i am trying to get new items up at my etsy shop but have to confess that it’s not happening at anything near a respectable pace. i’ve got a few things ready for sale but haven’t had the time to photograph or list them. i hope to get to that tomorrow afternoon – in between loads of laundry.

all living happens between loads of laundry.

the thing i am most excited about, handmaking-wise – is lip balm! i’m ordering my ingredients this week and will start creating as soon as able. i hope to add some bath and body product to my store before too long. i’m going to sit down on tuesday to order a ton of supplies and i just can’t wait! anticipate a luscious pink grapefruit lip balm and a creamy eucalyptus and mint bar soap.  yum!

today i’d love to be card making but we’re going to dinner at dan’s sister’s to celebrate his parents 60th anniversary. well worth the outing! i should be leaps ahead on laundry but i spent all afternoon on the phone trying to get my text messaging working. still not sure that it is, though. blah.

also, grape! lip balm! i think so!
