Smartt Designs for sale?

I want to share with you the happenings of my staycation week but that will have to wait until I can type it out. (I have the outline written out, I have just been too distracted to actually do something with it.)

Anywho, here is a doodle on a post-it note I did at work. I wanted to interpret a quote I found on the internet.

The quote: "Happiness is always here but covered by thoughts, desires, and fears."



In other crafty news, I am working on a project that I just love. I am waiting to receive something in the mail before I can finish it. As soon as it is done, I will show you what has me so excited!

I haven't decided whether I am going to keep it or try to sell it... at this point, that decision is up in the air. I will let you know what I decide. But, I am thinking about selling some of my other finished projects. What do you think, would anyone buy a Smartt Design?

10th time's a charm.

I am packing up all the junk I have accumulated and am moving it out of Leah's house this week. A month from today, she will be Mrs. Mullins, and her and Chris will be living in that house together.

First of all, I can't believe how fast the wedding date has arrived! The months flew by. Second, this will be the tenth time I've moved everything I own. My stuff is quite heavy.

I'm sorry, what was your question? Why, yes... I am looking to recruit all able bodied people with trucks to make my life a little easier... thanks for asking. ;)

I bought one of those huge plastic storage tubs with wheels from Walmart (along with a second, slightly smaller wheel-less tub) to pack my movies and books in. I first transferred my DvDs into the larger of the tubs and ran out of room just as I was getting to the top row of my shelf... so I had to put the rest into the second tub. I think my collection is a little excessive, I may trim it down some. It's kind of ridiculous.

As I was packing things away last night, Leah came home and we started taking down the old rooster decor that was used in the kitchen for so long and started putting up her own decorations. We also rearranged furniture in the living room and moved some of the better decor to different spots. It looks cleaner, bigger, and much less cluttered. LC is starting to put her own touch on things... she is already starting to look like a pretty little wife. :)

I am going to be sad to leave here. I absolutely love living in Ringgold. This house is in a great location and it is not at all far from one of my best friends. Not to mention, the house is pretty big for just two people... lots of room and privacy if needed. I am moving back into my Pawpaw's house with Ash. My Pawpaw doesn't live there anymore (he lives with his new wife) but he does still keep most of his things in the house. I am not sure how I am going to have all of my stuff fit in there. My stuff takes up too much room. His small but quaint house is pretty much the central location for our family... there is a lot of foot traffic on those hardwood floors. I do love that they are there often and I will get to see them more, but I am known for being less sociable than the rest of the clan; I like my privacy. It'll just be a change I will have to get used to again. (I have lived there once before.) A plus is that it is close to work, so less gas wasted and more time to sleep in. Also, my seester makes a great roommate, what with her culinary skills and all. ;)

Change. Ugh.
