Books, sunshine and crafts.

Good evening all,

I hope this blog finds you healthy and happy.  Today after home schooling I will be working on the final pictures for my book I'm going to be printing soon.  I can't wait!  Once they are perfect and colored I will scan the into my work and send it off. :)   I'm excited about this set of books.

The sunshine was a great revitalizer today. I think I over did it. lol  But, I did get the dishes done and the laundry done as well as the kids school work completed and two meals completed.  I'm proud of myself and I deserve a good rest.    It's always a good feeling when you get things done no matter how tired you may feel afterwards. 

I was going to video some crafts today but will have to post pone that until Friday because I had to make laundry soap.  I love the smell of fresh made laundry soap. :)  I want to work on some more mice which I will sell with my books and I want to finish up my Krampus even though he will be a bit out of season and I want to also work on two new items in my line of craft.  A line of  "Bless Your Heart." cards and "order and ship mini gift tins/presents"  I'll have to explain the gift one in a later post.

Well, supper is bubbling away on the stove and I need to finish up the laundry. So, I'll bid you good night and as always....

No Worries!

and

SKO!

Canoe Trips Remembered

Growing up in Ohio I was so lucky to have a dad that knew all the water ways. We always went conoeing on the Mad River.  I loved it.  There was a tractor pass that created a mini water fall that was safe for me to stay in the canoe and have my dad guide us over. I loved stopping along the way in little coves to look for rocks and shells.  One time we stopped at a bank that had holes in it.  I used one for a foot hold and heard a grunting noise.  It was then my dad suggested I move my foot unless I wanted a muskrat tearing my foot and leg apart. lol We passed near areas we couldn't get out due to the processing plant dumping "clean" water back into the river.  (still smelled. YUCK!)  In the spring it was dangerous due to the flooding.  I remember one time I wasn't allowed to go because I was so small.  But, one of the other parents in the group took their child.  He fell out of the canoe and got caught on a tree under the water. ...

   How are you all doing today.  We've been very busy.  We have been baking, schooling, crafting and idea crunching. :)  I've got the pattern for the small Krampus dolls complete and have started to cut and sew.  I'm finishing up next with our weather skeletons (akin to weather rocks) and should have them posted by the end of the week on our "for sale" page on Pinterest.  We even had a drawing give a way this week thanks to my lovely, talented daughter.  We hope to do this once a month so keep watching.  We will do different give a ways on different media so you'll have to check out all six.  Easter Egg Hunt!     I find this rather amusing that I've installed an assistant app on my phone but obviously haven't used it properly since I have failed to keep to any schedules.  Oh the life of a procrastinator, dreamer, mother, etc.  I really need a shock collar to keep me focused. LOL  Just kidding.  I do k...

Dealing with life.

I have found that we all handle situations differently.  Not really a surprise to me, but I have to constantly remind myself this.  I've also noticed that if you try and kill your self to keep total peace you will end up physically sick.  Strife has to happen.  Its talked about in all religions.  It's talked about in all cultures.  If you study, whenever a problem arises the people are faced with two ways of handling it.  Divide and crush the community or bind together and strengthen the community.  There are many sayings like, "the stronger you leave the tea bag in hot water the stronger the tea gets." and "when you put and egg and a potato in hot water the egg will get hard and the potato will get soft."  It's all in how you let the situation effect your life. Now there are times where you have to temporarily remove your self from the situation.  To ground yourself and either prepare for battle or prepare for peace.  Either wa...
