November Check-In

#1) Participating in my art group's "Birthday Club" and send a handmade item to each MET
#2) 2019's weekly scrapbook layout challenge over at the Scraptacular Cropping Club missed 10/16 & 10/23 challenges... life and work. 10/30 still on my plate.
#3) Monthly lottery challenge in my ATC Art Group on IO Groups. Did not participate in the October lottery due to vacation.
#4) Follow my budget and pay off my ALL debt by this year's end. This is not going to happen as I just got hit with a $700+ car repair bill. UGH. But I am continuing to follow my plan and avoid getting farther behind on medical bills and such.

What have I done? Uploaded all the photos from the Big Vacation :-) and ordered prints for my scrapbook. Also uploaded Days 146-191 of my CCJ365 Project. Feeling pretty good about that! And we hosted a lovely Samhain Circle. Today I finished setting up my 2020 Big Happy Planner and added my budget and bill pay pages, Birthday Master List and sabbat days. Now off to bed. Isi it sad that I have been looking forward to the time change all week?

Blessed Be

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
