Well I went to the Cobbler

Cobbler, cobbler, mend my shoe.

The shoe needed repair and now it is done .... Most of you who know me might not believe this, but it is true .... I don't like confrontation. Don't get me wrong ... I do like a good fight, but I want to end up as friends. I guess I am more like a guy that way .. No offence meant to the male of our species. I think if more of us gals had a good "scrap", moved on and went out together for a beer afterward ... it would be a whole lot easier on our emotional health.

Get it done by half-past two;

I find instead of "Scrappin" ... us females tend to fight with our words, hurt each other, take offence, and hold a grudge .... No offence meant to the female of our species. We tend to fight and fight and are lucky if we "get it done" by half-past two.


Stitch it up and stitch it down,

The Shoe has been to the Cobbler, been mended and now I am ready for a good ole run. I am feeling so much more confident in my choices and here is where it all gets fun. The future is filling up with more and more opportunities. I feel like I am "stitching up and stitching down". Craft shows, classes, and crops are coming at me from right and left. (Thanks to you who have sent "work" my way ... You know who you are). I am card making, crafting and creating even in my sleep ... I asked my youngest the other day ... if she could "draw me an igloo" .... even before I said "good morning" to her....

and Boy do I hope that my winter card idea works out.


And then I'll give you half a crown.

I don't know exactly how much "half a crown" is ....

but if I can make a penny and have fun doing it .... I am all for it.

So remember to all of you ...

Keep Calm, Carry On and above all Keep Crafting.
