I have not been on here much (about all I seem to have time to do is check mail).

Diane, I have your new number and will call you soon. We need to catch up! I miss you!

Tam, I hope your recovery is going well and in time, you will feel better than ever!

Cindy, keep your spirit strong and everything else will follow.

The past 5 weeks have been a whirl wind for me. Snip n Tip's last clinic for the summer was the end of april, so that is over for awhile. I did a renn. faire in cookeville, still sub-teaching at the high school, (I have been getting calls alot......YAY). Still helping mom in the barn 1-2x a week, and now I am working at the bakery that I first started in 10 years ago. I have been going fri. morning to madison (it is about 95 miles one way), work all day fri. then stay at the hotel where my husband works on fri nite, then work all day sat. Then drive home sat nite. I was wondering if there business has been less since a walmart opened up right down the street, but NO!!!!!!!!!!!! They are busier then ever.......they have around 150 to 200 cake orders on for fri and sat plus this was the second week in a row that there was 10 wedding cakes both weekends! WHEW! It has about killed me since I have not done this in almost a year. My left hand is sosooooo swollen by sun mornings, I just want to cry. BUT, it is worth it. They pay me VERY WELL. I will try to do this over the summer while there is no school.

So that is about it, just wanted to let you know I have been busy, but have not forgotten any of my family here. I miss you all!

We were given two hands to hold, two eyes to see, two ears to listen & two legs to walk. But why were we given only one heart?
The other heart was given to another for us to find.

Wendy - it is WONDERFUL to see you popping in to update us on your very busy life of late. I'm glad you are keeping busy with positive things, and hope things continue to go well for you.

How did it go at the Renn. Faire? Did you sell any of your terrific things?

Well, just popped in to say hi to everyone! Diane...............still going to call you, it just seems like I am only home to sleep lately! I MISS YOU!

I really miss being here, today I am home and sick as a dog with allergies or a cold or something! YUCK! I hope everyone is ok, since I can't check in much, I will keep this going to say that I think of everyone all the time. How is Cindy doing? Glad to here that Tam is recovering well. I am going to bed and hope my nose and eyes clear up before tomorrow!

My love to you all!

Oh yeah...........no...........I did not sell anything AGAIN at the renn faire! The other craft show is in another town on July 4 & 5, it has an attendence of 130,000 and this is their 43rd year of doing it............so surely I will have luck there! I am not giving up, and thank you all for asking! Keep your fingers crossed for the next one!

Thanks! I took my biggest piece to the bakery to try to sell it there. I want to pull in a few more things to make it look like a scene, just have not had time yet. The front girls said that people have been curious about it and some of my cards are gone. One woman was looking at it saying her daugther would love that as a centerpiece at her wedding..............mmmmmmmmmm, yes it would!

Going to lay back down, I went to bed at 10 but have been tossing and turning, so I will try it again!

It has been so long since I looked at my PB, I forgot what is there! Yes, the fairy's grotto is electric, it is not my biggest one, the enchanted dreams was the biggest and I sold that in April. I made another one which I listed on my etsy, but still have not got a picture of it and now it is at the bakery waiting to be bought (I hope). I really have to get busy making stuff for July. I am not going to make any more scenes besides the ones I have. I am going to do just some fairy furniture, some end tables, and fairy jewelry. I have soooo many plans but just have not had the time yet! I still have a cold and my allergies are driving me crazy! I worked in the barn with mom yesterday and now I am worse......that is why I am posting at such a wierd hour..........my nose woke me up! Going to lay back down and hope it is better in a liitle while.
