It's day...(checks calendar) 12 of Thingadailies!
Foster Updates
Gnocchi remains her lovely, obnoxious self. Lulu has continued to improve and was playing quite a bit this morning. You can still see the extra effort when she needs to use her hind end, but she's throwing herself around with a lot of energy!
Yay, Lulu!
Names
Today is Thursday, which is the day to spend a couple hours at the library's makerspace with my friend Teresa. I decided to make name cards for my longer term fosters using the Silhouette Cameo. The cards will go on the doors to their rooms as soon as I find my tape.
The angle I used to take the pictures is weird because I used reflective cardstock and it is hard to photograph.
I like how they turned out.
Maybe there will be audio work tomorrow...
Yay Lulu! I'm so glad she's doing better. She looks fabulous and it seems she loves to play. The cards did turn out well. Very nice (and creative!) Good luck with the critique. Better you than me. I used to do a lot of them. It's kind of nice to have snuck away!
ReplyDeleteI keep forgetting Lulu is less than six months old, but now she's starting to act her age.
DeleteThe critiques almost always make me a stronger writer ("oh yeah, I totally do that all the time, that's a problem...") but they are definitely a lot of work.
Agreed. A good critique group is gold. I used to be on the Baen one. Learned a lot. Then I did critiques for a group of writers for quite some time and continued to learn. One thing I did learn was the horror is not for me. Even critiquing it made me queasy. Almost any graphic violence is right out. I love Estep's pacing and plotting, but she tends to have torture in some of her novels and I can't read that. Sure, I can and do skip over it, but it still bothers me.
ReplyDeleteLulu is awesome. I hope she continues to improve. Maybe it was the thiamine. Maybe it was the extra pets and hugs from you!
