I never thought I would say this, but I'm hardly on the computer anymore! That's right folks! Little ole me, that's been glued to a computer the last 8+years is breaking away!!! Don't get me wrong, I get on to check my email at least every other day, but that's it. I'm not chatting away with (my only) two friends, bouncing around on random websites, reading blogs, none of that! I'll get on either early in the morning before the girls are up, or late at night when I SHOULD be sleeping.
Don't think I've fallen off the face of the earth .. I was actually trying to crochet as MANY items for my etsy shop as possible. I'm going to be doing a sale kickoff August 10th and I want a variety of items available. I have tapped into sewing a bit too .. I'm a little rusty at it (it's been 10+yrs since I even TOUCHED a sewing machine) but it's like riding a bike...you never really forget. I've got 26 items stacked up next to me, waiting to be pressed and sewn, the pattern is cut out already, but gotta sew together. I'm not going to put them on my shop until after vacation, possible the eve of my "sale". It's not really a sale, it's more of a donation process I guess. My prices will remain the same, but I will donate 50% of the sales to NTDs charities. I need to email a certain someone with some details and get a couple ideas from her to finish things up. I'm working on an afghan as well that I will be donating to her for a giveaway as well if she's interested.
I've decided to go to church today, with or without Bryan. I've been using him as an excuse and crutch long enough. Yes, it's a "ways away" going to the Gilbert campus rather than the Mesa campus just up the street from us, but I like the Gilbert location, PLUS my brother works there, and obviously attends that campus. I'll have a bigger chance of sitting with him and my sister in law rather than sitting alone until I meet a few other people. I hate that I've let so much time go since I've last gone to church. I haven't even gone for Christmas Eve or Easter services. Despite Abigail being 7 days old on Easter, it wouldn't have stopped me from going. Well, that's it for now .. Emily is waking up in her crib. In two weeks, it will be a toddler bed. I can NOT wait!!

Hey, is that 'certain someone' me? hehehe :)
Wow, Ashley! You've been busy and I sure do appreciate that you plan on donating for NTD. Of course I will advertise this on my blog and that is so awesome you are making an afghan to giveaway!! You're so awesome. :D
That's great you decided to go to church. I don't blame you for wanting to go to the one that is farther away. Being by yourself can be a little awkward sometimes!
Hey Ashley! That's great that you are so enthusiastic about going back to church. It's a great place to re-energize yourself after a long week. :O) Love you girl!
