Have A Good Day

I've nothing to report on the morning, but I can't just skip writing without a really good reason. So here I am saying hey everybody out there, have a good day. Enjoy the warming weather, unless you're on the flip side from me and then enjoy the cooling weather. Tie some knots in string, if that is your thing. I certainly hope that I have something better to share tomorrow, but I wouldn't hold my breath, everything around here seems to be in a permanent holding pattern, at least until schooling wraps at the end of next week. Until tomorrow then.

Weekend Recap

It was a busy weekend, but unfortunately not a lace-busy weekend. We hosted another family birthday, ran errands, and watched movies My shop has remained entirely too quiet. I seem to be going more than a week between sales of any kind of lace and you know how that affects my creativity. No? Badly, it affects it badly. I get that, why bother? mentality that's hard to break out of. Thankfully I'm well distracted by end of the school year nonsense, so it will be some time before I really start to get whiny about it. The real downside right now is that I have nothing to share or show you and that makes my blogging boring and fairly useless, so here's to something interesting happening soon, just so I don't bore people to death.

A Winner

It was another long day of schooling and not much else, except walking and reading. There was a lot of that as well. I'm crossing my fingers for a weekend surprise or bout of inspiration to get me back to my needle and thread.

In the meantime I did visit random.org this morning to chose a winner for my 1,000,000 page views giveaway and the winner is...Deana MacKenzie! Just message me on etsy to receive your credit code and instructions. 

Thanks again to everyone who commented and to all those silent readers out there as well. I'm glad that you can occasionally find something interesting in my ramblings. I hope to get back to a creative place soon, so I can stop being so bloody boring and give you something new to look at.

Habit

Well, nothing new and interesting, again. We're at that deadline point in the kids' school year. There are papers due and the oldest child is very skilled at procrastination. This means I get to sit with her and pester...er, I mean encourage her to keep writing until the papers are all done. The hardest part for me is to just not write them myself, because I actually enjoy writing, but I know better and I just sit there poking at her with questions until she finally gets moving. All that extra time schooling means much less time for me to worry about tatting, or knotting anything.

I'm going to wait until tomorrow morning to pick a winner for my 1,000,000 page view giveaway, so if you missed that post yesterday, head there and add a comment to enter. I'll do two winners if many more people comment. So far, it's too few to justify more than one. Thank you to everyone who has commented with congratulations so far. Truly, this is just a bad habit I got into and can't stop. I fear I will be writing here long after anyone stills cares, purely out of habit.

1,000,000

Well, my computer is behaving again thanks to the husband, unfortunately I have little to share againthis morning. I've been extremely focused on the year end nonsense for the kids schooling and the shop has done little to grab my attention away from that.

I do have one bit of blogging news to share. I just noticed this morning that I just reached 1,000,000 page views! That's just crazy, right? Of course that did take like 8 years.  I feel like I should do something to mark the occasion, but haven't a clue what. Okay, how about a quick giveaway. Just leave a comment on this blog post and I'll pick a winner or two on Friday to receive a $10 credit in my etsy shop. I know it's not much, but I'm making this up as I type.

So, thanks for popping by my blog for the last 8 years. Hopefully I'll get it together soon and have something new and interesting to show you.
