up around our yard I ran across the old grill, lightbulb!!! I have seen photos of people doing this and thought it always looked cute so off to the Depot I went.

The selection of perennial plants was limited so I’m not very happy with the look but maybe once they grow out it will look better.

Decided to add some lights and what a pain that was!! The watering can I used had a difficult spout so getting the lights through was not easy! First I had to make 10 holes bigger, then I had to find a long sturdy wire to thread in and wrap the lights around good enough to pull back through, took me awhile to think of cutting the first light on each end off to stop it from getting stuck at the hole and slipping off, but I finally got it. Phew! Done !
