Today, we added 3 new chinchillas to our little chin family.
Lilly, an awesome 2 year old brown velvet.

Luigi, a 2 month old standard.

And Gina, a standard who is a fur chewer with an unknown history. She was a resue. My hubby just fell in love with her.

They join Nero and Bianca, a dark ebony and a [...]

My brother and I decided to hike at Black Mountain here in Crossville last week. It was a beautiful Spring day, a great day for hiking. Our first stop was an overlook. While it remains a little brown around that area, it is still very beautiful!

We left the overlook and proceeded down the trail. But, [...]

As I wrote about yesterday, I have been put to the task of making a hymnal angel for a friend. My last attempt was a bit drab, lacking color. So, today I found the exact ribbon I wanted to line the wings. It is a beautiful golden orange that fades down to a blue – [...]

You may remember me telling you about the craft party I had with my ex co-workers. While they were here, I showed them some of my other ideas. Yesterday, I got a call from one of those ex co-workers to order a book angel as a gift for one of her friends. What an honor!
So, today I [...]

Today I am bummed! I am sitting at my same weight for the 3rd day in a row! Per protocol, I am supposed to have a “steak day” or an “apple day.” But, I decided to wait just one more day to see what happens for tomorrow’s weigh in. My friend told me that sometimes when [...]
