love and another life

I am laying in bed mustering the energy to face the day. The sun is shining, the bird well if they hadn’t started flying south would be singing. it seems to be a perfect day BUT ( well you always know there is going to be the but, who are we kidding) I was up until 6 am.

I went to the doctor Monday. You know the one that is supposed to have all the answers for whats wrong. The one I put all my eggs in 1 basket  for, ready to accept what fate had dealt me , that I have RA.  SURPRISE… you don’t have RA you have 1 of the markers for RA but that is it not enough to diagnosis you with it. WHAT wait hold up back this train up ! Its not officially Lupus, and its really not RA. One doctor tells me RA  goes hand and hand with Lupus the other says no. I want this ride to stop now. Then…ahhhhh…. the clouds they parted and the angel spoke.  Have you been tested for Celiac’s diseas. I win ? She explained why and it all makes perfect sense !

Fate’s be damned today, I win. Research starts! I will feel better . I will not be sick. You will not win. I am embracing  life and this life is good.

Off to make soap I have been reeling since Monday. I know I can do this I just have to re-wire for my new perfectly normal 🙂 Besides haven’t I always said normal is boring!

Another Ebay Deal

S oaps on ebay still clearing out extra overstock of soap gearing up for the new season. Way less than wholesale price. Shipped normally the same day as payment is received:)

Loving this!

It’s Friday! Time for the Farmer’s Market, people watching and soap what a perfect combo. I have been a soap making fiend the past few weeks. Im so happy that something I love is  turning into a way I can help support my little family ( and it gives me 8 hours of time sorta, somewhat alone)

Don’t get me wrong I love my life, wouldn’t change a thing. HOWEVER having said that I do need  this downtime  of me doing my thing to decompress! I come home having missed the boys and ready to take on  the next week.I feel the need for a night out just the husband and I soon. I can always tell when its been to long . We both start getting snippy. Yep that’s were we are the past 2 weeks.  Maybe we should plan a night away completely just the 2 of us somewhere local but further away then  just going to the movies and  out to eat. Random thoughts I know, This post is being typed while planning exactly how Im going to load 120+ lbs of soap into a small Volvo :;) Great times I live .

Crazy Prices

bc_tc  on ebay  listing for a 1 time special less then wholesale pricing on overstock ( nothing wrong with them I just need to make room for new items!)  I wholesale bars of this size normally at $3  each and require a purchase of $150.  This is 2 bars short of a $150 order for $50 less!

Crafty Business

Its official Nov 4 I will do a craft event. This is a first for me.
Well no not really but the first that I’M in charge. I ran the craft circuit as a child, with my Nannie. I might find another to do before
then but who knows. My goal is to find 2 a month that are decent this year.I’m not sure I can pull that off but if I do it still allows me to spend time with my husband and 2 perfect boys ( I’m mom and I’m bias as it should be!)

 

Craft Fairs

 Not being native to this area I have found it rather overwhelming trying to hunt down all the little/big events for the  up coming year. Im building up the stock  so Im prepared but  the ones that do events like this tend to be tight lipped as spots are limited. I grew up in Arkansas and knew all the good spots here in PA eh, not so much.

the great disappearance

I know it has been months since I blogged anything at all. I’m trudging along with the soaps. We closed the esty store as we found a location we hope does better and even if it doesn’t it cannot do worse !
Ours soaps are now listed at http://bctcsoaps.storenvy.com, as of now I have 12 listed but I will be working on it all day. I should have the full line of 70+ up and for sale by Saturday.

Their coming to take me away…

I’m up to my eyeballs in new projects. I don’t know what I was thinking. Wait oh yes I do know , and they are scattered all over my bedroom ! Soap cubes, homemade laundry soaps, hand sized soap bars, sugar scrub cubes. I get these insane creative moments and the ADD kicks in. 17 million HALF finished ideas. Pictured to follow as you do NOT want to see the disaster in the making only the pretty old packaging when Im all done 😉
