2 Zs, 2 finishes and 3 daffs ~

Two Zs will be my houseguests for the next week while son and his girlfriend are in Florida.  Here is Zala.

And Zeke. 


One of them, and I am guessing the female Zala, (according to son's girlfriend Zeke is just too perfect to do anything wrong . . . lol!) stole this little bunny that was sitting too low to the ground.  I assume she thought there was a squeaker inside that she had to rescue!


They are Pomskies . . . designer dogs.  Pomeranian/husky mixes.  Growing up we just called them mutts 😁

Getting ready for night night.


I actually have two finishes to share . . . at long last.  I am just S.L.O.W.

This little wonky cutting board must have been someone's shop project!  It is only 9 3/4" tall and 4" wide.


This big ole heart is 24" tall and 9" wide.  I think it looks pretty good on the old piece of barn siding.


Remember the daffodils I showed you that I picked last Friday?  (For perspective, the little bottle is 3 3/4 tall.)


Here they are today.


I know not everyone likes the time change (uh Robin!), but I love it.  That extra hour of daylight is heaven.

Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs 😊

  1. Very handsome dogs. Quite a size-wise adjustment for you from your beloved pugs! Great finishes. The cutting board is extra special because of its wonkiness❤️. The sheep opening up your post cracked me up. There is a cartoon they reminded me of ,Shawn the Sheep, that my grandson introduced me too.Their antics always give us laughs.
    Cool daffodils. I never knew they would open up like that in water. So cheery!

  2. There are numerous daffodils popping up around here too. Some still have limbs across them which need picking up. Will eventually get around to picking them all up eventually.
    I've a meme regarding time change on my blog post in process.
    Oh, I also like the wonkiness of the cutting board.

  3. Your hearts on the boards are great ! We wish we could get our hands on nice barn boards. My son used to repair the old tobacco barns when he worked tobacco . It made the best things !
    Your sons dogs are beautiful ! Hope they don't find more of your things to play with though !
    I Love daffodils , we still have lots of snow cover , so will be a while before we see those.

  4. Yes the Z's are cute but we also called them mutts. No Dafs here yet, but we are getting lots of rain. Unfortunately 4 folks died in the tornadoes from yesterday here in our state. We were not expecting bad weather so was a surprise for sure. I sure do love your hearts on those boards. You did an awesome job on both of them. Janice

  5. I agree with your son's GF...it must have been Zala. Zeke is too precious to do anything bad. (No disrespect to Zala intended...but 1) I've always found male pets and teachers to be preferable to female ones, 2) Zala seems to show a bit more of her Pomeranium than Zeke does, and 3) Zeke, of course, reminds me of Snowdog." Love your hooked hearts. The smaller one's color works so well with your redware - and I don't know who couldn't/wouldn't love the large one on the barnboard. The only daffodils I see bloom usually are those that I bring in as buds and put in water because they usually get to the bud stage outside and then get buried in snow or frozen. (And, NO!!! I am NOT happy about the time change and never, ever, will be. Just one more thing in a very, VERY, long list of things to be cranky about.)

  6. Enjoy the 2 Zs. Love your finishes. Nothing popping up here still to much snow. I do love the longer days.

  7. How cute! Are they related? Poor bunny. I need to look for my 3 daffodils. Concrete orange clay doesn't allow spreading.

  8. At long last, I came to visit. Yep, I'm still alive and busy... Maybe, the world is coming to an end???
    I love those beautiful Z's as long as they are not barky. lol...
    I admire those hearts. I'm thinking of you and all the red barn wood that you could use with your red hearts. Too bad our old barns are being demolished by the new owner and the boards are turned into splintered rubble. Then they are loaded onto a big tandem truck and taken away to be disposed of.

    I have one daffodil peeking a few inches out of the ground, but today I saw my first flock of Red Robins. Yesterday people all over the city were in shorts and tank tops. Today we are having freezing drizzle and I lit the wood stoves.
    Take care and stay safe and well.
    Hugs,
    Julia
