Jewelry on the Brain

So as most of you know, after months of agonizing I decided to take some time off from the career front. My last day was this past Friday. It was a really difficult decision, but one that I am glad to finally have made. It will be nice to get to spend more time with Ashley ~ although I'm sure there will be days when I question if I was sane when I made this decision.

Ashley and I had a great day on Monday. We watched the rain fall from our safe hidout at the front windows, we played upstairs in her playroom, ate lunch together, went for a walk, visited Gigi and GrandKen. It was a good day. Here is a picture from our day - Ash in camo and her favorite new shoes - pink moccasins.

I opened up an online shop to feature the jewlery I've started to design and make. I am a crafty girl at heart and am really excited about this ~ we'll see if I ever sell any of it :) You can check out my shop HERE or click on the pictures of my work in my sidebar.

One final note - I went to Costco today and was pleasantly surprised to see that they already had the Danish Shortbread Cookies out - you know the ones w/ the big sugar crystals on top - that they have around Christmas time? Well, I couldn't resist - so I picked up the unusually large tin and tossed it in the cart. Inside the tin they have the cookies arranged in groupings of three in little paper cupcake things. Anyways, I just realized that in one day I have eaten the contents of 6 cupcake things - so 18 cookies!!! AHHH! To the next person that comes over to my house - PLEASE remove the tin of cookies before I eat them all! Until next time...SMILE!
