Hello friends and family who still check in on me/us through this blog! It has been dawning on me for the past couple months that my blog feels like more of a hindrance than what I initially intended it to be--a creative outlet and a way of connecting and sharing. Pretty much at least since Christmas it has been more of a chore than anything--trying to think up worthwhile things to post. Ever since I took that one college class back in the Fall I all but stopped sewing and crafting. Then we inherited that trailer full of stuff, which is nearly a full time job listing and selling it all online. Caleb stays here during the school week so that really takes up a good part of my time. Anyway, the only thing constant is change, and things have changed enough for me and for now that it really makes no sense to have this blog. You know I hate doing anything half-a$$ed and that's what this blog has been for a good long while.
My biggest concern about closing it down is wondering if people can still access the Roman Blind tutorial I put up almost three years ago. That post still gets comments and over a hundred hits a day. I'll think positive and hope that it doesn't disappear.
Maybe now I'll start being more active on Facebook. Up until now I've managed my friends list like Elaine on Seinfeld managed her inventory of discontinued contraceptive sponges. I literally haven't even accepted my mom's friend request til today, thinking "what more could we possibly share that we don't already on typepad, emails and the phone?" :-) So if you want to stay in touch and you're on Facebook, look me up!
Have a great Summer.
Til we meet again.
