Evicted

It would seem I've been evicted.  From Thirtyville.  (as coined by the talented girlsavage)  Yes, today I have packed my bags and moved into Fortyville.  I've already had a look around the joint and it looks OK from here.  Bacon and nutella for breakfast, lunch with my husband (without kids!), and the promise of ice cream.

I took advantage of my birthday status this morning and worked a little more on a project I've had in the works.  I hope to have it finished soon so I can show you.


I also had a chance to work on more mossy brooches yesterday.  Some are already spoken for, but there will be a few in my shop early next week. 


(aloha!)

I hope you all have a wonderful Sunday.  I'll think of you while I'm eating my er...sundae.  :D

  3. Happy Birthday

    I live in Fiftyville, and frankly, I've enjoyed aging. Not the old knees or the extra pounds that have joined me as I age, but the way age clarifies priorities... My midlife crisis prompted me to open my Etsy shop and do what I love instead of what I should.

  8. Bonne Fete!...40 what a wonderful age says the 46 yr old - who by the way has children aged 4 & 6...40 hmmm that would explain why all the questioning of your life has been going on. Lisa 40 is the most magical wonderful time of your life. I can actually promise you that your world will only get better with every day - and my gawd woman look at how your creativity has been blossoming!

  14. Fortyville: stay a while amid its ancient charms. ;) But srsly, it's no bad place - I'm five years ahead of you. Why should we be ruled by arbitrary numbers anyway? Happy birthday, Lisa!

  32. Welcome to the neighborhood, youngun. I've been here four good years now, and I've settled in (in every way). Takes a while to get used to the place, but once you've accepted the changed landscape, it's not so bad. :)

    Happy belated birthday!
