Hi! How's the week starting off for you? Anything interesting going on? It's been a bit quiet here thus far, and I don't mind a bit. I have to file my first quarterly tax return by Friday, so am planning on doing that tomorrow. Fun! :-p I made entirely too much inventory for the craft … Continue reading Mel’s Monday Musings: September 16, 2019

Hi, y'all! This Monday has just about gotten away from me. How's it going? Fall is definitely in the air here, at least in the evenings. I love it! It's so natural, this gradual darkening and deepening toward winter. It's supposed to be warm-ish most of the week in the afternoons, but I know that … Continue reading Mel’s Monday Musings: September 9, 2019

Hi, y'all. 🙂 How's it going? It's been a busy week here, as we're down to the last days before school starts. I'm trying to work out the wake-everyone-up schedule to maximize sleep but minimize the hassle of getting three kids out the door. Two of mine will ride the same bus, even though they … Continue reading Mel’s Monday Musings: September 2, 2019

Alright, let's talk about that craft show. I was stunned by how poorly I did this weekend. I didn't expect to sell out or anything, but I didn't even make my booth fee back! Yes, they say you have to have/spend money to make money, but we're not the kind of folks with money to … Continue reading Mel’s Monday Musings: August 26, 2019

Hi, y'all! What's on your mind tonight? Stuff is getting real with the craft show; it's this coming weekend! Setup is Friday afternoon, and then Saturday from 9-5 and Sunday from 9-3 it's "showtime." (Kind of a big deal for this introvert...I really hope I can be "on" for everyone. I love the stuff I … Continue reading Mel’s Monday Musings: August 19, 2019

Hi, y'all! It's been a nice day here; hope you can say the same! Any day that starts out with time on (or in) the water is good by me. We went on a boat tour today, on the St. Lawrence River. It's gorgeous. (That's a castle through those trees!) And now I'm happily mid-chainmaille … Continue reading Mel’s Monday Musings: August 12, 2019

Hiiii, August! 🙂 I love August (and Lughnasadh; hope everyone who celebrates had a lovely one!) because it really starts to feel like the year is on the wane, even if not weather-wise just yet. July is still so "high summer" in my head that it doesn't feel real yet. I've always been a fan … Continue reading Mel’s Monday Musings: August 5, 2019

Hi! Big changes are afoot for me this week. On Saturday, I had my annual eye exam. No major changes in my Rx (enough that I need new glasses, as per usual, but my nearsightedness is slightly less terrible -- apparently that can happen in your 30s. I'll take it!)...but I have to go back … Continue reading Mel’s Monday Musings: July 29, 2019

Hi! How's your Monday been? I woke up to pleasant temperatures (thank you, rain!) and no headache for the first time in a few days, so that was a good start! I don't get headaches often, especially not recurrent-for-days ones, so when I do I'm a big baby about them. It's been a sleepy kind … Continue reading Mel’s Monday Musings: July 22, 2019

What a beautiful day it's been! Not too terribly hot (warm, certainly; the fans are blowing all through the house right now) -- I don't like the days when I stay covered with a thin sheen of sweat, especially at night when I'm trying to sleep. I've been crafting in my spare time, mostly, and … Continue reading Mel’s Monday Musings: July 15, 2019
