Oh Happy Day!

Don't faint! I am actually blogging again today.  Just wanted to make mention of something, especially since I posted what I did yesterday. Shortly after I had entered that post, I had a talk with someone who encouraged me to stay in my shop until the end of the year, and actually made it possible for me to do so. One of the main reasons I have felt the need to leave the shop was the financial strain it has been to keep a place and utilities, yet had not been able to spend the proper time to be productive to create the funds to merit having it. However, God knew my heart was devestated at the thought of having to depart right here at the beginning of the best season for my goodies.  So now, with this made possible for me to at least remain until the end of the year, we will know by then what our future plans will be concerning keeping it or letting it go. I just want to be happy. My heart feels blessed today, and since my sweet momma is here for a few days, we are going to be working in the shop today getting some more things organized and in order, and my hopes are that by next week, I will be able to start production and sales, which will be mainly by taking orders, but there are a few new ideas in mind that might be put into action, too. We shall see. All I know is that I am very happy with this opportunity and plan to make the very best of it. If this body will just keep up, it will be great. :)

My Favorite Season

I love this time of year. The leaves start turning gorgeous colors, and the atmosphere just seems to come alive with magical feelings. When the air is crisp and the breeze is calm, and you just long to be out among the awesomess of all of the Autumn goodness. Seems that this season will bring some changes about for my life, that I did not intend, but must go forward with. Because of health issues that are beyond my control, I will not be able to continue with my plans and dreams of having a shop. I will not allow myself to feel defeated, but I cannot help but feel the stings of dissapointment and sadness as I come to a close in this chapter of my life. However, I will still do everything I feel up to doing in ways of crafting, baking and candy making to help with our income the best I can at this time. I must focus on getting healthier, and do everything I can to be less stressed. I want to be able to enjoy every blessed moment of this glorious season that is upon us, and to make memories with my girls that they will place in their hearts for safe keeping. Maybe  I will actually be able to devote the proper time and effort into having a blog.  Happy Fall, Y'all!
