Elf in Wood - cross stitch

Three days of work on this.  Coming along very nicely.  My goal was to have page 10 finished by 3/7/15, but unfortunately I don't think that will happen.  No biggie.  I enjoy working on it so it makes it easy for me to work on it really just about any day.

Bonnie - special needs puppy

Yesterday 3/4/15 was the first day of her meds (phenobartial).   No changes of course, will take at least 2 weeks to see anything.  She did have 27 documented falls.  I am only counting what I visually see.  If I hear her or if it could have been a slip I don't count these.   Keeping a journal will definitely allow me the ability to see any changes, problems or what nots.

Bonnie - special needs puppy

Bonnie was born on 12/14/14 to Alexis & Jasper, 2 of our great danes.  Up until the time she was 8 weeks old all seemed to be normal.  Unfortunately a couple of days after leaving our care her new family noticed there was just something a bit odd about her.  She kept falling down.  After spending about 10 days with them, she was brought back to us.  We took her to the vet and a few days later she was diagnosed with atonic seizures brought on by lack of oxygen at birth.  She will start with her medication today to help her with these collapses.  We are praying that this helps her.

She is almost 11 weeks old & is an absolutely beautiful puppy and 100% a little spitfire.  Other than these "falls" she is normal.  Her coloring is unusual for a great dane and that makes her even more special.

Working on page 10 now.  This is the work I have so far completed for 3/1/15 & 3/2/15.  Stitching up very well.  Did have to frag 5 stitches, lol but who is counting.  I didn't like the very dark shadow in her lips.  Even though the color I had used was correct, it didn't look right.  

Elf in Wood (page 9 completed) - cross stitch

Love when a page is finished.  And have a very nice head start on page 10.  Still will take at least a week to do, but with such a lovely design it will just make me smile to do it.  Started the page 2/19/15 & finished it 2/28/15, 8 total stitching days.

I honestly feel that I should just have waited until I finished the page.  Just a few more blocks to finish off & page 9 will be complete.  She has a mouth!!!!!  So pretty this little lady :0)

I had forgotten to take a picture of my work for the 23rd, and then didn't stitch at all on the 24th & 25th.  But here is the update.  Wow, wow, wow :0)
