When Being Creative goes Array!

It all started so innocently, a recent buy from the thrift store of a peasant style three tiered denim skirt. I just knew this soft denim skirt would be a awesome addition to my work wardrobe, but after trying it on at home, I decided the skirt just didin't compliment my figure at all. The question became what to do with such a great find, out came my sketchbook, and on came the light of creativity. This lovely bit of fabric could be a new purse, or part of some other project. I decided to create an infinity scarf with cut out t-shirt fabric embellishment and thread emproidery to start. To put it plainly, it didn't work---the finish project lacked something. I'm going to keep it around and see if it will grow, but for now the creative spark for this project is not shining to brightly.

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.     Hebrews 11:1

Moving Down the Road

I now live in San Antonio, Texas. My husband, oldest child and I pulled up stakes from Detroit, MI on Monday of last week. Because of some difficulties with the Budget rental truck, we could have been in Texas sooner. The cigarette lighter fuse was blown, so after two hours on the road I was driving blind with no idea of which road to take, then the truck blew its starter in Oklahoma, and no part was to be had for THREE DAYS. No problem!!!! The company sends a different truck and three men to transfer our total household processions. This task became a four hour job, in the blazing hot Oklahoma sun, and yes items got DAMAGED. It has been decided, BUDGET TRUCKS, are definitely on my “do not use ever again” list.
