Writing...and writing and waiting to create, Sigh!

I'm trying to sneek in some creative time in between work responsibilities.  It's funny - as I write (currently working on a grant for my work), I seem to wonder off into space and start dreaming about what I 've seen in everyone's blog lately or what I'd like to make next.  I have to slap myslef back into reality cause I am no where near done with work. 

I need to get out to Jo-Ann Fabric and Crafts to pick up the latest Stampington & Company issues of Artful Bloging, PRIMS, and Where Women Create.  This should pacify me for a while.

Oh!, by the way I am looking for a post I saw on someones blog of a half apron made from many pieces of fabric - I think it was a gift from someone.  It was so pretty and embellished.  Does anyone remember this post? Longshot huh?  I meant to write the blog name and post date so that I could go back to it but of course I forgot and now I need it.

On their way to becoming bracelets.


Putting on Etsy sometime this year...   ;)


This is what keeps getting in the way.


More pretties waiting their turn.


And this will stay like this until I dig myself out of my work - the one that gives me a paycheck.


More to post on Etsy.


Happy creating everyone!  I will enjoy the bits and pieces of time I can create and immerse myself in all things blingy and blessed.  Have a great one everyone!

TODAY IS MY 48th BIRTHDAY


Funny I don't feel 48.  What should a 48 year YOUNG feel like?  As far as I am concerned I feel the same, just a few aches here and there, LOL...

Here is a picture of me and four out of 12 of my nieces who are like my daughters...I don't have any of my own but I sure have them.  LOVE THEM TO PIECES!


This birthday cake was yummy!  


Have a great week everyone!
