a breakthrough in molly's recovery!!

first things first, a kiss for you from my bunny dingus :



yeah, it's been a week since i've blogged. i've been busy. very busy. i'm on an sewing kick right now, don't have any idea why, but there it is. in the last week, i've made 15 aprons, 6 pillowcase dresses, and 1 hippie twirly skirt. and a bunch of other stuff. getting ready for the blue dome festival is hard work!! luckily i haven't been out serving people, but i'll be doing that later in the week.

anyway! news of molly!!!

she's the french angora rabbit i have: she's a rescue, and i've had her almost a year. we really don't know much about her, except that she came from a
home with small children. when we got her, she couldn't
stand to be touched, and if you put your hand in her hutch
to feed her, she would lunge and try to bite you. on the rare
occasions that you "had " to touch her, she shook and
trembled the whole time making this little rabbit squeak
that let's you know they're scared.
it was really sad that she didn't realize that nobody
here was going to hurt her.

so this past week, as i've been feeding her, she's been
getting closer and closer to my hand every day. and then yesterday, she put herself between the food dish and the cup of food. i pet her. just for a second. she made her squeaky noise, but didn't move away. today, she actually
laid down in front of my hand, and let herself be pet on the head for about a minute. pauly got to see it and took the picture for me. if i didn't have a picture, i might not believe that it really happened. she's such a sweet girl, and i'm soooooo excited that maybe we'll get to be friends someday. yay! molly's home!!

so, while the camera and the bunny barn were in close proximity to each other, i decided to take some pics of the goobers.... here they are:



seamus, a total turd bomb. and i'm being nice! all he wants to do is get laid. unfortunately, that ain't happening for him. if he had a t shirt it would say "hey baby, meet me in the bushes."



then there's the 3 boys, aengus, dingus, and fergus mcgee. they all will be one in about 2 weeks. they're brats, and always chomping to get out and go to turnout. but i love 'em to death.

aengus:


fergus, he's the white one, and dingus, who's aengus' brother.
