Sassy Cheryls "show me" challenge 21!

Wow, I remember taking part in the first few Show Me challenges over at Sassy Cheryl's Blog. Now they are at 21! Hopefully I don't stay away and then they are at 42! So here's my space. I've been gutting and downsizing. I must admit, like alot of other fellow crafters, I enjoy the "buying" supplies part of crafting. But I've recently came to the conclusion that if I ever want to go on a holiday I best learn new practices around money! lol So gutting the house and seeing what I already own is a good start. And I own alot of crafty stuff! I don't use half of it. So it's time. So here's the big gut in the making;

This is the stuff in the hall that will be sold, somehow, somewhere!

 This is my table, looking a little better
 This is the cabinet looking way better! but still a work in progress. Maybe next week I'll manage to do a before and after post! lol

I've taken a picture of some flowers I'm working on for a swap;

 
So if you wanna have a peak at some other crafty spaces and projects go Here and look for Show Me Challenge 21 (sorry I can't seem to get the exact link to work on my new MacBook) ;)

Thanks for stopping by
Till next time

p.s. I've been eating healthier!

Life

Wow...yet again it's been far too long since I've blogged. I've been working mostly. Not sure if it's age or learning but work is kickin' my butt! It's probably neither of those and more the fact that I'm not taking care of myself the way I used to, even just a year ago used to. It's funny how we let ourselves become not our top priority so easily. I've forgotten how good it feels to eat healthy all the time, I've forgotten how good it feels to surround myself daily with laughter, I've forgotten how good it feels to exercise daily (not every couple weeks)....here I was thinking someone reading this might give me some advise...shed some light...but I think I may have shed it for myself. I need to put myself back on the list. Top of the list actually. Cause like the airplane air mask theory, if I ain't breathing there's no way I can help anyone else. :)

First thing I can do, that I should always be doing, that I do most of the time, just not ALL the time, is eat healthier. Starting tomorrow I will. Like I said, this won't be a big change for me. Just needs some tweakin'.

With this nice weather who wouldn't wanna get out and walk. I think it's time. I think I'll go for a walk.

Thanks for listening....the vent felt good.

I'll check in in a week and let you know how it went. Keep me accountable will yah? ;)
