The kindness of strangers....

It's been a hellish year for me... From illness to moving to family issues.... I won't babble on. It would be long and probably incoherent.

I just wanted to thank everyone who makes me smile. Mind you, there are a lot of you. A simple 'thank you' does it. A 'wow' does it. The little things do it for me. Every time you make a comment to someone (that's nice), you add something to them.... And they remember it.

Dang, I babble all the time.

Anyway, I love you. That's it. Be kind! And kindness will come to you....

Tag Lovin'

I need to get another punch. It's just that simple. I LOVE PUNCHING TAGS!

Unfortunately, I'm put to shame by a few fellow tag creators. I rely on the paper to make a delicious tag, while they make them works of art! I'm shamed!

I was browsing through the maze that is etsy forums when I saw my beloved blog thread... Stilleto Heights is usually the OP (Original Poster, I think is what that means) and she's great at it. Not only does she seem to browse everyone's blogs, but she just happens to have a rockin' shop too.

On the right is a photo of a set of her tags. Lovely, huh?

She's having a sale too! yay!

Her Shop
The Tags!

Sheesh!

I'm sitting at work and our server bombs on us... I can't WORK while at work... So I'm blogging. Funny, huh!?

I wish I hadn't forgot my camera this morning! I could have showed you my lovely new things! I have soooo many too! Why isn't there more time in the day!? Why don't I have an assistant yet?!

Here is just a new set?!

It's a surprise! Even to me! Thanks for the help!

Talent #5- mermadebaubles

I had the delight of coming across this lovely shop before, but usually was too busy to really sit down and admire her work.

Well today, I about drooled over my keyboard when I saw this lovely Frozen Leaves Bracelet in mermadebauble's shop!

It would be just perfect for fall, summer..... Actually, every season! Lovely isn't it?!

I don't wanna!

You can't make me! I don't want another birthday!!!!!!!

But, alas, I must.... I feel like shopping even, a bit........ But with so many presents coming in, I feel like I should be good.

Life has been so overwhelming of late and I feel as if I've been a bad mother to my blog....... My car is broken... I'm in major debt all of a sudden. It's like my luck has turned. Hard to be happy on my birthday when I don't even want to smile.

Anyway, I'll quit whining now!

Happy November 12th!
