Doggie Swap
I signed up for the Rescue Dog swap over on Ravelry--no, we did not exchange dogs. When Gracie the pampered princess woke me up by barking at 5 a.m. today, the thought of exchanging her was tempting. Instead I retaliated by taking her for a really long walk (for her) this morning. She's been too tired to bark ever since. Take that, spoiled dog.
Anyway. My gifter was Eileen, and she spoiled me mightily:
A darling notepad, wool soak, a cute doggie card, a fun measuring tape to add ot my collection, a "dry" hand lotion, and Lorna's Laces in the Liberty colorway. There might have also been chocolate. Cadbury chocolate. A lot of Cadbury chocolate. If there had been, there isn't now. And also my very own teeny-tiny knitted sock, like all the cool knitters are making. It's displayed on the bulletin board in my office. Along with the chocolate--yeah, that's where the chocolate went. To the bulletin board in my office.
Thanks, Eileen!!!
Oh what a fun swap! Gracie's very lucky to be getting that long walk so early in the morning! Dante & Sierra have to wait till evening. Mommy & Daddy are not morning people!

Dry hand lotion looks pretty darn interesting - along with that Lornas - could make some wicked 4th of July socks with that stuff!

Am I weird, but please tell me that rescued pets make up a majority of pets, right???? I mean one of our cats was a barn cat and the other could have ended up in a shelter...(if we hadn't taken him). But I can't imagine buying a pet. Maybe I'm just weird. And cheap. Hm, wait, never mind!
Nice swapswag!

I have a tiny sock that both my girls wore when they were infants. It's hard to believe that the sock was too big.... I use it on the Christmas tree, and it makes me smile.
As for the chocolate: dark or milk?

Heh, I was looking and looking for the little sock... and then I kept reading.
