Peppermint Patties, A Shop, And A Haircut

Do not try this at home.

SO, here’s what’s happening with me….In the last couple of weeks:
1. I quit my job. Why can’t people just be NICE?
2. I had a tooth pulled. (I would rather have given birth to twins with jagged edges.)
3. I’ve gotten hooked on Peppermint Patties. (the little one’s, which is worse because they fool you into thinking they aren’t as bad as the big ones so you end up eating 5 at a time, ok, 10 -whatever.
4.I tried to cut Gracies fur with scissors-now she looks like she’s been through the blender.
5.I might be opening my own store. THIS IS PRETTY BIG NEWS.
Did you ever feel like you just know there is something you should be doing, that you could do really well, if you just knew what that thing was? It’s so hard to find out what that is, don’t you think? I think we just go through our days, unsatisfied (except for the lucky few) and something is just nagging us to listen to what our heart is trying to say. Anyway, having a store for me is it. And making things to put in it, which I’ve done a lot of in the past couple of weeks. And buying things I think people will love. That is what fills me up and makes me happy. That and Peppermint Patties.

Gettting to know me.

Looking at this blank page kind of gives me a headache. I thought this blog thing was going to be a good idea, but now? Not so sure. Anyway, I thought I would try and introduce myself by making a list of 25 things about ME! It’s not as easy as you might think….
