Happy Monday!!!

Today is a refreshing day!! A day for you to pick something you love to do and do it!! 

And this is why I'm blogging! I love it! As you can tell from my prolific use of exclamation points!!! 

This past weekend, I tried to make it a point to create everyday…it was a bit tough as life is whizzing by like crazy, but intentional living is the best living, for sure!! We start school in 7 days, my birthday is in 2 days, and my house needs to get picked up today!! eeeeeek!! LOL!!

Newsletter

On Friday, I created and sent out a newsletter…if you didn't get it, please sign up for my newsletter here! The good news is if you didn't get it, you didn't miss the free embroidery pattern. I totally forgot to put it in…yep, confessions! I hope to have that up on the blog Wednesday. We'll see…I have a gob of school prep, two quilts, 5 blocks, and some birthday gifts to whip up, all before Saturday! But I can do it!!

Let me share some fun creativity with you…
