I've been away far too long!

It's been so long since I've posted! We've passed two seasons, Spring and Summer and are quickly approaching Fall which is my favorite time of year. Fall has a cozy feel to me. It's a time that I want my home to look it's best and reflect the season. I want to bake more. I want to enjoy the crisp fall days.

I went back to work in May....mostly out of necessity! I want to pay off our debt and there is no other way to do it. My husband was laid off several times over last winter and that had a snowball effect that we are still dealing with but things are getting better! I have enjoyed being back with my co-workers at work. I missed some of them a lot while I was off.

It seems that I was not as motivated as I should have been with all the time I had off of work. Suffice it to say it was a nice vacation. I thought I would spend more time on my etsy shops and get so much done but I didn't. I'm trying to jump on the social networking bandwagon so please like my Facebook Fan page. The link is on the top right of this page. Thanks in advance! I will post sales and deals there. I hope to make the content interesting enough that someone will actually want to read it...lol.

I spent most of my summer at home due to the money issues we've had but I did get a chance to see the California Redwoods, go to the beach and visit the beautiful city of Portland several times. It was a relaxing summer spent with family and friends. I will try to keep up on this blog from now on. I do enjoy writing here!
