Tuesday seemed like a good day to create a table setting, so I got out some more of my Cape Cod ware and set it up on a cream-colored placemat. After adding the cute heart border, I decided to put a light crinkle texture overlay. The hardest part is showing the deep reds while also showing the intricate design and not allowing too much red in the shadows. This glassware is so pretty in person, and though I have usable pieces, I can't imagine using them for anything but looking good. :-)
After getting it all done, I realized I had two sets of two-of-a-kind, so it's perfect for item 89 in the 118 Pictures group.
Freida is a Fashion Friend play doll by Ruby Red Galleria.
The dress is made by me from a sewing pattern by Forever 18inch called "The Versatility Dress" (found on pixiefaire.com).
Sometimes I feel the urge to sew for a new doll without having to go through the time consuming process of designing the pattern myself, so I'm very glad we can purchase online sewing patterns for our dolly needs. That dress took about 1 hour to make, so that's good good good.

So I had to call my boss/the CEO at the crack of dawn b/c Ruby Red was sick. I'm very fortunate that she is an animal lover and has 4+ kitties and other animals of her own.. Ruby Red is doing ok, she got a few injections for pancreatitis flare.
The bigger concern in Ms Phoebe. I decided to bring her in as well. Last week she ate a few foam objects (she has had pica since she was a tiny kitten and thus I kitty-proof my home but obviously missed some foam). Need all the prayers you have to the Poopy Deity.. hoping and praying that the rest of the foam comes out the other end!

Waiting for blood work results
So the good news is Ms. RubyRed's kidneys are actually better than they were in the past few years.
But my sweet girl is very sick, has acute pancreatitis.. she evidently stopped eating / drinking due to nausea. She'll be in the hospital at least until the weekend. She needs to be NPO for 2 to 3 days to rest the pancreas, so IV fluids and various meds. The vet was great and I know she is in good hands. I have to cal later to check in with him for an update.
Thank you everyone for your love and prayers.

Little pink bleeding buds
Came out overnight
And in the sun rays
Their hearts sparked to ignite

Une nouvelle variété de Kiwi fruit a fait son apparition en Nouvelle Zélande qui porte bien son nom, le Rubyred. Comme son nom l'indique, sa chair présente du rouge tel un rubis.

This year the first day of the Chinese Year falls on Valentine's Day February 14, 2010
A calendar is a system we use to measure the passage of time, from short durations of minutes and hours, to intervals of time measured in days, months, years and centuries. These are fundamentally based on the astronomical observations of the movement of the Sun, Earth, Moon and stars. Days are measured by the duration of time of one self rotation of the Earth. Months are measured by the duration of time of rotation of the Moon around the Earth. Years are measured by the duration of time it takes for the Earth to rotate around the Sun.
fun facts:
The Chinese calendar predates our 430 year old Gregorian based international calendar by many centuries whereby our year 2010 is year 4708 in the Chinese calendar. This year of 2010 is the Year of the Tiger which is also known by its formal name of 'Geng Yin'.

Chinese New Year Traditions:
Red Envelopes
Red envelopes (hóng bāo) are given to children and unmarried adults. Married couples also give red envelopes to their parents. The envelopes contain money in new bills, and the total amount must be an even number. “Four” is a homonym for “death” therefore the total amount should never contain $4, $40, or $400.
Lantern Festival and Fireworks
The Festival proper begins on the first day of the first lunar month (Chinese: 正月; pinyin: zhēng yuè) in the Chinese calendar and ends on the 15th; this day is called Lantern Festival. The Chinese believe that evil spirits are driven away by loud noise therefore the Chinese New Year is a very loud celebration. Firecrackers are set off throughout the near two week long holiday, and there are many displays of fireworks lighting up the evening skies.
Some countries such as Singapore and Malaysia restrict the use of fireworks, but Taiwan and Mainland China still allow almost unrestricted use of firecrackers and fireworks.
Chinese Zodiac
The Chinese zodiac cycles every 12 years, each year is named after a respected animal.

flickr today
screenshot from video by Dr Jon
Today has been a roller coaster. The vet , Dr Jon, called early & reported that my sweet girl was not doing to well, liver enzymes still up & bilirubin is higher. Mostly likely the cause of her lethargy, trouble walking, & not eating. Probably a result of the pancreatitis. Talked a long time including making hard decisions in the next few days.
30 min later he texted me a video of Ruby Red eating, he's encouraged by this. Talked again this afternoon, she only ate a little bit , but she's no worse. Says Ruby Red purrs and meows when he pets and loves on her. He'll talk to me in the morning unless something changes.
So thankful for a kind caring vet.
After hours with busy beavers we packed it up and headed to the car. We came upon a gaggle of photogs and saw this. I ran for the car and my tripod and grabbed this shot. Another damn sunset. Truly this was the color and vibrance. But I love eyes. There are none here. If only....if wishes were fishes we'd live in the ocean..
