Where is she?

     It's been a while hasn't it interweb world? The title of this post is what lots of people are asking when they discover I'm not home all day any more. As per usual things changed drastically and I had no time to keep this blog and inform people what I am up to( I mean if there are any people out there reading)! What changed? I, boss girl that I am, went back to work! Yup that's right. You heard me. I am working after many moons of being a stay at home chic this babe is working. 

     I must say I love it! Every hard, physical moment of it. It's amazing. What am I doing that is so amazing? I'm a personal shopper. I know it doesn't seem like much to most but for me it was a perfect fit! It has done so many things for me and my attitued, self esteem, SIZE!. ( lost 20 lbs!)

     Working has also made me think about why I have stopped doing so many things I love. Write, candle rituals, taking time to work out, reading. I think I had lost myself for awhile.Fading, and folding into my most inner darkness because I had nothing that was just for me. 

     I have always had a purpose staying home being a mom and wife.I regret NONE of it. It was amazing being home with those little humans on loan.Teaching them to walk, talk, read, learn, love...but...children grow as is the way of life and then there is only so much you can clean or craft before you start feeling mundane and of less use. Now don't get me wrong. Mom's are always needed. Just not in the same way. The role changes. I've discovered that it's not a bad thing but almost a freeing thing. I am sure that I will have bumps and hiccups in my continuously changing journey but I am looking forward to whatever it brings. 

     To all the moms out there thanks for coming into my realm and remember...take care of you.

      Something I’ve wanted for ages is a weighted blanket. I tried one that belonged to a relative and LOVED the soothing feeling of the weight. So I set out to buy one. After five minutes on line I discovered Just how pricey they were. Plus what I was looking for didn’t exist. I wanted something smaller than a full blanket. I was born hot...and not that good sexy way...just plain ass always needs a fan hot!         All the blankets I could find were child size lap blankets and SUPER expensive. Enter diy. So here we are. I thought about what I wanted and first bought the material and then the polly pellets. Twelve pounds worth. I actually wanted fifteen pounds but that would’ve meant another 20 dollars. I’m about half way done. It’s a little off but so far not s’bad to look at. Update soon.

   I know I promised an updated finished montage of photos when I finished my weighted blanket. Unfortunately, my sewing machine had other ideas ( that is a rendition of me after much swearing at it''s refusing to work. I looked just like Rhiana that day.Ok, Only in my effing dreams but attitude...all there baby.)  and since I am not a great or enthused about sewing anything by hand that large...it sits. It sits at least until I can get my inherited cursed machine to the shop. So I implore you to come back and see what other shenanigans I can begin only to add them to the pile of...someday I'll finish this.
