Busy is not even close

I am amazed I haven't started a friction fire with how much crocheting i have done in the last two weeks. I am so excited to be getting to do the Ada Fair with Margie. It is a huge opportunity for both her and I. Not only to get our name out there but to hopefully make some money for bills. With winter approaching ... yes summer won't last forever....my order book is filling up but I would love for it to be so full I have to close it to catch up. LOL! Maybe one day. :D

In other news....

Mom got a new car. It is awesome and she is so happy about it.

The AC in the main part of the house went out today BUT luckily it was a cheap fix. Thank goodness!!

Dave made me these awesome hat stands for the fair......


He did such an awesome job!!!

Not much else has been going on.Hopefully I have TONS to tell you about after the fair!!

For now .... Night My Freaky Darlings

I am here I swear!

So ya I have failed again to update my blog.... I used to be so on top of it too.

Life has been ... .... well HOT. Okieland has seen triple digits all summer and our electric bills show it. We have been hiding indoors all summer. We have finally seen some rain the last few days and that has helped for our digits to be in the upper 80s low 90s. YAY!!!

The heat has allowed me to crochet A LOT. It has also aided in our netflix addiction. LOL! Mom got us hooked on Eureka. Then of course when we catch up with it and can watch it on tv.... they cancel it!! GRRR! She is in love with netflix tho... and I love to see her smile.

Our poor garden adventure has been dashed due to the heat. It is holding on for it's life but hasn't produced much. :( Hopefully next year is better. Altho i am curious to see how our sweet potatoes do ... they have taken over a whole 6 foot bed.

School starts on Monday for us. I think we are all excited. This is Adam's Sr. year, Beth's Sophomore year ..... *sigh* .... how time flies. Harli is ready to get her year started and if she stays on this track we might get her a year ahead of what she should be.

Other news....

~Mom wrecked her car. She is fine but we are all on pins to see if they total her car or fix it.
~Mom went to the doctor shortly before her accident and was told she has 3 bulging vertebrate in her neck and 4 in her lower back. She has an appointment with a spinal doc soon to find out what needs to be done.
~Dragon's mom has had a rough summer. She has been diagnosed with MS. We have asked that everyone lift her up in thought and prayer for this news is a lot to handle.
~Dave's mom is in NY for the summer holiday. She will be coming home soon. We have missed her.
~My sister Sarah is going through some life drama. We have been lifting her up and hoping everything works out.


Lots of prayers and energy being sent out from our lil family this summer. Between rain, family, family overseas in the military and our government our candles seem to be burning non stop.

BUT for now I am going to call it a night. I have to prop shoot all my fall line tomorrow and get things ready for class come Monday.

Night my freaky darlings!!!
