Folly Thy Purpose is Advice
So my cousin and I went on a Quilting Shop Hop yesterday. 6 stores, part of a quilt from each store.

It just hit me out of nowhere, and I kinda wanted to slap myself in the forehead.
Want to learn how to do something? Look it up on Youtube.
Want to teach something? Post a video of it on Youtube. (great way to sell a product!!!!)

Blog Hopping Rocks
I love following new blogs and hopping at least once a week. I learn new things, am amused by new people and I pick up new little happy quirks. My favorite quirk of the moment is from In Color Order, she does a Today I love the...
Here is my Today I love the...
Smell of: beer and food
Sound of: UFC Announcers and my African Gray's side commentary
Taste of: Jet's Pizza
Sight of: friends gathered around the TV
Feel of: my new mouse I found at Big Lots for $13

Days Off Usually Become Idle
Days off usually become idle, no matter how good the intentions... Doesn't help that I get distracted easily either.
I'm participating in the Monthly Make 2011 (there is a picture on the side bar to learn more information) and here is my update on said participation.
Well, the skirt purse is coming along, yesterday I cut the hole for the keys pocket and I've been sewing some of it's seams... I just don't have any patience lately...
I seem to have deleted the before picture of the particular skirt I'm making, so here is a pic of one of the other skirts that is almost identical. You can't tell, but the skirt has pockets. lol
I have this one, a deep orange one, and a purple one with a little different pattern. $3.00 each at Kohl's on the clearance racks. I'm thinking $10-15 for the purse, just to factor in the work I put into it. Sure, it is super easy, but I'm adding snaps, a inside pocket, etc...
I did get some scrapbooking done (a whole two whopping pages, that's what I get for deciding to scrap late at night)

Too Much Clutter in Your Life
I am a clutter queen.
I am a scavenger of good deals.
In the end, I'm what Grandma knew all along, a Magpie.
I like shiny things, I like really good deals, I like whimsical things but I also like rock and roll edgy looking things.
I don't want to go back to my hoarding tendencies, but I can't just throw things away. It's such a waste to me to just throw things away. I'm going to try and sell some of it, and then the rest will just have to go to the Salvation Army as a tax write off. *sigh*
I'm having problems parting with my stuff, but I've decided I can't get any more stuff with what I already have cluttering my life. (Also my husband likes to make little jibs now and again about my clutter)
Well, I have an eBay, and an Etsy, and a Yardsellr account, so a-selling I shall go!

The Meaning of Life
I've decided that the meaning of life is to pursue happiness, love as much as possible, and help others that are lost in their purpose.
Sure, this is open for interpretation, but I can't be far off, right? =)
Love everyone like you'll die tomorrow, and remember that you aren't the only one who has bad days!!!!
Just roll with it people!
Okay, there is my infinite wisodom.
End of Line.
