Crazy Crafter

Yep, that's me. I know you don't believe it. But, it's very true. I'm obsessed (I'm sure that's believable)! It started by looking around online for Christmas gifts. Looking for something specific. And then I realized I could make everything I kept seeing. I didn't know what I was doing. I thought I'd just experiment. And then the ideas came flooding into my head. And then I crafted my first Christmas gift and was so pleased I couldn't...can't...stop.

Last Saturday morning I was at Hobby Lobby right when the doors opened. Two hours later, P-Dub met me at Hobby Lobby so we could do other shopping. He took one look at me and started laughing. Apparently I was sweaty and covered in glitter. In fact...he thinks it's hilarious that I've been covered in glitter ever since. Everything is covered in glitter.

After a few mishaps, I've become really good at this. I don't think I will ever stop. Maybe I'll end up opening my own business. Who knows! If anything, it's the first thing I've enjoyed doing in a long time!

P-Dub told me I also talked about crafting in my sleep. I can't tell if he still thinks it's funny or if he's getting annoyed. Everything I see I think about using for my new "craft".

Pictures to come...

Happy Freakin' New Year

Written January 1, 2021, when I tried to start a Wordpress blog , but failed because I'm old and it's too complicated. 2020 and I had a love/hate relationship. I hated seeing what was happening to others and the world. I dealt with my fair share of struggles, but mostly, I think I was the closest to contentment that I've ever been. 1. I LOVED working from home MOMO working from home 2. I felt closer to my family 3. I didn't mind the slower pace and less to do 4. I was able to have a better work/life balance 5. I felt more productive at home and at work 6. I did a couple of home projects - helped my parents landscape my front yard, gave my bedroom a makeover with my sister, and reorganized my pantry with her Before After Pantry Makeover Bedroom Makeover 7. I spent the best summer with my son and dogs at my sister'shouse - laughing, crying, painting rocks, getting to know my fur nieces and nephews (Wall-E, Maggie, Leeloo, and funny, little, Peyton who we lost in...

FYI

Just so you know...my computer is sitting here, on the floor, next to me...at my parent's house!!! Woo Hoo! I've taken the first step in getting it fixed...but alas, there it sits...I'm not the only slacker in the family! Also, I turn 30 in less than 20 days...

End of Summer

Who knew that at 28 years of age I would be writing a post about how I spent my summer. Don't people usually stop talking about their summers after a certain age? Say like, 22? It probably wouldn't be such a big deal to me if I wasn't still a student who doesn't haven't to have a "career" year round. Well, here it is . . . the end of summer. I go back to work on Monday, and school starts on Wednesday. My days of sleeping in, going out, etc are over. I still get every weekend off when Gabby goes to her dad's, but we'll still be a lot more "scheduled" around here. End of summers when I was younger always felt weird because you were sad about the summer being over, but a little excited about going back to school, shopping for school supplies and clothes, thinking about if there'd be a new cute guy in class, getting to see your friends everyday. I have a whole section in my memory that is filed under "Summer". It's my favori...
