I forgot one of the most awesome parts of my day yesterday. I sold a fairy cottage on Etsy. It was my second one in less than a week. Maybe things are going to start moving along now.

I joined an artist's coop in Truckee. I started there on Monday. I'm hoping that some of my things will sell there. Tourist season is coming.

I worked a full day. The yard was really overgrown. It was our second day at the job. I don't normally work eight and nine hour days, but the money is good when I can. I worked much later than normal. Mike took Gabs to the eye doctor for me. They were home and Mike was cooking dinner when I got here. It was really nice. I have an awesome ( Read more... )

Your fairy is called Feather Hailfrost
She is a protector of the lonely.
She lives in high places where the clouds meet the earth.
She is only seen during the first snow of winter.
She wears pale blue like the sky. She has cheery turquoise wings like a butterfly.

The V is very sick.  She got sent home from work today.  There will be no Moulin Rouge party on Saturday.  We will postpone it until a later date.  So get those costumes ready!

I hope that all of you that attend Coronet are able to stop by our Moulin Rouge party Saturday evening.  We will have drinks for sure, and probably snacks as well.  We're planing on having hot water for hot chocolate, coffee, and tea  along with Irish Creme, Kalua, and some other things to add if you so desire.  It looks like my costume will be ( Read more... )

Work has been called today on account of the COLD.  I am trying to get my Halloween costume finished.  I'm working on the hat right now.  I'm  not really sure of the best way to attach a net veil to it in a manner that is attractive.   With the amount of work that this is taking, I'm going to have to be a can can girl every Halloween(and sometimes ( Read more... )
