I have 3 bichons myself and yes, they are labor intensive when it comes to grooming. Miss a day and you have a mess, miss a week and you have matting so bad all you really can do is shave them down. I learned this when we took a week’s vacation and left them in a neighbor’s care. Never fear, the “wool” does grow back.

They are well worth the time it takes to brush them everyday. I have never had a dog who was so loving, kind and faithful. Fortunately, we don’t have to deal with the flea issue, for some reason I have never learned, we don’t have them here in the desert of the Southwest (U.S.)

Also, loved the poem, so true, so very true. Always knew there was some reason I married the (now ex-) lug. But the poem expresses it so well.

The book you made was beautiful and the idea of the storage box is a bit of genius.

KC

Once my sons graduated from uni and left home, I felt more relaxed and certainly less financially challenged. Once they both became husbands and fathers themselves, I felt totally liberated.

We have been raining now for 4 days and my satellites are simply fogged in.

I am amazed that I have a signal today!! Diane, please leave me a message and let me know if you sale your books online. If so then please let me know where I might have a look around.

You are so very talented and your books would make such wonderful gifts!

I wrote a comment extolling just how wonderful this entire post and how much I love this book. I have to agree including a box is wonderful.

I love all of your creations Diane but this definitely going to rank in my personal top five.

The reception at the castle looks marvelous. It reminds me just exactly why England has stolen my oldest daughter’s heart forever!!

Now I have fingers crossed that this comment will post, I won;t lose my connection, as we are still having storms, and I hope you are having a grand day!!

I’m giving the posh frock another outing for my god daughter’s wedding in October – maybe I’ll get a photo of it then :-)

Glad you liked the book, Renny.

Missed her unfortunately, she’s not very fashionable but I think she’s hilarious :-)

Nice piece of book art from you again Diane!

I’m off for a new ‘do’ on Friday too! We should compare notes. If I had a short do, I would lose a couple of pounds. Hmmm there’s a thought…
