You know those shoes you've had for years, the ones that are super comfortable and that you keep telling yourself are still cute and in style but deep down you fear may cause one of your friends to submit you as a clueless fashion candidate to What Not to Wear? Those are the shoes that were taken from me, ripped away without any warning at all. Mike and I went to dinner the other night, came home to what looked like a normal scene, and then Mike went upstairs and called me up by my given name (which he never does - sometimes I forget my name isn't Sweetie). And there it was - my super-comfortable-and-surely-still-in-fashion shoe, in an inconsiderately chewed up heap on the floor. Sometimes our choices are taken away from us, be it a good thing or bad. In this particular instance it makes me sad, but it's probably for the best.
I know it was Ivy. She seems to have developed a minor case of separation anxiety. Either that or we're not feeding her enough. Yesterday I came home to this:
My new purple beeswax candles from
Bella Vita (lovely shop, by the way). Not a single piece of wax was left, just the wrapper and the black tissue paper that Michele had so lovingly wrapped them in. So I am guessing that Ivy has about 2 feet of candle wick working its way through her system. Sounds super fun doesn't it?
Good times ahead.
Well. I have to say that I did find the shoe story a bit amusing (sorry, Em!), but the purple beeswax candles from Bella Vita? Oh, Ivy, how could you?! Hope everything comes out alright : (
ReplyDeletePS Apparently I've been demoted to "Anon" again here in Blogsville. Poo.
Yikes! Have things "come out" okay? ;-)
ReplyDeleteYes, everything has come out all right in the end. : ) Seriously though, 2 feet of candle wick.
ReplyDeleteRosie would have eaten all the evidence, black paper and wrapper and all. It would only be as I was thinking; "I am sure I had a candle in black paper somewhere.." that I might even be aware it was eaten. I have misplaced a few things this way.
