Being a Couch Potato

Well I got my foot surgery last Tuesday and I am having a hard time sitting on the couch. I hate watching TV and I can't do my crafts because the princess is lurking, just waiting to grab my supplies and run away with them. This picture was a few hours after surgery and my dear Sister was my nurse maid for the day. My eyes look watery because of the pain meds and I brought home a cold too...literally within a hour of getting home I got a runny nose and felt horrible....Ugh
While I have not been able to create anything this week, I was able to add a new category to my shop. It is Fabric..I have lots of Homespun Fabric. I have only listed one so far but please check back as I will be adding more this week: http://www.logcabincrafters.com/

So until next time I will ice and elevate!

Looking Good!

I am getting really excited for the move now...We snuck over on Saturday to check out the progress and we were very happy to see the roof on, the new garage door, the siding has been started and an extra nice surprise...recessed lighting on the porch! The back of the house will be getting a deck that leads to the concrete slab there. The other picture is our 2 plus acres of land...perfect for a pool, swing etc...
I also had to add a picture of my other baby..lol My Dogde Durgano...love it...best vehicle I have ever owned! Okay Okay enough of this personal stuff...I did manage to get some work done this weekend and here is a new shop goodie for you...The padded Butterfly:
Both of these Butterfly Hair Clippies will be added to Little Pags Boutique Shop by Monday. I am also working on an original Hair Clippie Design...if I can figure out how to make it out of ribbon it should be a hit. I think I will unveil it by Wednesday...Want to get it out there before my surgery on May 11th and I will be closing my Etsy Shop for that week to give myself time to rest...
As always Thanks for Reading,

Trying to Relax....

I am always going in 20 different directions. Always having a tug-o-war with myself between what I want to do and what I should do. And to make things worse I have about 20 projects that I need to actually finish.. So this weekend I tried to force myself to relax, stop and smell the roses as they say. So here is what I did: We road around our 7 acres on my son's 50, trying to teach my little Ava to steer
Then we decided to go to a local Lake and throw down a beach blanket and go fishing...but of course I HAD to bring my knitting, I just can't sit. We had so much fun, believe it or not we caught 23 fish in one hour...22 Bluegill and 1 Rock Fish...as soon as we cast the line out there was another fish on it..incredible!
We then got the call that they added the porch to our new home which is coming along beautifully!! YAY...I can't wait to move in... In fact I just purchased a beautiful bedroom set for my daughter!

Then back to my mind wandering and thinking about how I want to decorate the new place, which lead to the panic of wow I have to finish sanding and staining my bedroom dresser. I am staining it black and then priming it up by sanding the edges...Then to the new line of fabric jewelry I have to finish and load on the websites, then onto how much I need to complete before I have my surgery....it never ends...lol but I do wonder sometime if I will get everything done that I want to do before I die??? I sure hope so cuz my husband and kids would kill me if I leave all of that fabric and craft stuff laying around for them to clean up!!! Please check back by the end of the week, I should have some new original creations loaded.
Thanks for reading...Hugs
