It's been awhile since I've been over here! Life is life'n at my house lately. I am currently working on some plans and hopefully will be doing some videos and before and after photos in the near future. Wish me luck with this and pray I don't sound like cornbread on the videos and voice overs🤨🤣🤣🤣

One of my girls loves chickens, and cows, and goats, and you get the idea. She is an Elly May for sure. I was fiddling with a wash cloth the other day and sent her a pic of it. I asked was it a melted snowman, a cows head, or a chicken. If course she said chicken. I drew out some patterns and came up with some ideas on how I wanted it to look. It is definitely a raggedy hen, but I made some notes on what I need to do next time, so hopefully the next one will look not so raggedy. I'll add a photo of the finished product. She was happy with it so I'll call it a success.

So tomorrow, I guess I should say today, is a big day for a special little guy who holds a big spot in my heart. Not only is today his birthday, but, he is supposed to wear orange to school today.

He has a birthday t-shirt he wants to wear to school and it's blue. It has a little orange on it but it will be cold on the way to school. So I said I would make him some longer sleeves in orange to sew on his shirt. I cut the extension sleeves from an old tank top that is orange. I used the hem at the bottom of the tank to be the hem on his sleeves. Hand stitched the sleeves onto the shirt and it turned out pretty good if I may say so myself!

It's been a minute since I've posted anything here.
We have had a few weeks of illness in the family. We have had 2 down with croup. Finally getting back to normal with that and then we had the 4 month old vaccinations that have really made us sick. It's been a whirlwind of life for the month.
We can sure use some prayers!

Everyday at the school drop off***
Stop!
I'm not doing anything to you!
Granny, tell him to stop!
Stop bothering each other. Look out your window and no talking to or touching each other!
I wasn't doing anything!
Yes he was
No I didn't
Yes you did
BOYS! NO MORE TALKING!
😩 This will be repeated at the pick up each day and continue all the way home 😩

I love them with all my heart 💙💙

Wonder what this could be? Could be the start of a project. We shall see how this goes. Stay tuned ....

These kids 🤷. I told Tate to put his stuff up and start getting everything ready for school tomorrow. He has moved the whole living room around to make room for barns and tractors and rocks(yes! ROCKS)(if his papaw steps on one it's going to be interesting, to say the least🤣). I had to get a little loud and he turns to look at me and says in a very serious tone "will you give me a minute please! I need time for myself like you do Linda Jo!"

Sir, there will be no more warnings for you!!! I ain't playing!
It's so hard sometimes to be stern with him, because I want to laugh. It's not funny and we will have a long discussion before bedtime. 💙

SQUIRREL!!! I have 365,000 things to do. My mind is hard at work, but, my body is not cooperating at all. I have no gumption.
I think up all kinds of projects that i need to do (cleaning and purging this nasty house) and get pumped up to get them done. The problem is, I start cleaning or organizing in an area and end up with a huge mess because I bounce around to multiple things. I can't stay on target.
Do I start inside or outside, do I sew today or paint, do I need to organize and purge, do I rearrange furniture, where do I start. Windows and ceilings, closets and drawers? The struggle is a mountain I need to climb.
Winter is coming soon and I need to get this house in order. Will it ever be in order? Probably not, because here I set, griping about it instead of getting up and doing it!
Pray for me please.

I wanted to come on and say, first of all, thank you to Brittany Cox for helping me set this up. She was ready to pull her hair out. I'm not the best tech savvy person🤣. And I'm sure I'll be yelling at her a lot to ask questions for a little bit.

Second, I wanted to create a page where I can talk about life in general, do crafts, some cooking, and spread some laughs and happiness. I will also use this page to add some items for sale. These will be random things from household, crafts, clothes and whatever I can find to purge.
Thank you for being here, I appreciate you and God bless all your days ❤️
