Great Day For Ice Cream!

I like my idea for the totem project.  It is going to be a dog collar that looks like a ring.  It's kind of my view on relationships and marriage right now haha.  I love my dog so much cause she's absolutely perfect and wouldn't it be nice if you could transform your dog into a human because I know we would get along so swell!  That's kind of weird, but oh well.  I worked with poplar wood today, but I found it to be too soft.  I'm a little nervous because the collar in my mind doesn't have too many intricate details, but it is quite small so I foresee some problems.  Towards the end of the day I switched to oak.  It is a harder material.  Hopefully it will be better for purposes. 

observation: in children's books, there are often small animals hidden in the pictures such as ladybugs and mice.  These animals have nothing to do with the story line. But today as I was reading stories to the children, they became very excited as they spotted the tiny ladybug on each page.  I doubt they were even paying attention to the story line.  Interesting how they get excited over the smallest things.
