Tales from the Beading Room

Yesterday was the first time I've gotten to sit down and bead since we've gotten Bella.  I have to say, it was so theraputic for all of us.  When I'm beading, I'm in complete peace.  As such both of my big dogs end up laying on the couch and falling asleep.

Adding a pint size Bella who is FULL of puppy energy to the mix I didn't know just how it would work.  She tends to want to wake up either of the other dogs that are sleeping just for the sake of saying she could.  LOL

SO I decided this would be a good opportunity to practice our crate training.  She does sleep in the crate at night, and in the morning when I'm doing dishes and cleaning up the kitchen I'll put her in there so she learns it's a "den" not punishment.

I put her little crate in the library with me, put her in it and started to put together the piece I was going to bead.  She fell asleep... sound asleep.  So as I worked on my piece, I had 3 perfectly peaceful sleeping dogs.  AMAZING!  To me the most wonderful feeling is knowing I as their owner am so at peace and giving off such a relaxed energy while I'm beading that all 3 dogs feel that energy and clunk out.  Priceless!

While my beading piece is far from finished, I got a solid 2 1/2 hours of quality bead time.  I think we're really gonna figure this out!  YEAH!

Hope your day is splendid!
