Long time, no blog!

 Wow. Does time fly or what?

Last time I blogged, we were calming down from the crazy flooding in our area and our destroyed basement. After the massive cleanup, we were able to switch our focus to finishing up replacing parts of our deck. Summer comes fast, and we wanted the deck finished before we opened the pool for the season. We were able to complete one massive section, before we would need to move grills and tackle the lower part. 

But SURPRISE! Illness came and got my husband first, then me. We were out for the count for about ten days. As we started feeling stronger, we got back to the gym, and in our normal routine. 

Weeks later, illness hit again, and this time it was my husband and a bout of pneumonia. What a wild ride that was. It didn’t help that we have had a ridiculously wet spring, which really slowed his recovery.  Thankfully, he made it through! (I did too!)

After all the ickies, we got back to the gym again, and back in our routine. We finished the bottom part of our deck, and now our pool is open. We celebrated my 45th birthday as well as our 20th wedding anniversary in Nashville! A week after that we took another small day trip….more on that later! 

Have I been sewing? Unfortunately, no. In fact, I hadn’t been up to my craft room in more weeks than I would like to admit. I missed it so much! I ventured upstairs a few days ago, refreshed my memory on what I had been working on before LIFE happened, and started cleaning up and organizing. 

Now, I’m sure everyone can agree that your craft room can get messy FAST! But my space is also where I pay bills, store memories, run my small Etsy shop, and is also our gift wrap room. I’ve been working hard on organizing each corner of my space over the years, and I am slowly getting there! I have too many interests and hobbies it seems. I think my biggest problem is the mail. After paying bills and figuring out what is junk and what isn’t, it just seems like there’s piles on piles on piles. My shredder gets a workout, that’s for sure!

 I’m hoping that sometime this fall or winter I can share my space with you. I’d love to do a photo tour of my room, once everything is in place. I’d even consider doing a video tour, if I could figure it out! Fingers crossed I can keep making progress and make this happen. My husband has definitely spoiled me with this room over our garage, and I’m so grateful to have it! 

Anyways, I just wanted to check in. I’m still here, and still blogging. I will be posting much more this summer, and I’m looking forward to it! I hope summer is good to you, and you’re making good memories! 

Stay tuned for a post about a recent day trip we took, and a Fat Quarter Shop haul! 

Thanks for reading!
