We call this Rocky Mountain High....

This is the second project in the Toni Burt Water + Color class online. Toni provides us with the 3 images from Pinterest to use as reference. Makes it easy to follow her instructions. The difference with this one is that it was a much smaller face. I have a problem working this small. But forcing myself to do this will eventually make it easier. Right? Right????

Gracie pulled a muscle at the dog park on Sunday, acting like she was 2 instead of 9. Yesterday I called the vet and got a fresh batch of Rimadyl, the canine version of ibuprofen. FYI, you can't give your dog aspirin, ibuprofen, or Tylenol.  I took this photo last night after the drug had been in her body for about 2 hours. Can we say high? She was in fact very loopy. That's my girl! Feeling much better this morning. And that's the reason I like giving my dogs this particular drug. One or two doses, and the problem is usually solved.

Have a great day, and stay safe. This is a killer heat wave we are having.
