(Bead) Art Imitates Life (my life, anyway)

Those pictures are adorable! Love the beads too, thanks for bringing a smile to my face! Arleen

That is so awesome. I love it.

That's such a cute story.

OKAY, Jerri....this made my day! I immediately sent it to Kevin.

And if I could proof read, I'd be dangerous! Sorry for the typos.

Sooz,

I have to admit, they gave me a chuckle. I might make them into earrings. Of course, no one would get it, but I enjoy an inside joke now and then, and can just wonder what people are thinking when they look at my earrings.

My other chuckle was thinking that I could have made throwing-up-child beads instead, since that's the other recent thing in my life, but these were much cuter. (A sick sense of humor and not enough sleep, and I come up with all these wonderful ideas.)

Thanks Arleen. The beads make me smile, although not quite as much as this silly dog does.

Thanks Debbie, glad you liked it.

I love Spike. He is just the _best_ dog. Even though I think Sophie's great, Spike is even cooler than the Sophster.

Does he know what "Fleecy Man" means? Sophie has a toy named Spike (rather ironically), and we can't say that word without her freaking out and looking for it. She used to have a yellow spike and a pink one, and we could tell her to find them by color, and she'd bring back the right one. Sadly, Doggie Alzheimers has more than kicked in on her, and she can't tell the difference any more. (She still knows the words, though and we cannot say them aloud) No matter, it's not like she has teeth to chew on them any longer.

Don't feel too bad for Sophie. She's spoiled rotten, and spends much of her day in the doggie beds or cushions that are in every room of the house. When Manda's friends come by, they have to greet and play with Sophie before anything else, and she gets her tummy skritched for hours.

Even more irony, I used to have a dachshund (Humane Society Special) named Sophie!

Yes, Spike knows what "fleecy man" means. He has a couple of fleecy toys, and will go get one if you ask, "Where's Fleecy Man?". Since getting the hippo, though, that's the fleece of choice, so he'll bypass the star and the little man, and run around looking for the hippo. He was really cute when hubby got home from work. He said, "hi dad" and then ran through the house looking for Fleecy Man, so he could show daddy his new toy.

And I've always known how good that little Sophie dog has it!

I love it! Beautiful beads, beautiful Spike!

I do indeed see why! I like him too and I'm very fussy about dogs. His glass counterparts are pretty cool too.

Cool! So is this like that Kevin Bacon game? (6 Degrees of Kevin Bacon, or something like that?)

I love hearing about Spike stories too. They are all so adorable.

ohmigod that is SO CUTE!

And the beads are adorable too.
