New Ideas

The great thing about what I do and the medium I choose to work with is that I can create WHATEVER I want!  With that in mind I just wanted to share my latest idea with you all.  I've been thinking about creating a candle with a pink ribbon - the universal symbol for cancer.  Part of the proceeds I would donate to a cancer charity.  The reasoning behind this is that my mother had breast cancer at the young age of 36.  She was treated successfully, thankfully, and has been clean for almost 30 years.  Yay!  Without advances in cancer research, however, who knows what would have happened.  That is why this is dear to my heart.  (We all know, as well, that this can be genetic.  As soon as I turned 30 I started having mammograms and they haven't found anything yet I'm pleased to share with you all.)  Anyway, haven't made one yet, but in the process.  Thought I'd share the idea and see what u all thought.  Leave my some comments.  I'd love to hear what u think.

An update on Cocoa

As you all know my dog Cocoa was getting really sick with a raw food diet and I was unsure what to do.  I have since talked to the vet and asked about feeding her myself.  Meat, carbs (rice), veggies, and fruit.  She said it should be okay but to make sure I give her a vitamin supplement as well.  So this is what I have been doing and she is doing SO well.  She's been so much more excited about her food lately and also way more energy. Gotta talk to the vet some more and work out some possible kinks, but I think this is what we will be doing from now on.  I always thought I wanted to do this and truly feed her all natural, so here goes!  :)

My latest creations!

My poor dog, Cocoa. I changed her food lately - to a raw diet - and she's got so sick. Throwing up. :( I found out after the fact, also, that vets don't really recommend raw food diets anyway. I hope I can get my money back. Even if I don't I'm sad I made her sick with what I thought was a good change. :( Poor baby.

I Love Splenda!

A few years ago I was diagnosed with a couple disorders that forced me to give up sugar, and most carbs. :(  I also had to give up caffeine which meant coffee was completely out of the question. :( :(  However, I can still drink decaf.  It's not bad if that's your only option. :)  The one thing I REALLY miss tho, is hazelnut flavoured coffee and creamers.  There's french vanilla flavoured coffee out there, but not hazelnut.  I haven't found any good hazelnut flavoured creamers either that wouldn't be loaded with sugar.  UNTIL NOW!  I LOVE SPLENDA!  They came out with coffee creamer flavours and they have HAZELNUT!  Yaaayyy!  And I don't have to worry about sugar levels.  I'm so excited!!  Yay splenda.

Pets

I have a wonderful shih tzu beeshon dog.  (Spelling right??)  She's so cute!  She makes my life happy and I laugh every day.  Unfortunately I can't find my pics of her right now, but I'll show them to you whenever I do.  What kind of pets do you have?  Do you have pics somewhere?  I'd love to hear from you.
