Lattes and empanadas

This is it. This weekend we think Max has to decide on which college he will be accepting. Very nervewracking. I do not think he knows what to do. I think he will be very happy at either Tufts or BU but I think he still is holding out for that NYU waitlist. He is,…

Butterflies and Bullshit

There has not really been much designing going on these past few days. I did make a cat lady scarf.LOL.My anxiety has got the better of me again. I have been struggling all week. It is not made any better by the fact that I am exhausted and have breathing issues. Yesterday was total BS….

Butterflies and Poppies

  Interesting weekend. I am so irritated by the fact that my energy level is completely depleted again. I am sure that the iron is all gone in my body again. I had the infusions three months ago and all of a sudden I am feeling washed out again. So annoying. I planned on a…

New Projects

I have been taking photographs of all the new flowers blooming for Spring. I find the photos subjects in the strangest places. I have found California poppies growing on the dirt walkway at school. They are beautiful and orange and vibrant. I also found some Peonies at my sister’s and I have used them for designs…

A super birthday and MRI accomplished

I did it. I actually have had the MRI on my right hip. I am such a ditz because I made sure I took out my rings, earrings and I even wore a wire-free bra…However, I arrive and my sister points out that my shirt has metal studs. We had to go into the changing room and…

A Cake for my girl

My precious niece Jordy is turning 18 this weekend. She is six weeks younger than our guy. I decided to get my Pinterest juices going and make her a money cake for her special day. This is what I came up with for this project. I never know where these things will end up but here…

March 2018

So this is the kiddo and all of the brochures sent to him by all of the colleges he showed interest in and a few more. He has been accepted by three so far and we are still waiting for I think another 5. They all seem to stagger their admissions. So far it looks…
