This week happened to be the sale that I always wait for.  Simplicity patterns for 99 cents each.  These patterns are usually $15.95 and up.  So when the sale comes around I make sure to add to my pattern collection.  

This time I had a few patterns in mind that I wanted to get.  I realized that I don't have any dress clothes that fit and I'll need some for the show's production.  I ended up finding a really cute top pattern and some beautiful plum-colored material. 

Of course, bozley couldn't handle not having all of mama's attention so I picked him up and set him on my table.  He loves to get up there and help me with whatever project I happen to be working on. 

ok ... so he thinks he's helping.  But really, I think I spend more time moving him than I do actually working.  But how can you not love that face!?  

And he was so good to stay right there, even when I walked away to check on the laundry.  He didn't offer to jump off, like he usually does.  And he posed for me for several different pictures without my prompting.  He is definitely the smartest dog I know.  It's like there's a little human soul peering out from those eyes.  All he needs is to learn how to talk!

Thank you for enduring my Bozley stories ...   I hope everyone stays warm out there.  Be sure to bundle up and watch that nose for frostbite!  'Til next time...
