Rainy Monday, time to brag....

It's a yucky, rainy day here in Kansas.
Thinkin' Chili's what's for dinner....Don'tcha just love crock pots!
I'd like to share a few wonderful
things going on for me.
I don't like to toot my own horn, but this time I just can't help it.
This is what I've been wanting to happen & just didn't
know how to get things started.
A couple weeks ago, I was asked to show my cards & a bag
that I made a month ago for myself, to a friend of a friend.
Ya know how that goes...
Well, lucky for me, she loved my stuff & asked me to display
my cards and what "k"nots in her shop.
Could I have things ready for the grand opening...on Mother's Day evening?
I accepted the challenge....but...
not nearly enough cards made.
Needless to say, I got busy real quick.
I made mini card packs, flour sack bags, cards and more cards.
I also decided to make glass magnets.
I've made them in the past for family, so.....why not!


Opening night turned out to be very successful & exciting!
I've also been asked to make tote bags along with a few cards for another shop.
I'm looking so forward to sharing this journey ....Thanks!

where has the time gone....








I kept telling myself...I'll post on my blog later. What do ya know, a whole week has pasted by.



It's just been beautiful out therefore I've been taking advantage of it while I can. Before long it will be so blasted hot, I won't want to be outside. I've done some yard work, painted on some projects, and organizing stuff in the garage (a never ending process). I'm trying to get the garage ready for future treasures that I'm hoping to find....getting my hoarding skills back in order...
Oh & working some too.
I'll admit, I've also been just sitting outside enjoying the newness of spring....
reflecting a little & looking forward to some new beginnings...new opportunities.
My hubby will have 30 years in next spring. We're looking into relocating.
This summer we have several areas that we will be checking out....
around Rogers, Arkansas & around Waterville, Kansas.
Who knows where we are going to end up!
The whole process is going to be exciting and a bit scary.
So, that's where the time has gone...me having fun & thinking too much.

Finally Friday...

What a fabulous Friday this has been, even with the rain.
A few estate sale finds from the sale I worked at... loving the typewriter...

Of coarse, I'll be keeping a few of these beauties...
My Greyhound(Whippet) domino pendant that I purchased
from robomargo.com/store.
Thank you Margo for your beautiful work!
(having picture difficulties again...sorry!)


And finally my very first giveaway winnings from the Eggstra Fun Egg Swap.
Thank you Shara.
Now I want to be a part of a swap!!!
I'm also looking forward to my stepdaughter's coming home for the weekend. We're having dinner together this evening, then she'll be spending Easter with her mother's family.
Tomorrow the hubby & I have a few errands, then Sunday
we'll be going to see his brothers, sisters, and mother.
Wishing all a joyous Easter & a wonderful weekend!
