Keeping Up.....

During the last few weeks that I have been absent, I have started to write posts several times. "Started" being the key word then I would get side tracked and would completely forget until I had closed everything for the night. Now I just want to let you know that I haven't forgotten about my blog. I intend to start posting again regularly and have been working hard to wean myself off of the internet except to post things and blog. It is funny though how a few emails can suck you right back into it and, again another hour has slipped away.....arrrgh!!

I had a Birthday pass. I'm now 44 (eeek!) not a bad thing. Let's see if I can remember how old I am for the rest of the year. You know that for woman, they (whoever they are) are saying that the 40's and 50's are the new 20's and 30's. Hmmm, I'll have to think some more on that one!

I've finished a few projects, I know you've heard it before.....but......I..........promise to post photos.....SOON!!!

I NEED to start listing again and have found some vintage clothes that will probably go into "YourCreativeSide" Etsy. The only bummer is I don't have anyone to model them since my boys don't really enjoy putting on woman's clothing but I'll do the best I can to show them in a good light.

I've been crocheting flowers like crazy and actually found a bag of a bunch that I made a couple of years ago. Forgot all about them but they will work wonderfully for jewelry and embellishments. It also made me realize just how much I love colors! Bright mixes of it! I have a few bags of embroidery thread and pearl cotton and it makes me feel good just to look at the mix of colors.

I'm still working on clearing things out and make a little more progress everyday! Yeah! I still have some left over filing to do in order to free up my jewelry area plus I've needed to move my photographing station. It takes a bit of space because I use a lampshade to help with the lighting. It works wonderfully but I ended up having to find a new shade because Jimmy couldn't stand the smell of the one I was using. Something about the plastic. The new space has to accommodate both the shade and the light that goes over it and I want it to be on my desk for easy access when I'm working online. The mess on my desk is "mostly" gone but there are still a few things "hanging" around that need to be put, thrown or just recycled away. I think I'll start on that now.

More later!
