Remember that baby blanket I started four years ago?
Well, evidently, I used the wrong yellow yarn to make all 96 of those yellow center flowers, so I have to make them all over again with the right yarn. They are too big.
The container is starting to refill again. This time with new yellow flowers. I did not toss out the larger ones. They went into a box and in storage (for now). In my spare time (ha ha ha, ho ho ho he he he!!!) I will put them in another blanket (maybe).
Oh, this battle will be won. Said in a very stern, determined voice.
We had to do an emergency trip to the vet yesterday. We have been letting the puppies out into the goat fenced area, to romp and play and see how they like a fenced area.
Well, they love it. The bad news, is that foxtail grows in the goat fenced area. And we have not had goats out there to eat it down since last summer.
King plays hard with Zuri some days, and yesterday he landed on her hard, pushing her nose into the ground (a few times). She came in sneezing badly.
An hour later, she was still sneezing. An hour went by, and she had another sneezing fit By 1:00pm, she was sneezing out blood.
We guessed it was foxtail up her nose, and after a vet visit and paying $277.00, we were right. The vet pulled a fairly large piece of foxtail, and it was most likely from the romping in the goat pasture.
A dog fence is now on the "to-do" list. I just hope we can get one up this spring, with all our other big jobs.
Zuri is not sneezing today, and back to her puppy shenanigans.

And what a crazy situation with the puppies! Occasionally my husband has a sneezing fit and can't stop (but only for a minute or two, not for hours) so next time that happens I'll check his nose for foxglove! ;o} Poor puppy and bad hit to your budget with the vet bill. Ugh.
So sorry about the vet bill...ouch! that is pricey and the poor pup!
I hope she's doing better now.
Glad the pup will be ok. I didn't know foxtails could cause that much of a problem.
Prayers everyone has a safe happy weekend. Suppose to be warm here, high 60s, so going to try to get some outside work done.
God bless.
