I just realized...

In a little over two weeks I will be moving. This means I should start packing... I should start cleaning.. I should start going through the things I've acquired in these last 8 months. I should be deciding which stuff is junk, which stuff I should bring and which stuff I want to keep, but probably won't have room for.

When we moved here back in September we barely fit everything into our little Toyota.
Right now I can look around the room and see all the things we've purchased since then..

A gargoyle to guard out mantle,
My newest tea set to make it feel more like home,
Taylor's newest TV screen, so he can play xbox and watch movies at the same time.
The box of yarn to keep me busy,
Our printer,
My books,
Our new shoes,
Our wine glasses, so we can drink Dr. Pepper like fancy people,
My box of buttons,
Mowgli's newest toys.

My button collection has literally doubled since this picture was taken!

I really don't know if this will all fit.

When we first moved here we didn't have room for dishes, how silly of me to buy a whole tea set.


It's not that I have a spending problem. I just like to fill my house.. er.. apartment with things that remind me of home, things that make me feel like I'm not living in a hotel.
Things that make me feel like I belong.

I'm not looking forward to these next few weeks.
I hate packing.
I hate throwing out things.
I hate leaving things behind.

Someday we will move into a big house, where we will stay for years and years and I can fill it with gargoyles and tea sets and buttons and books.

Until then I guess I can always mail my stuff to my new address.

P.S. I changed my blog back... I felt closed in.  I like a lot of space. I feel like I can breath again... phew!

This Must Be Part 2

It's time to take off our shoes,
Time to enjoy the sun,
Forget about the thorns...
Through the woods we shall run. 
 I know you think I'm silly,
You always tell me so,
It's just that I'm a dreamer...
And I want you to follow.
 I wandered on ahead,
 And left you far behind,
You know I didn't mean to...



Six new headbands added to the shop.

Holy Headbands! Part 1

Today's weather: 78°F
Sunny and Perfect
14 new headbands have been waiting to be photographed.
We were only able to photograph 8.

The world was very crowded today.
People were everywhere!
My favorite photo spots were covered with people...
 I'm so lucky to have a forest in my backyard.
Tomorrow's weather: 78°F
Sunny and Perfect
Again.
Good thing too... we have 6 more headbands to photograph!

These 8 headbands are in the shop.
 I have completely redone my headbands, check em out!
