I have achieved pictures!

so, this is what i've been up to... polish on the toes!

Decorating ornaments...

Stickers from Dollarama are awesome sauce. As you can tell, I've used the blue ones. I'm not sure what I'll use the silver ones for yet.

today..

the to do list:

jobsearch
dishes
fill flour bin
ironing
fix shoes
mix bread

not much in the way of crafty goodness today, but frugality abounds. I also have to run out and pick up groceries... i've been having a craving for home made baked beans.. YUM!

It's raining out...

..and very soon it will be snowing instead of raining. That makes me a little excited.. I get excited about the cold weather for about a month, then I want spring again.

I haven't made anything today, except food.. I made a lemon chess pie today. It's in the oven, so it will be ready for breakfast. I don't have pics of it up because i'm not used to having a camera.. I have to start remembering to take pics.

I did, however, spend some time drooling over pics of craft projects online for most of today. That's something, isn't it?

Hello!

Yes, it's been a while. Life happens. Now I have time again.

Haven't been 'making' much recently, but I have been cooking a lot, and mending.. oh the mending NEVER ends! Especially with the Boy working contractor type jobs! (no, this is not the same boy from before. He wasn't worth my time!).

Things I have done this year: Canning for the first time, hunting for food, tried making root beer (it didn't work out, but i'm optimistic enough to try again), foraging, four wheeling, putting my frugal learnings into practice... I lost my job in February, and I haven't been able to find one since. I won't say it's been easy, but the Boy has been so awesome about helping me out when i'm stuck, it's been easier than I had thought it would be.

Today, I put the finishing touches on his 'deer wand', and hopefully get some ironing done.

I'll update more tomorrow.
