adding new work to Etsy today

these are heading to my etsy shop today

2 snowmen, a patriotic lady and a little birdie

Well i'm just putting everything on etsy today

i was keeping stuff back for closer to Christmas and my artists friends know why ;)
but heck what hurricane Irma taught me was tomorrow isnt a given so its all out there now

except for my ornaments it was just too much to take all these pics , load up and add here fb  pinterest and etsy   yeesh!     ornaments maybe next week and please no discounts on those as they take alot of time and the embellishments are just as expensive


AND THANK YOU TO ALL WHO CHECKED IN ON US! I have the BEST  friends and customers and feel very blessed in all things. THANK YOU SO MUCH!  

so Christmas  and a set of Easter decor and a bear and wall angel  will be added today.

here are examples of the items hope you like them

WE GOT OUR POWER BACK!

OMG what an experience, the east coast really dodged a bullet as "they " say and our west coast really got it bad so prayers all around. 

some of my neighbors are still without power

we had our windows open after Irma was at a safe distance and you would be shocked at how much debris comes through the screens,   how do leaves get through there??   sand inside and our sheets were like sleeping on the beach ( a bit of exaggeration)  so very happy to do lots of laundry.

AND so happy to go to the grocery store with a promise to myself to keep my fridge clean and simple without clutter.   


Ok so the boys handled the storm ok, Archie is scared of everything poor lil thing but he and Henry did manage. i would water them down with a spritz bottle to make sure they were cool as you know short snouts have difficulty in the heat.

btw for those of you who cannot tolerate a cold shower, i saved all the empty water bottles, filled them up with tap water, set them outside in the hot sun, then used them in the tub/shower, it worked pretty well.   


reluctantly i am sharing a picture Dan took of me on day 3 without power/air and me holding a fan on Henry so the old queen could take his afternoon nap. yeesh he is spoiled      Archie had a smaller fan but he had to be tricked and it had to be further from him.

ok i know i look crazy but i just didnt care so exhausted from the heat and the mess (you can see the sand and a little debris on my floor i didnt crop that out)

Irma

Things are looking very very scary around here. And as i looked at updates on Irma it is very frustrating as there are paths every which way. today however it seems like southern FL is gonna get hammered and the east coast will be getting a cat 3 


Please don't blame people for not leaving their homes in FL, gas is gone in several areas where Irma is predicted to hit. with the traffic at a stand still, hard choices have to be made. So please don' t say they deserve what they get. Remember for days the track was everywhere and most people cannot just take a week off or more to leave. even today there is a possibility it'll go west, but probably heading up the east coast after hitting the south of Fl and maybe even the Carolinas. 

 Hoping and praying there is no more loss of life


9/10/17  Irma decided to head west and we are so worried for the folks there as they did not have as much a warning.   please continue prayers for FL and TX

Irma is causing evacuations here in Florida but in the meantime I have made some Christmas items that are heading to Ruby Lang's shop in SoLo  in San Diego
