Wow long time no blog....

Time sure does fly by.....it's been a year since I have been on here... A WHOLE YEAR I feel bad....but what do they say "Better late than never"  right?!?!

Not sure where to start, but here goes...I bet I lost all my followers not that I had very many, but I gotta get back in the groove.  I guess it just me and Chloe May (my dog) and Zeppelin (my cat).    I hope that my followers/friends will return or I will make new ones.

So what have I been doing???  I'll try and condense it:  Most recently, logged back into Etsy and actually posted some items in my shop:  "Semperfabdesigns" if anyone is interested.   That took me two days to post two items....I am about as computer literate as a box of rocks!  I love to create and sew but not comput(er)!!!  And when I ask my husband to help he just does it and when he's not here, I am sitting and the computer trying to figure it all out.  

Today, was better...I was finally able to get a couple more things posted.  iPad cases are pretty cool and the new in thing according to my 13 year old son.  Not that I can get him to carry one of my iPad cases to school.  But your sister used to carry bags and totes I made to school and she still does at Arizona State.  But I'll save that for another time.  Hopefully not next year LOL!

So the iPad cases are up and I have LOTS of other stuff to put out there but need to figure out how to expedite the whole "add new item" for sale thing on Etsy.

That was recent, now to go back a year....I took up another hobby.  Woodworking, I guess you could call it.  Now to figure out how to post a picture of what I made.  Ugghhh!

 Say Hello to "Melvin the Moose"  Yep I made him.  My first project.  I always wanted a Moose and now I got one. Made him up to be a Alaska State Trooper badge and all.  Well Jr. AST badge (can't see it, on the other side).  My husband couldn't believe it...."you made that??"  How did you do that.  Got a big piece of treated 3/4" plywood, a moose pattern, drew it up, cut it out....BTW your Black and Decker jigsaw SUCKS!!!
Bought me a Bosch Jigsaw and the guys at Lowes were all impressed with my project that I was making.  Primed him and decided to paint him up like a Trooper!! Viola Melvin the Moose.
**If you ever make it up to Alaska you need to go to Talkeetna and visit all the Moose.  Not sure who makes them, but there are quite a few in that little town all decorated up....Girl Moose with CD's for earrings and Boy Moose and even a Moose that has an Alaska Scenery on it.

Then I made a few more wood things.  Maddie the Moose.  She was fun to do and I decorated her all up for Halloween with a witches hat and a boa.  She was a Diva Witch LOL!

So Halloween.....I made this and put it outside with colored lights in the eyes of each.  It was really cool at night.  I made a couple snowmen that I have in the yard for winter, but they are almost all covered with snow.  We have lots this year!!  As my son would say it's snowing money, cuz the more it snows...the more money he makes plowing!!!  He is buying his motorcycle to take on the annual Dust to Dawson trip in June!  Yet another adventure.

I am what you might call OCD a little.  I can't do just one of anything.  And I won't stop until I figure it out, but my limit is the computer!!!  That drives me crazy!  As I laugh.....because my office looks like a hurricane hit because I was trying to download pictures and figure all this computer stuff the past couple of days.  Jim comes home and says what is going on in here.  I look up and say "I've been busy on the computer" and he says what is all this stuff....WELL I was looking for things to post and then I got overwhelmed so I started to sew and then tried to download stuff and IDK what happened.  I think a hurricane blew through my office when I went to the bathroom.

So here I sit in my messy office writing on my blog that hopefully someone will read, if not I just laugh at myself.

I will try and keep up with this blog thing.  And I need to reconnect with the people I said I would follow too...Oops!

Well good night all and I have lots more to tell later.
