A New Adventure Begins!

About 7:30pm today (a day in the 90's) we finally finished up moving all of Manny's items over to my place and cleaned his duplex so it's gleaming. Big kudos to Sam and Jimmy for helping us move the larger items to the house. Today Sam brought out his drill, saw, and hammer to remove Manny's air conditioner and install it in my bedroom. So now we have AC in the living room and the bedroom. Still have unpacking to do but we are excited to start this new adventure together.

Yesterday we attended Jimmy and Lexii's baby shower. I snagged a bunch of baby girl gifts from Ross and made a dad basket and a mom basket. I even won a diaper raffle gift! Can't wait to meet baby Hazely!





Has all this activity stopped me from crafting?  Oh hell no!  Have been into creating wire figures. Picked up a Goodwill boat, added a sail, then attached a wire fisherman.

Made a wire figure wrapped in twine but wasn't sure what to do with it. Jordan suggested a harbor seaman with buckets of fish so I decided to go for it. No yellow vinyl at Joann's so picked up yellow felt and used iron on vinyl treatment. Used clay for boots, gloves, and a pipe. Picked up a fish mold from the candy section and used liquid Sculpey to create them, finishing them off with paint. Grabbed a couple of baskets then attached the harbor man to a piece of Willow Grove driftwood.




Grabbed a couple of 70% off birdhouses at Michaels, painted them, and hung them in a tree out front and in the back.


I'm beat so it's time for bed. Enjoy your Monday tomorrow!
