Goals???

                                                                   Goals


 So how has your new year been so far? Ours has been good. Have you kept up with your goals? 

You can read about my goals here in this post. We have been doing very well with some and maybe not with others.

We haven't eaten fast food at all!! YAY!!

I cant report if I have lost any weight yet I do not want to weigh myself until March. 

I haven't been blogging twice a week and I am working on that now!

Exercise well lets see that depends on how you look at it, do you count raking the yard? Cleaning a house moving for 3 straight hours? I have been doing these kinds of things, does that count?

 200 sales in my Etsy shop I am on my way I am currently at 133.

Four more houses to clean I am still working on this, and had some things come up that actually might work out better, I will tell you more about that later.

20 doll sales- I have been working very hard making and creating new dolls as soon as I finish them I will post pictures, one of them will be for sale.

Whats for dinner? We are having Tacos yum!

Vintage Patterns

So I have to keep this one short today on my way to take my son for an ultrasound. I want to share some recent patterns I have picked up from yard sales. Take a look..

I cant tell you how excited I get when I find these great old patterns in the bottom of a box of "junk" sewing things someone wants to get rid of. I have been posting them one at a time on my Etsy click here. These make me think of how sewing must have been in the 1940s or so the different fabrics, machines and women sewed a lot more often I think. What do you think?

Whats for dinner? We are having pasta with sausages.

Doll Speak

They are like the old song you hear on the radio that takes you back to those hot summer days when you've played hard all day, you can barely keep your eyes open to eat dinner and then you crawl into your nice cool sheets. Inside that bed is the soft friend with the crooked smile and button eyes who knows all your childhood secrets. You wrap you arm around your doll, telling her or him what you really think of brussel sprouts while drifting off to sleep.
That same doll sits on your bed everyday waiting for you to come home from school to hear about your day. You can love them, squeeze them, kiss them and in some cases pinch them if you must!

Your Voice, My Voice, The Voice

Interesting topic I think, what is your voice? How do you use it? What do you want to use it for? What do you want people to know or not know about you???
I definitely don't want my kids to remember my voice like that!
I want to inspire them, teach them how to be true to themselves. Which means learning to be true to myself, speaking my truth, living my passion. A very interesting thing to think about people.
Have a great day all!!
