Paranormal State
August 4, 2008 | 
Author For whatever reason these two episodes of Paranormal State are really creeping me out tonight. I’m usually ok…a little freaked, but I’m almost physically scared with these two…not sure why. The 2nd one just began too…got another 20 minutes to go on it yet!
It also may be because there’s some dam fly flying all around my head and you you my house is overrun by cats and they are always active this time of night!!
I just hope this creepy feeling goes away when I go to bed or I will not be able to sleep!
I haven’t had time to make any scrappy pages, but I’ve downloaded tons and tons of freebies lately!! Digiscrapping artists are awesome for offering so many freebies!

Rawhide is the dried out raw hide of an animal. Rawhide chews are usually made from bulls, pigs, cows and sometimes horses. The hides are obtained from slaughterhouses, as they are a by-product, un-edible for humans. The hide is scraped of all meat, hair and fat. Originally, Native Americans used rawhide as a material in cabin and boat construction becauseSkinning a Pig of its extreme durability.

Rawhide can be dangerous. Be careful and if you chose to give it to your pooch(es) please don’t do so unsupervised.
