It seems that I only write a post once every four years these days. Regardless if that’s accurate or not, I just had to post something today to have a date stamp of February 29th on the blog. 😉 So here’s a gratuitous car selfie in lieu of any actual content: Happy Mathematical Construct Day […]

So…um, this is awkward. I’ve been meaning to write an entry for awhile now and it looks like it’s been more than two months since I last did. Whoops. And here we are not only in 2015, but midway through the second month of 2015. Yeah sorry about that. I did get around to making […]

I ordered the Disney Infinity Marvel Super Heroes starter set from the Shop Marvel website for $39.99 on November 26th. Christmas gift for my guy. I add an Iron Man cell phone case as filler to get free shipping. A few days later, I also buy a couple extra figures on amazon during a sale. […]

The holidays start showing up in store decorations months in advance these days, yet it seems we STILL manage to get ourselves overwhelmed trying to figure out the perfect gift every year! And despite “Christmas creep” taking over Thanksgiving and even Halloween, it still normally blindsides us. My first suggestion: Avoid the mall and mass […]

Happy Halloween from the FLÖÖF! (No kitties were harmed in the making of my fluffy orange cat wearing a witch hat. She was highly annoyed but not injured! LOL)

Today is my 37th birthday! 🙂 Weeeeeeeee! My Mom had this tradition when I was little where she’d have me stand next to my cherry tree and hold a sign each year on my birthday. Here’s me in 1980 on my 3rd birthday: And here’s me last week. (I was having a good hair and […]

2013 went out with a whoosh as it flew past me and my intentions of posting more frequently in the blog. The second half of November and all of December became unbelievably busy and there was simply no free time available for updating, despite the fact I really did intend to many times. So here’s […]

Holiday Wishes is a fun idea where you post your wishlist – anything from cards to pipe dreams like a car – and then you go through lists other people have posted and see if you can fulfill any of their wishes. I’ve been doing it on a community on Livejournal for years and years […]

HOLIDAY SHIPPING DEADLINES I know people don’t want to think about Holiday & Christmas shopping yet. BUT…as everything is handmade by my two very human hands, there is more lead time required than grabbing something made in China from Wal-Mart. Especially factoring in shipping. INTERNATIONAL ORDERS REQUIRE THE MOST TIME. International orders shipping first class […]

Here we are and it’s already March. And I realize my intentions to actually sit down and write out a blog entry in my oh-so-neglected blog last month not only never came to pass, but I didn’t even come close. Handful of photo posts….and that’s about it. Sheesh. Just seems like I’ve been so busy […]

With the busyness of the holidays, followed by my Mom’s fall the day after Christmas (and subsequent days in the hospital and fractured arm…) I only just got to check the post office box for the first time since mid-December. And I had some cards (sadly, including one which came back undeliverable) and some packages! […]
The month of December went by in a complete rush this year because of being so busy in my shop. I had a record 103!! orders for the month of December alone! (And many of those had more than one item in the order!!) It meant though, that I didn’t have as much time as […]
