The MacBuscke house is in mourning. Last week Benson, Maximus' father, suddenly passed away after a short illness. For those who follow this blog, you will be aware that Benson has played a big role in our lives, coming to stay frequently for doggy holidays & respite care. His gentle sunny disposition meant he fitted in seamlessly to the running of the house & the boys, Max, Dr. Phil & especially me, loved having him about. For those who are animal lovers, you will understand the almost irrational overwhelming sense of grief you feel at the loss of a pet. Madness really, I have been crying for days. Like children, pets, their innocence, just gets under your skin.
We'll miss you Benson.
Tyranno-Milo-Saurus progress to dateAs the Winter deepens here I have been making the most of the shorter days & have been cranking ou
t plenty of projects in the queue. After the success of the Steggie Milo, I have started another called Tyranno-Milo-saurus, a sort of 
prehistoric jungle inspired number which I have a small T-Rex motif to apply one completed. I have also had a couple of birthday presents completed & with James from J.O.Y coming to visit this weekend, I feel some socks coming on.

Suzanne's Ever After GauntletsIt has been a perfect project for me to do to help support New Zealand in the Ravelry World Cup - Go the All Whites!
Sorry about your dog's dad passing. Our pups help make our world, and it so so sad when they die.
