Masks and Thank You's.....

Masks and thank yous......2 very different topics however in the last week those seem to be what I'm getting a lot of. I have been spending weeks doing a wide range of things to help others and I am feeling burnt out. Even with work lately; all I want to do is cry and give up but then within 48 hours... I received 3 thank you cards. Sure it might not mean much to others but to me it meant the world. Like I was finally being recognized. As for the masks...Even with the thank yous, people are very nasty lately and I have found myself hiding other than around my family and Zach. Even those closest outside my family have had me on edge so I'm just hanging low. With Halloween right around the corner, Zach surprised me with this when I picked him up to go play cards the other day....
I absolutely love it! And there are plans behind it but you will just have to wait and see what they are.... With that I am going to head off to bed.
Keep Smiling!

Time Flies....

I would love to say that Time Flies when your having fun but, I really have been having fun. Time has just been flying by without me noticing. It seems to be bringing a bit of bad luck my way as well and I need to get back on track so that I don't get any further into this pit I seem to be landing in. With this said and Christmas aapproaching; I need to get back to my using the items in my house list. I have really been getting off track with that. I have been asked to make a lot of items for people but really Its just not worth it anymore because many have been ungrateful after such items are complete. Not so much ungrateful of the item but as me as a whole person. You might ask..."What does this have to do with anything?" Well....It has a lot to do with it because at some point I allowed myself to fall into a crack where I stopped being myself and I allowed everyone to walk all over me and it has to come to a stop because now I'm broken, tired, angry and just not myself. Even worse, I am in no way anywhere closer to my goal of gaining space in my house because with every project I have completed for people; I have gained more small balls of yarn, or spools of ribbon and I just need to start making room and getting rid of what I don't need so I can move in the spring.
Yes my move date has moved to Spring. 1. I want all my past bills paid off because I want a complete fresh start and I deserve it. and 2. I want one last Christmas with my grandpa and sister before my life completely starts on its own. They might not always feel the same about me but I really do Cherish them. And now that I'm done rambling I can move on with recent news.... Lets see...In The last month.......Well I broke my Arm, Crocheted a baby blanket and hat set for 2 people forgetting to take pictures and put them on here. I made a lot of finger puppets and head bands and oh yeah... the most recent thing I have made was a request from a nurse I work with and love. A Sock Monkey hat. lol. So here is a pick since I haven't updating in forever. Things are slow in the crochet world since I only have one hand now. Sadly that's when life hits so please pray for me. :0( OK here's the Picture...
