Alright, I plan to have a table at the local craft fair in October. There is another one locally over Memorial Day weekend, but the heat here is outrageous and there isn’t a lot of shade. The one in October is right on the river so it should have a nice breeze and we have…

Oz Escape
I found an advertisement for this virtual escape room/scavenger hunt. The Oz Escape sounded like a lot of fun. Walk around the city to predetermined stops to get information and solve riddles. 1 1/2 hours average time, 2.8K. Easy walk! So much fun!! I went to the site and found out that you get a…
Halloween Costume 2023
I got my outfit and accessories finished and didn’t have to do any really last minute things. I don’t consider the weekend before as last minute no matter what Rob says 🙂 I made the pearl necklace, the earrings, and the purse. I strung the pearl beads on crochet cotton and added an old-fashioned looking…
Back Quicker?
Well, I think I made it back sooner than usual 🙂 Hubby & I were talking about making a website for my crafted items. I could still sell/advertise on the sites like Etsy, but I could also redirect some of the traffic to my site. Or add a business card to the package of shipped…
Wellness Update
So the last few months have been challenging health-wise. I rarely get sick, I have been plagued by migraines most of my life, but I am used to them unless it is an outrageously bad one. I cannot get used to these ear issues. I seem to be getting infections. Last year I had my…
Baby Layettes
I am making baby layettes in 6 different colors. Baby blue, mint green, pale pink, yellow, lavender and white are going to be my starter group for sales. I’ve seen a few others that I think will be cute, but I don’t want to overextend myself and get frustrated because I can’t finish in a…
Etsy Update
We have found that the TOS for Etsy will not allow me to sell the ornaments there. They are shutting down stores that are selling copyrighted patterns, and things made based on copyrighted patterns. There are still a lot of stores that are selling patterns that are in books that I have bought in the…
Halloween 2023
I chose my costume last month, and decided on a 1950s housewife. I already had a dress, and thought this will be fun and fairly easy. I ordered shoes that are not exactly right for the costume, but will be wearable at another time. I made a pearl necklace, because it is an absolute must-have…
Muddy Dash 2023 After
Well, this was a no-go. My ride canceled. Everyone said I should have gotten Jonathan to come and get me. The problem with that is Jonathan lives halfway between my place and the run. I don’t feel right asking him to do that, especially at the last minute. I don’t know if I mentioned in…
October
Well, another month come and gone. It is now October and I have a few things going on. I have the Muddy Dash on Saturday, then next weekend is the Art Fair at work. That Sunday I also have a memorial service to go to. A friend of mine passed away in June and the…
