Recently I decided that I needed to get myself into gear and start doing things to actually help myself. One of these days I would like to get myself a pottery wheel and do what I sincerely love, but for now, I need to make the money to do that. So I'm getting ready to … Continue reading Getting ready to make a change

All the work you don’t see
I'm not sure about you, but I'm fairly new to the whole, "making things in the hopes of selling them" thing. Because I am a novice, I'm learning things as I go, and learning that these things take a lot of effort and time. At least when you're already trying to put them into your … Continue reading All the work you don’t see
We’ve Relocated!
It's been a bit of a journey, and things have yet to be completely organized or unpacked, but we have moved completely into our new rental. It was a little sad saying goodbye to the little cabin in the woods, but at the same time it's very nice being close to everything in town. I'm … Continue reading We’ve Relocated!
Keto Week One Done!
As I outlined last week, I started a Keto diet at the beginning of the week. This week has definitely been a success in my opinion. Currently I'm down just a little over six pounds and I didn't really have much of a problem with the Keto Flu. As I stated before, we are using … Continue reading Keto Week One Done!

Try, Fail, Try Again, Fail Better
As I mentioned yesterday, I made croissants. After letting the dough rest overnight, I got up and checked how it was doing today. I threw it away. It was not meant to be croissants. Then I started over. I switched recipes as well, from the Julia Child recipe over to one from King Arthur Flour. … Continue reading Try, Fail, Try Again, Fail Better
Spring Cleaning in a Week
I have no idea if I'm actually going to be able to pull this off, but I'm going to give it the old college try. Starting yesterday, I no longer have a job. Hopefully that's a temporary situation, but rather than immediately jump into trying to find another gig, I decided I was going to … Continue reading Spring Cleaning in a Week
