(Bead) Art Imitates Life (my life, anyway)
Here's the art:
http://www.beadbimbo.com/ebay/spikehippo.jpg And here's the live part: http://www.beadbimbo.com/ebay/spikehippo4.jpg and watching out the window for evil squirrels: http://www.beadbimbo.com/ebay/spikehippo3.jpg This weekend, while running errands, DD and I saw this "Fleecy Man", as we call them, in the form of a hippo. We just couldn't resist. Spike loves fleecy toy. His first year or so with us, he'd pull out the squeakers, and I'd sew them back up. After a while, he learned that he loved being able to make noise, so he left the squeakers alone. We came home and casually left the hippo on the edge of the kitchen counter and when Spike came in the room, we didn't say anything. It took him about a minute to notice, and he jumped up and snatched his new "Fleecy Man". And this dog never jumps up at the counters! He ran happily around the house for about 10 minutes, tossing his head, showing off. It took about a day before Spike even put the hippo down. He carried it everywhere, except outside, and when he went to bed, he carried it in there and put it in his bed and slept with it. When he got up in the morning, he was still carrying it around. See why I like dog so much? It takes so little to make their day. -- Jerri www.beadbimbo.com |

Thanks Arleen. The beads make me smile, although not quite as much as this
silly dog does. -- Jerri www.beadbimbo.com "Arleen" wrote in message . .. Those pictures are adorable! Love the beads too, thanks for bringing a smile to my face! Arleen |

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.) Jerri www.beadbimbo.com "Dr. Sooz" wrote in message ... OKAY, Jerri....this made my day!
