I know I have been Bad!

My Dear Blog,

It was not my intention to neglect you and my friends but life is not slowing down any and I have been running my self ragged the last 10 days.  I know, I know, that is no excuse!  I could at least take a few moments to share my thoughts, my days activities, my dreams, my tears, but it has been sooo hectic.  Please forgive me, I will try to do better.

What has happened to all of us anyway?  There used to be time in the day to take a break, have some tea and cookies perhaps, share a thought or two with a friend, call a relative we haven't spoken with in a while.  It is just plain crazy nowadays.  I feel like I am running, from the time my feet hit the floor in the morning until it is time to rest my weary head on my bed pillow at night.  All day, The Phones are ringing, door bell is ringing, laundry needs to be done, dinner planned, shopping, and oh, don't forget those bills that need to be paid.  Cell phones, Computers, Fax Machines, UPS Deliveries, I am ready to scream.

I will try to reflect back on the last 10 days that I have so thoughtlessly avoided you and see what I remember as a fun, interesting tidbit that may have happened along the way in my crazy, high speed life.  I am sure there was a laugh or two, a touching story, a few tears, (maybe I will be willing to share), I will do my best to try and think of something.  If not, well, please give me a little, minute, tiny bit of a pat on the back for checking in tonight. 

I am exhausted, just fried, and need to mellow out a bit before it is time for the sun to shine again and the madness starts all over.

Have a wonderful night, sleep tight, and I wish you beautiful Dreams!

What Happened to Life Slowing Down after 50?

OK, This has been a MOST challenging Week so far and it's ONLY Wednesday!!  JEEZ

So I have adopted the attitude,  it didn't happen until later this afternoon, but;  "Let's get all the Crap outta the way and move on to better, more positive things."   It has been a very busy time for us...Not all money making which is the frustrating part.  Just keeping up with all of life's responsibilities and unforeseen changes; that happen almost daily!

I have been trying to weed out the "dead weight" in my Twitter accounts.  I Managed to purge one account today, one more to go.  I found out that I had 779 people as "dead weight" that were not following me back.  Well, that is not good because it throws your ratios off and will effect your ranking on google search;  learn something everyday..Guess it helps to have a husband who teaches this stuff.

I have also been trying to rearrange my stores, get them more organized and specialized. Preparing for the Holidays, can you believe that!  But, if you think about it they ARE right around the corner.

I am offering a 30% off sale in my Fabric Store on Etsy.  Awesome, Beautiful Fabrics.  Mostly Upholstery Fabrics, but they are perfect for all sorts of projects such as; Aprons, Handbags, Coin Purses, Jackets and of course all kinds of Home Decor.  Some of them are light enough in weight to actually make clothing.  I also have some VINTAGE fabrics that I listed recently (still have not listed the whole lot) and a variety of 44/45" quilt/dress Fabrics.  I need to sell my inventory because we will be relocating and I DO NOT want to MOVE these Pretties.

Just wanted to check in--I feel bad for neglecting my Blog.  WELCOME to my Followers, it is much easier to post when you know that SOMEONE is actually paying attention.  It was hard talking to myself there for awhile, LOL.

Have a Wonderful evening!

My List is getting Longer!

I just wanted to post a quick "Hello" to my Friends!  So, glad you are followers of my Blog. :0)

My day has run out of time and my list of "Things To Do" has actually gotten longer instead of shorter.  I have been a little side tracked my my "List" and now I have to make another list to keep moving on and be sure that I get it all done. 

So, since I do not have much time, I just wanted to leave you with a thought and a pretty photo of the last of our Blooming Roses for the season.  BUT oh, how great the fragrance...I just can't get enough!
