Gammy's Hope Part One

I finished the first clue of Gammy's Hope (Christine's Rose Garden). It is turning out very pretty. I love this yarn and the design.

I haven't said anything about it because I guess I felt so bad about it, I felt so guilty, that I hadn't been a good owner.......a couple of month's ago my little Katie Scarlet, my Yorkie, went missing. I wouldn't let her out during the day or she would high tail it down the hill to the neighbors but I found if I let her outside when it was dark she would go out, do her business and come back in. This particular night after I let her out I heard a bunch of barking, when I went to the door only Jordan's dog, Roegun, came in. I went out and called and called but no Katie Scarlet. The next morning I walked all around the property along the fence rows, by the ponds, the woods and in the barn but couldn't even find any sign of her. I made a sign and put it up and went to the neighbors down the hill knocking on doors but no one had seen her. Either someone or something got her.

This week I went to the Bowling Green Humane Society and found the most precious little baby anyone could ever find. She is a mix but they called her an Australian Shepherd and she is approximately 6-7 months old. They had found her as a stray out in the county somewhere. She is so sweet, docile and obedient. She and Roegun get along beautifully. I named her Sadie. And I always have to give a middle name, I don't know why, I guess it is another one of those Southern thangs. Meet Miss Sadie Mae.

I love your blanket, oh gosh, could I fit it in??? What are the dimensions of your blanket, width wise, with your yarn?
A new baby, she is a doll, and a perfect name!!

I am sooo very sorry to hear about Katie Scarlet. I pray some she is at home safe and sound with another family. Sadie Mae is a cutie and I think her breed is good at tending sheep. Maybe sheep are on your horizon? At any rate, you have given a gorgeous dog a happy home and written another entertaining blog.

I'm so sorry to hear about Katie Scarlet. I'm glad you were able to rescue a cutie. Don't be surprised if folks ('specially little ones) get "herded" around in your home.
