I did this Celebrity Look-Alike thing ages ago, and I was inspired to try it again with a new photo.

Lucille Ball and Bette Davis ALWAYS show up for me.

You can give it a try here. After you sign up (it’s free), you’ll want to click on “Face Recognition”. Please leave a link so I can see yours!

Since I was busy drowning in doggie affection on Friday, today we’ll have the first-ever, fast-topic-changing Monday.

I have “custody” of all four Basenjis for the next four weeks, and I’m having a blast.

And here we go…

	It’s all dogs, all the time around here right now. The boys have picked up right where they left off, as if they never spent any time apart. I’m having so much fun with them! This is another photo from my self-portrait project. Next…!
	I’m thisclose to being finished with my second Fiona dress, this time in a larger size. I’ve added this size to the pattern, so now the dress can be made to fit sizes between 3 and 24 months. Finally. Next…!
	Within one hour of being at my house, Gus successfully removed the stuffing from the only two dog toys that were still (surprisingly) intact. Good times. Next…!
	Aww. I knit these up for a friend to give away at a baby shower, in a trade with her. She’s as good with a sewing machine as I am with knitting needles…so I made her these, and she’s going to alter a few of my tshirts to be more flattering. This is the Baby Hat from One Skein and Super Quick Baby Socks from Blossom Knitwear. Both knit in Berroco Ultra Alpaca. Next…!
	Gutters might be more important than I anticipated. Next…!
	Dontcha know? All the cool kids are flipping their beds upside-down nowadays. Have a great week!

Guess who has an extended date with four handsome men?

It’s so nice to see them together again. This is so much fun! Gotta go!

1. Please remember to keep the bathroom doors closed.
2. If you can’t find something, check the backyard.

Last night I was talking with my friend, and the conversation turned to dogs. That just happens to be one of my favorite topics.

He said that dogs don’t feel “love” the way humans do, and to assume that would be incorrect and a personification. He expected me to disagree with him – but I don’t, I agree. Love is a very complicated emotion, and dogs have tiny brains. Who knows how dogs really feel?

On the other hand, I do understand the pack mentality. I’ve read lots of books and lived in a pack for the last decade. And I can say with confidence that my dogs’ natural desire to…

	Move with me…
	Be still with me…
	Communicate…
	Show affection…
	Impress…
	Protect…
	Chill…
	and play with me…all of these things feel like love.
	It probably isn’t really “love”, but it’s a close second, and I know they give me the best their tiny brains will allow. Which makes me love them back.
