RIP Belle

So, I woke up this morning to find my precious little SnowBelle has passed away.  He was laying in the middle of the mouse cage, eyes open, looked kind of scafred, but was not breathing.  Peppy was hiding under the wheel in panic.  I removed peppy from the cage into a mouse carrier and gave him some food.  I'm looking for a tiny box and need a plastic glove to remove Belle.

This happened without any warning what so ever.  I mean last night he was just fine he was alive around 9 pm when I fed them before I went to sleep.  But, I guess it was his time.  He did live longer than a year.  I knew this time would be coming soon.  But it is still hard.

I'm trying to calm myself.  Is it bad that I'm crying over a mouse?  Maybe, but they were my babies.  I love them.  I sure am going to miss the little guy.  Atleast he lived a good life in a nice clean mouse cage with a friend to play with every day.

With this, I wonder how much longer I am going to have Pep with me?  I don't want to lose him too.  But I know his time is also coming soon...

I dont have any recent pictures, I've been meaning to get around to it, but its too late now. 
R.I.P. Little guy, I love you and I am going to miss you muches!

Revamp #2

My second Revamp, which I redid last night and took pictures of today is my dragon bracelet.  It is a black Dragon bracelet, in the spiral pattern.  It measured about 7 1/2 inches.  The dragons stuck out every which way. 



Now:
I made it a little thicker, to be stronger.  The first one had 2 strands of 1mm hemp as the base, the revamp version has 4 strands of 1 mm hemp as the base.  I also added a gray strand to it, to give it a hint of color.  This is not an inch longer at 8 1/2 inches, making it almost the perfect size for an anklet.  Will make custom sizes.

Revamping

So, Looking back at my items, I have improved a lot.  I am going to be working on revamping some of my first items.   I started this process today, and wanted to show you one of the items I decided to redo!

First:  The music note car mirror decoration.

This has been up for 4 monthes, with 90 views, 3 hearts.  Not only has my work improved, so has my picture taking ability.  I think I made this in like February of last year, before I knew of Etsy, when I was just doing this becasue I was bored.  Its original intent was to be a bracelet, but at 9 inches didnt turn out that way.  I think it looks a lot better now!

Before:



The New and improved Bracelet, that now measures a little under 7 inches.




What do you think?

A New Direction

So, As I already states, I started a new blog which I will try to update daily with anything.  But that leaves this blog almost empty now.  So what to do, what to do?

I need to make more items for my shop so I can show them off here.  And I need to review other shops/ promote other shops.  So this week will be spent on thinking how to make this blog better.

If you have any suggestions, please let me know!

New Beginnings

I ope everyone had an awesome New Years Eve.  Mine was okay.  I watched Twighlight Zone for the first time ever yesterday.  One was the pig face episode where the human was ugly.  The other was the episode where all the power goes out on Maple Street.  They were interesting...

Then I hung out with another friend for a while and saw his baby.  Well, shes 5 monthes old now, but I hadnt seen her yet.  She was so cute! 

But other than that, I pretty much did nothing.

What about you guys?

Change

So I have been doing a lot of thing about stuff, I havent been writting much latley.  In highschool, and beyond writting was my therapy.  But the past 2 years, I have been slacymous kin.  I even started an LiveJournal with annymous writting to get my feelings out there, didnt work.  My personal LJ I just updated yesterday, but before that I hadnt writtin since April.  I have a notebook diary I started 2 years ago, I've filled up about 30 pages in two years.  So I need a change.

I know I write some personal stuff in here.  And I might continue that, but I started a new blog.  I'm going to try to update it daily, with anything.  It doesnt matter, I just need to do it like a habbit, for atleast a year.  I need to feel like me again.  Its located at http://www.xcreepiegirlx.blogspot.com/  so hopefully you will want to follow me and read some randomness.

Which leaves me with this blog.  I know I havent updated in a while, I had a boyfriend and spent a lot of time with him.  Well we pretty much broke up Sunday.  Its been kind of hard on me becasue I really care about him, but were going to stay friends.  So I will be on here and ETSY a lot more again.  I hope to make this blog a little more ETSY oriented than it has been.

I really love you guys.  Hopefully you all have a good New Years Eve/ New Years.  I will probably be on here, working on this, my other Blog, and etsy.  I hope to get a hair cut today, and dye my hair a new look for a new year.

See you next year!

Merry Christmas

Wow, it has been more than forever since I have posted.  Sorry guys, just have been busy with Christmas and stuff.  Which also means, I havent gotten around to reading other peoples blogs or doing much on etsy.  That really makes me sad.

I however got a new phone, and Blake is going to hve an amazing christmas.  His 6 month evaluation for his therapy was last week, it went good.  He's already got a speach therapist and a cognative therapist, but we are adding an Occupational Therapist to the mix, but the OT will only come once a month, where as the others come once a week.  But he has been improving ALOT.  He is now handing me things instead of whining about it, like when he wants a drink he hands me his cup instead of standing at the fridge whining about it.  When he wants to go bye bye he has been handing me his coat, ect.  And yesterday, he finally drank out of a straw.  First time for that!  I think having him around a 4 year old and a 6 year old has helped a lot too, becasue he is picking up on things they are doing.  My baby boy is growing up so fast, but I'm glad his progress is speeding up.

For christmas I bought him a lot of books, puzzles, movies, and a few toys.  But I spent like 3 hours wrapping presents one day, he has gotten a lot!  I tried this morning to get him to open some presents, no luck.  I'm really hoping he will open his presents this year though.

I hope everyone has a safe holiday season!
