New buttons on Etsy.

And new buttons at Polka Dot Creations.

Foggy morning

And lots of fog out the window.

Foggy morning

It’s been a day of catching up. I only got half of the orders out today (*sigh*) but the rest will definitely be done by tomorrow. Some batches just take longer than others. This particular one was about twice the size as usual, with a large percentage of international orders. Shipping globally is more time-consuming than shipping locally.

Foggy morning

Of course, the kicker is that once I get these out tomorrow, it will already be time to get the next batch ready to go, if I don’t want to fall behind again. And I don’t.

Ah, it’s almost time for the school bus to get here and another evening to begin. Off I go to await my firstborn’s arrival home.

Whoa, almost forgot my little bit for 30 Days of Thankfulness…  Today I am thankful not to be a deer.  The hunt is on this week at the Great Swamp, and I woke up to the sound of shots being fired.  Just heard another one a few seconds ago, too.  So, I’m glad I’m not a deer and that nobody is stalking me with a rifle at the moment.

  1. Great, you gave me a Da Vinci’s Notebook earworm.

    I wish I were a deer
    ‘Cause if I were a deer
    Then we could play out in the forest
    Till you shot me by mistake
    Then you would carve me into steak
    With a touch of sweet and gentle
    And keep my head as a memento
    Hanging in the upstairs hall…
    I don’t want to be a deer after all.

    1. Haha. I really do have to check them out one of these days…

  2. so thats where our Tule fog went. Thank you for taking it away. I prefer cold sunny mornings to cold foggy ones.

    1. My pleasure. I enjoy the fog (just like I enjoy a good rainy day like today) as long as it’s infrequent and I don’t have to be out in it too much. Foggy, cold, rainy weather is so much easier to appreciate from behind a window while in your pj’s and sipping a warm mug of something delicious 🙂

  3. Wow, that is a lot of fog. I enjoy it as long as I don’t have to drive in it. It’s very mysterious and moody. You just want to grab a cup of hot coco and look out the window.

    1. Yeah. It’s great weather for curling up with a mug of something hot. Not so great for navigating the roads!
