Saturday morning: my Banker husband is getting yet another tattoo, my brother is in Vegas getting his credit card stolen, and then there's me...making chalkboards in my garage.
You know, just a typical Saturday.
I've been working this weekend on tying up loose ends on my Winter Etsy line and getting it all photographed and listed. And I'm done...hooray!
What is it about life that sometimes you have absolutely nothing going on and then just like THAT you're super busy? Is there an in-between stage where you're kinda busy, kinda not...just right?
All of the sudden I'm making plans, getting ready for visitors, filling in dates on my calendar.
We are so excited to have a stream of visitors coming starting in 10 days here and there until April. This is exciting and stressful all at once, do you get me??
The house will be clean that first day of their visit and then it'll be downhill from there. I'll have an itinerary of fun stuff to do and then when they leave my kids will think I'm super boring.
Life is all about balance. Balance and contentment. If we are busy, we want to not be so busy. If we are not busy, we are bored. I want to be content in all things. A work in progress is what I am.
And speaking of work, and if you are a fan of plaids and felts and coziness, go see my latest Winter Line in my shop...I'd be so happy if you did :)
Have a great week...busy or not so busy :)

The shop is looking good...you've been working! Hey btw, I am married to a tattoo loving banker too...xo
Such cute-creative fun, Alicia - love your styling in all the pics. And so happy for all the company you're about to enjoy, though I understand the wistfulness for that in between stage we always seem to pass over - it's always either feast or famine round here too. Ah well, enjoy the feast!
It's all so purdy. Had to get another banner...love the hearts. Curious about your brother...what happened??
