Before . . .

OK, before the battery on my camera died, I took some pictures. Here is my: 1 - Skein winder do-dah - BEFORE I cleaned it (it's still not cleaned); this is 2. the lacey thong undies i knit my girl child for her bridal shower. She told me the next day they were a smidge too small and could I make them bigger (sure, but guess what?? wedding is less than 2 weeks away and I have not finished the other pair. In fact THIS lacey thing is MIA. If you have it - I NEED IT BACK. That sounds like i just toss panties around like - well, I don't. I let someone borrow them from a knit night to show their co-workers that "this ain't your grandma's knitting" and I have not seen them since.... but then again, I have not seen the lady I loaned them to either - so it's all good and everything.. but i'd like them back and finally, picture 3 is the lovely Miss Lucy - the "before" surgery -as you can see, she is a 4 legged dog here. This picture was taken a month or more ago, can you see the bump on HER right leg? That's the cancer... it had gotten to be as big as a lime or small lemon.. I took some "after" pics this morning. nothing too grosss, but needless to say, it's not for the weak... My bad**s dog has a scar about 18" long! But the bad*s factor is diminished by the lovely lampshade she wears to stop her from licking the drain tube (barf) or staples (double barf). How did I raise two kids with such a weak stomach??
