CONGRATULATIONS!!

Thankyou

everyone!!

I can't tell you how much I appreciate you participating in my giveaway!

Your comments are a great inspiration for what I do...

& that inspiration keeps me ticking!

I've had some requests to add this sign to my shop which I hope to do in the next week or so, but first I must catch up on orders!

I've dabble a little with tweaking my website, I can almost call it done!

Finally pleased with the layout & look, check it out and let me know what you think.

happy first day of fall!!

One more day!

Tomorrow is the big day....if you haven't had a chance to enter my giveaway click on the button to the right and get your name in the proverbial hat!

We've had some absolutely gorgeous weather here the past few days. It has made for some great goings on in the yard...check out my son, look close...

see the monkey in the tree with the chainsaw? that's him!

{you look as worried as I was...he's actually trained for this so it made it a little easier to watch!}

Finally that weedy wild cherry tree is down! I've been asking for this for years. I have a vision for this little side yard...it looks something like this...

I have no idea when or how I'll get to creating this little vision but at least step one is complete...wild cherry gone, check!

Hope all of you are having a beautiful sun shiny day!

It's going to be a good day!

my yearly check up on my

What if....

If suddenly and without warning, Paula, you had absolutely nothing to worry about, do you know what the world would begin to look like?



Un-huh, exactly the same as it does right now.


Alright, if suddenly you had absolutely nothing to be afraid of, do you know what you'd begin to look like right now?



Yeah, cool as ever.




OK, OK. If suddenly you had absolutely no expectations to live up to and no one to disappoint, do you know how free you'd suddenly be?

Yeah, same, same.





Get it? The only thing that would really change is your thoughts. And you don't need circumstances or other people to help you with that, do you?

I say it's time to blow the lid off this popsicle stand -
