Hi Friends ♥♥♥

Hi everyone,

Yes, I am still here.  It has been a grueling 2 months and it's not over yet!

We have been in the process of moving to a GREAT location; Dana Point, California, within walking distance to the beach and the weather is so Awesome here!!! 

We moved from the High Desert of California, approximately 100 miles away so distance wise it was not a long move but if you have ever moved all of your household before you know what I'm going thru - "H.E.L.L." 

It doesn't matter if you just moved next door when it comes to moving your "STUFF", it is exhausting, stressful, and basically one of the most overwhelming things you can do.  We have not moved for 10 years so we have  accumulated quite a bit of "STUFF", which during this move I discovered just what items of "STUFF" held their undying importance to me from over the years. 

We downsized,  so fitting everything into a space half the size that we moved from has been a most incredible feat!  Even though I had 3 garage sales, listings on Craig's List, Gave away a lot of "STUFF" What was left over still did not fit into one 26ft U-Haul Moving truck!  AMAZING!  So during this overwhelming, exhausting move I did entertain 4 different melt downs.  I truly thought I could not get thru this another day, but with the love and support of family and friends we managed to do it.  So, two trips with 2  different U-Haul trucks, we are now close to being 100% settled.

The garage is filled with boxes of things we just could not let go.  Items that I need for my online stores as well as my husband's treasures he could not part with, we will work thru all of that soon.  I just have my studio to completely set up and then I am done and will be able to walk about the house with a big sigh of relief.

Thank you for sticking with me, I have missed my stores, (still in vacation mode) on etsy, artfire, ecrater, zibbet, etc.  But I shall be up and running soon.  My Etsy Shop " The Queen's Royal Coach" is open for business,  however, I do need to get busy on my Fall Line of Jewelry, which needless to say, I am so far behind!

Have a great day everyone!!  I will do my best to get back on track and make regular postings, I am so excited to be living here at the beach,  I have this new surge of energy and I am ready to get things in order and back on schedule.

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!

JUNE was a Whirlwind Month!

Dr. Shawn Mollenhauer

OK, Summer is clearly in full force and lots of things going on.  June was a special month for our family.  Our son, Shawn graduated from UC RIVERSIDE and received his doctorate in musicology.  He currently teaches at the University in Denver and will be adding to his employment record with other job offerings I am sure!  Yay, CONGRATULATIONS Shawn, or I should say, Congratulations Dr. Mollenhauer!  We are so proud of you, it has been a long and arduous road, but you made it and you did it on your own! 

My husband Michael conducted seminars this month, which I help him with, however he is the expert and he does the speaking I am just the cheerleader and help with set up and book orders.

Racing with our grandson Cole Cabrera.  We love going to his races.  He is so awesome, so talented. We are looking for sponsors for this up and coming NASCAR racer.  He really is Great, take a look at his accomplishments, read his web page and Call us!

Then there is just everyday life.  But, I was able to finish a couple of pieces of jewelry and I will post them for all to see.

AND then--of course, there is the Casey Anthony Trial!  OMG, I have been consumed with it!   If you have not followed this trial you have seriously missed out on the most incredible story told.  You can't make this up!  Better than any book or movie out there!  So, so tragic that it is a true life event.  It is so incredibly unbelievable!  In fact, as I sit here updating my blog I am listening to closing statements.  I wonder just how long it will take the jury in deliberations?

HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND ♥♥♥

Just a touch of Humor for a FRIDAY

So Sorry! Really!!! ♥♥♥

I have been so neglectful! Not that I haven't thought about you, just consumed with life and trying to stay one step ahead of all  the madness.  I can see that no matter how hard I try...It is IMPOSSIBLE to stay ahead of most things, "Life Just Happens" and you have to be flexible and go along with it and try to smile along the way!

Please forgive me.
