The poor babies! I fell your pain. It's not like they can tell why they got sick or how they feel.

Kind of a surprise to see "Blocking Lace" as the title of your post on my RSS feed, then open up not to a shawl but to the pups. It's good of you to keep us alert.

I hope the dogs are on the mend and everyone sleeps well tonight. I'm with the weave in and leave long ends crowd.

It sounds like it was a rough night for everybody!...

Gus, gus, gus, what did you eat?
I hope his tummyache is better soon.
I KNOW exactly all about the snoring thing. Cinnamon (our boxer) can snore like a buzz saw.
Ya just gotta love those smooshy faces, though.

Sorry to hear about your babies! I Waslast night just a wee skirmish? Interesting about not weaving before you block. I always weave my ends in but leave a sizable end so I can see where it will take hold before I do my final trimming - Assuming I complete my final trimming... Unlike the pair of Birthday socks I sent out which, by the way, I heard word that they were officially not trimmed. Great! :) I hope you're able to get a nap in there!

Sorry you didn't sleep. I slept pretty goo, about 6 hours, but I swear I dreamed about your dogs? What's up with that?

OOps- sorry about that- Bear got to the computer before I did (heh heh, what imaginary lives we weave for our pets!!!)We got Bear back from the groomers, and apparently, she thinks the Bear has allergies that are affecting his ears (he gets very waxy ucky ears in the summer, and scratches them a fair bit)So we will have them looked at.How are you feeling these days?
PS- Totally agree with your position on advertising emails, by the way.

Oh oh, Big GUssy sick? And Abby, why you scratch those purty ears. I think you needs to have a big poodle come and straighten you guys out. You let your moimma sleep tonight, okay?

I weave in the ends before blocking lace, but don't cut the thread until after blocking. Not sure why, but it seems to work.

Hope the big babies are feeling better tonight. And you get some sleep. Are you totally over your "sick"?

I'm the same as you. I can sleep through pretty much anything (thunderstorms, a burglar breaking into the house, sirens) but if a cat starts making "that noise", I'm awake in a flash and dragging the offending animal into the bathroom. Then it takes me forever to go back to sleep.

I hope the dogs behave and you get some good sleep tonite.

That's interesting about the weaving in ends and blocking lace. Never thought to do it that way, but it totally makes sense!
