What’s new everyone? It has been a crazy amount of time since I have written a blog. Why did I stop writing? I stopped because life got a little crazy and I didn’t feel that I was making an impact. I want to make sure what I’m sharing is relevant. When I do have things to share, I [...]
I found this art several years ago. I don’t know where. Probably some craft or art show. I loved it when I saw it and I still do. Most of you probably don’t know that I really am from “Up North”. Two and a half hours north of Minnesota for all of the Americans. For the Canadians, it [...]
