OFF LIKE A HERD OF TURTLES!

We're off to our Stitcher's Getaway Weekend with Miss Theresa of Homestead Needlearts! This time, we'll be traveling to Port Huron, MI to the Thomas Edison Inn. Woo Hoo!
My clothing bag isn't packed yet, but I did get my stitchy stuff all ready to go (priorites, don't you know).
Stewey decided to camp out in his apartment this morning. (Yes, I know. It's a cage. But we call it an apartment to avoid any negative images of being locked up.) I don't usually put him in his apartment, but I leave it out so that he can go in if he wants to.
Nanny will be here, so Stewey is very excited. She actually PLAYS with him (gee, like I don't) and I think she also takes him for long walks (OK. So. I'm one for two.) He also insisted that I point out WHICH treats he gets WHEN! If he doesn't have his Greenie and three little biscuits for breakfast it throws his whole day off. And God forbid he doesn't get the proper night night snack or there is puppy hell to pay. I'm just hoping that I don't come home to PeePolooza and that he minds his manners.
That's it for me....better go pack some clothes or it's pajamas and slippers all weekend! (Would that BE so wrong?)

  1. Hi Coni,

    If I were Stewey and all of that stash packing was going on, I'd hide also! :-)

    I love how as stitchers we pack our projects before we pack our clothes. LOL!

    PJ's and slippers wouldn't bother me but the other guests might not appreciate the wardrobe. Though you could tell them that it was PJ stitching and that you all meant to dress that way! LOL!

  4. PeePalooza...LOL! Having a little boy dog with minor piddle issues (something got nicked during his neuter surgery and he has control issues sometimes), I think I've found a new term that I can use. :-)

    Have fun!

  8. Hi Coni,

    I'm sure you had a wonderful stitching time! But I must tell you that you are the first person in 20 years I have heard you the phrase "Off Like a Herd of Turtles". That was my aunts favorite phrase next to "I feel like a wet potato chip".

    Will be waiting to hear about your stitching weekend and if Stewey engaged in a PeePalooza!
