I’ve been a bit preoccupied with my latest, top secret project. Yes, it’s a new medium and a new shop but I won’t tell you more than that until the big unveiling which should occur around mid March assuming all goes as planned. We shall see!
It seems I missed last week’s Friday Finds post… and I didn’t have anyone lined up for this week so I’m just going to show you some of the beautiful and interesting things I’ve stumbled across recently in the midst of babbling about recent events. Photos are linked to the relevant shops.
Speaking of shops, Foxglove Studios on Etsy broke 1000 hearts in February. It heppened rather suddenly and much to my surprise. In fact, I had intended to make a small event of it but it snuck up on me. BIG thanks to all the “hearters”!
Jason received his Arizona driver’s license a couple of weeks ago. He was extremely happy about it. I told him it would be easy because they obviously hand the things out like candy based on the way people drive around here. Apparently, the driving test in the UK is pretty hard and consists of more than a quick lap around the block. Who knew? My one attempt to drive on the left side of the road was a failure and resulted in me never being allowed to try it again. LOL
The big guy is still looking for employment. The little bit he’s done at my office and the one on campus have been nice but certainly aren’t predictable or ongoing. (In case you live in the Tucson area and need help with your computer, please let us know. Jay would be more than happy to help and won’t rip you off like Geek Squad!)
Our cats seem to have finally found a balance after two years of cohabitating. Lily now occasionally, randomly attacks Pumber instead of always being the incredibly dramatic victim. It’s really funny. He will give her a WIDE berth and move very slowly when he thinks she’s in one of her moods. He still corners her once in a while but not every day like he used to. It almost looked like she was trying to play with him yesterday… almost.
The teenager, who shall remain nameless, doesn’t want Mom to discuss her publicly so I can’t share the biggest challenges we’ve had of late. Suffice it to say, parenting is not for the faint of heart. Whatever you’ve heard about having teenage kids, it’s not true. The truth is much worse! 
Hope you all have a good, relaxing weekend. I’m going to give it my best shot.
