You really got a hold on me

Okay... so I was just over @ Creative Greetings (Peggy's blog) where I saw that she was lamenting having nothing exciting to post, no funny work stories to share, etc. I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL!! It is Monday so I am off the workplace.... and it was an uneventful weekend for me. Uneventful means no snafus, no dog excapes, no dragons amiss, no deaths in the extended area, no fires to report.... it was a very RELAXING time. Friday we watched "Benny & Joon" for movie night @ Spirit Stone Sactuary. Saturday I put my card rack back up @ Bastrop Producers Market ( OH ! the things they have added in my absence!) . Sunday we went to a social gathering, got to play some Pictionary and hung out around a fire with good food & great people.

This card is made from plain CS, a strip cut with patterned scissors, some yarn ribbon stuff, a couple of stickers & glitter glue & a sentiment stamped in black. I made a couple dozen new cards last week to go on rack but still trying to show all the previously made cards.

So, weekend after next is my workshop... not freaking out yet but absolutely certain I will forget some key thing... typical fears... sigh.

Are you good at Pictionary? I love to play that game, my family hates playing with me!

Love the sparkly stickers!

Don't freak out! I taught a few crafty cards at Taste of USA at HLA....just have extras of everything, allow people to talk while you are explaining (cuz they will anyhow) I was happy to explain the entire project first and then go and individually help each person when they have that puzzled look on their face.

Violet

the song was by Courtney Love's band Hole... Violet... I have not idea why it is called violet unless it is just one of the random words from the opening lyrics... oh well! So, update... I currently have 143 cards for sale @ the Bastrop Producers Market... I know because I had to sticker them with my Vendor number yesterday... 27 of those are NEW ADDITIONS that I made yesterday before going out. Lots of fun!! A quiet week is planned... just a board meeting in N Austin at a coffee shop...how could I NOT go?! And Janee Ward's "Stepping Through the Doorway" creativity workshop @ Pine Crone Labyrinth Retreat this Saturday & Sunday. I am expecting "The Toy" to arrive Wednesday so I am pretty sure what I will be doing all of Thursday & Friday evenings :-) Stay tuned.................

The Trip That Wasn't

We were taking 32 days to go to Portland (via family and friends in Arkansas, Oklahoma, Portland, New Mexico & Texas) and back, seeing several state and national parks (including Great Basin, Crater Lake, Badlands, Mount Rushmore, Yosemite, Yellowstone, Wind Cave, and Palo Duro Canyon). On Day 1, a mere eleven miles south of the Arkansas state line, our truck broke down. We called Good Sam & they called Michael from A to Z Towing.  We spent most of 7/15 at Firestone. At 2:30pm they had a verdict, which was that the repairs were outside their scope of practice. We called Good Sam & they again called Michael from A to Z Towing, who towed us to the shop attached to the wrecker company, EZ Automotive. As the shop was closed until Monday, Michael called the owner. After explaining our dilemma permission was given to bring our camper as well as the truck. Michael set our camper down in the parking lot and ran an extension cord so we had power. We also had running water. Thankfull
