200..

posts!  For me? A miracle.  I get distracted by projects, books, the weather.
Pretty much everything.
This is post 201 and I meant to mention post 200 on that post.  See what I mean?

I should have a giveaway when I reach a bigger number.
  I can give away..hmm..some deer?  The Chaos Dogs?  Michael?
Pig!  I'll giveaway Pig!

It's been a full week since we've seen Pig.  I'm guessing she's gone for the winter.
I checked photos from last year and she vanished in early October.
We haven't seen any signs of a dead animal around (not being morbid, it's just nature) so..
Goodnight, Pig!
I saved this image for her official Fall Retirement.


I have amazing aim, huh?
Don't ask how many flowers were tossed (and eaten) before I landed one.
The key to this is breaking all of the stem off and making sure the back of the daisy is as flat as possible.  Just in case you want to try this at home (yeah, don't do that).

Michael's alarm went off at 4 am.
Voodoo expresses our feelings exactly:



Enjoy your day!
Take a nap for us...

    Oh my God.... The picture of Pig with flower on his head made my whole weekend, especially with the advice on how to do this at home! Can you post it somewhere so I can make make a 9 x 12 portrait to put in my house? More pig pictures, please. I totally identify with this animal.

    I can't believe you got that daisy on Pigs head. You are AMAZING! Cutest picture ever! Well, until I got to VooDoo and that I laughed out loud!

    Congratulations on going over 200!! Fantastic. So glad I found you and your blog.

    i just snickered at the vision of you beheading a pile of daisies and tossing one after another until you were dead-on pig-headed perfect... i'm worried how you'll fill your days now that she's hibernating... heck, i'm worried how WE'LL fill our days without pig pix... :)

    I"m gonna miss Pig. I hope it's a short winter. That picture of her is a great choice to tide us over, though.

    It must be the North American day for spoiled dogs to sleep in today. After getting up and letting Cotton out, and then had to return to my room, pick up Tallulah and drag her out of bed. And that was at 8:00am, not 4:00.

    Before I would trust the weather man I would trust the Pig, Do you think it is going to be a cold winter if she has already moved into her winter lodgings? Did she move in that early last year? I love her daisy hat. It is a very cute picture.
    Congrats on 201 Posts!! That is a milestone.
    Have a lovely week.

    PS...I would like your furbaby at a 4am alarm.

    So sad that Pig is asleep for the winter. She provides such eye candy!

    You've got such good aim! And I am surprised that Pig doesn't complain about much of anything you put on her head! Like tortillas that one time, LOL!

    I fee much like VooDoo. Its been a very lazy day here!

    All I can say is, I'm sure Pig will sleep well this winter-she has been well fed:@)

    Nooo, I'm already in Pig withdrawal. The Daisy ... you've got to be kidding ... fabulous image.

    I didn't realize that this was Pig's 2nd year in residence. I hope she enjoys her sleep. This gives you a good 5 months to dream up new things you can toss at her head...

    I felt much like Voodoo today when I heard the birds singing and all the dogs barking. they all woke me up too early so I stubbornly stayed in bed much too long

    That is the cutest picture of Pig ever! I can't wait for her to come back in the Spring. You'll have to have her a welcome back dinner party when she does come back out!

    Poor Voo! I hate it when my husband gets up that early to go to work. I'm always miserable the rest of the day because of it.
