This Blog

Well I have kind of let this blog go along with everything else in my life as of late but I am slowly getting back on track. Once you lose a loved one it just seems like the everyday life "happenings" aren't as important. For example, we had company come over last night and normally I would have been cleaning until the moment they arrived.
Well not last night, I didn't clean! Why should I spend my Friday cleaning for visitors? If I were going to clean like that I should do it for the people that are here all the time :)!

Anyhow, I have recently closed my website until the beginning of the new year. I want to start off fresh with new beginnings and I have decided to focus on the most important things in my life for the Holidays, which are my family members!
I have several items I want to make for family members and they have always gotten put on the back burner this time of year. Not this year :)! I have started to make my daughter a Barbie dollhouse and I will try to post pictures with some of the progress :)!
It has been so much fun! My mother has been helping me with it and it seems like it is , in an odd way, helping us to heal!
We are not going out and buying a bunch of expensive furniture (I have bought a few wooden pieces but none of them have cost over $3.50). We have ideas to re-purpose items into lamps, living room furniture, and bedroom furniture! I have made a few of the lamps so far and we are having a blast!

Anyhow, I just wanted to give a quick update and I hope to do more updating on a regular basis!

Hugs!
