busy and healthy :)

Its been a bit up and down the last few weeks with 2 trips to emergency and a misdiagnosis thanks goodness. The good news is i dont have angina [freaking out at 51!!!!] but a hernia, which i can live with...
the other good news is that it got me out of a really stressful job into one which lets me sleep at night....so all is good :)

So into production Jenny and i have gone. I've made button fairies and got some lineny ornies on the go......we are hoping to have a very Christmassy and festive stall The Square Market Sunday the 11th DEC.

I've loved reading all your animal rescue comments too.....

One of the lovliest dog rescues happend at work a few years ago. we discovered a german shpeherd puupy living under the shop. we all fed it for about a week as it would come out a little bit and then run back in. finally, it was caught and faye took her home and called her jewel. she was very timid but grew into a lovely dog. when she went to the vet to have her shots they couldnt find a microchip so with faye she stayed. Then when she was bit older, she was taken into be spayed they found the micro chip using a different machine. her owners lived not far away from the store and the vet had to legally notify them. you can imagine how upset faye and her hubby were. they offered the owners money but no they wanted her. she went off to live in this house of wild kids and other big dogs.[these people were what we would call puppy farmers].
But wait..... theres a happy ending....after a few months they rang faye to collect her. she wasnt the same dog that returned home, timid and scared but she ran up the verandah and jumped in her bed, so happy to be home. Faye said she is doing much better but it was pretty obvious she had been mistreated. some people dont deserve to have their animals...or kids for that matter.


oh and Marco [Polo.....get it !!!!]the ferret has settled in really well too.

I have slowly been getting around for a big blog catch up too as we were on choke speed for nearly 2 weeks last month but never again . ive upped the gig so we can all watch and read what we want...not that there will be much of that the next two weeks :(

my old man ..the ferret whisperer...

or should it be rescuer...

we went off to do the weekly groceries this morning, not very exciting and as we walked into the car park a woman says theres a ferret over by the wall....hubs dumps the trolley to me and walks up to it [ talking to it like he does his dogs !] and calmly picks him up. He is really tame and he proudly walked him back to our car offering pats to the kids [who were, lets say, were a bit aprehensive, and their dads!! ]


we had nothing to carry him home in so put him in the car. we didnt even get out of the car park and he shot under my seat between my feet giving me a helluva fright...we stopped and gave him a dog bone to keep him amused...however he stashed that and kept roaming the car....it was the longest 3 minutes home lol....

now hes happily ensconsed next to some lady ferrets after having a huge drink [poor bugger, its hot here and there was no water to be found in the car park] and something to eat.

it reminds of luc at about 10. i got this phone call one day from the rspca to say there were some ferrets that needed rescuing. unbeknown to me she had rung up and put her name down to be a ferret rescuer....4 came home the next weekend....

thats my girl [and hubby] :)
