Well, hello there! Long time no write.

Well, hello there. I know, I know. It's been about six weeks, I know! So much has happened now let's see here... my sister Myra and her husband Chris welcomed a second little boy, Levi Daniel on Jan. 13th, my niece Sophia turned two one month later, Nick turned 33 a few weeks ago, I became addicted to eBay, we had great dinners with friends, my other sister, brrrrrp... What?! Addicted to eBay?!

It is true my friends. eBay. Ahh eBay. I wasn't looking for trouble. It just happened. I would be sitting in my chair with Sasha (doing her business) and I was just so tired of all the same games, over and over and over and over. Words with Friends. Hanging with Friends. Pinterest. Family Feud. And I'm even sorry to say, Tetris. I was just so tired of them and I needed something different. Something new. Something exciting! But mostly something new. So I did it. I opened my eBay app and started to browse.

At this point, my brain had acclimated to the fact that we now have a girl and only four months after her birth I began thinking about bows and her wearing them. I checked Etsy.com and found some really cute baby ones and when I was going to "checkout" I about laid an egg! I thought to myself, "I could totally make it myself and she'd have a better variety!"

So now let's rewind a little. I knew I wanted to make her own bows but didn't have anything to make them with so... BAM! eBay. I bought this and that and this and that. After all, it was only $.99 and free shipping, BAM! I won't say what all I bought but... I have a good supply now!

So, my time nowadays has been filled with bow making. Big over the top to ittty bitty baby ones. I also decided that I would start selling them on Etsy once I can get the pictures right. It's fun for me as I am learning something new.

As for this blog... I promise to do a better job of sticking to it. And as I'm finishing writing this, I just got outbid on some ribbon that I really wanted but now it's out of my price range. *sigh* oh well! Next!
