What are your fall traditions? What do you want to make sure to do this season?

It's Saturday!! Any big plans this weekend? I plan to...

-swim with friends after work.
-find a new book to read. Any recommendations?
-Color our cutlery
-Make a check list for the wedding. I'm lost without lists and I keep forgetting the little details. I probably need to start doing something with the wedding. Still only have the location. It's 3 months away. I keep telling myself we're only doing a ceremony so settle down. Right? Right.
-Get my first sno-cone of the summer. I can't believe it's gone on this long. Completely uncalled for.
-simply relax

Have a lovely weekend!

work doesn't stop on the weekend

It's Friday! And to be honest, it feels like any other day. The weekdays bleed into my weekend, nothing different. Other than me saying, "This weekend I'm doing this!"
And this weekend I'm dedicated to filling up the shops that I sell with.
I've been busy making things but it has been for my shop. I've been really bad lately at balancing it all. Sooo, this weekend it's all about them.
Last night I started cutting out all the pieces and putting the small things together.


Here's Burl watching over the To Do List

And here is my view from my work space, watching CNN.


Thank you everyone for showing love to Burl! I'm so excited about him, and I'm glad you are too.
It's time to get back to work!
Have a lovely weekend!

I just want four walls and adobe slabs for my girls"

It's about time...

I'm finally getting to my To Do list!!


Don't you love To Do list? Me too.
Anyways, I had a little helper to keep me on track



Ollie made a pretty awesome helper. Biting my feet if I stood up to leave...ok, not really! Sweetest doggie around! I love him.

I've been making owl snugglies today for dwelling spaces, part of my to do list!
