Well, hello... I have been doing some more "creative financing" with my budget again. :-) How these things get me, I am not sure, but I keep working on getting better at these "issues" in my goal process. haha At my age, I will probably die still battling them.
I needed some butane for my crafting plans (metal clay). In looking for the costs and other information, I discovered other supplies I have been wanting for some time. I talked myself into getting some of them. I'm not sorry for the purchase, but sorry I had to juggle my funds again. I really just spent money I already had committed to these things... or something like them.
Now I have to wait until they get here, and I can try them with the projects I planned.
I made a new version of my paper mache "paste" and tried it out. Not sure it is going to work as planned. When it dries I will know more. Right now some of the paper seems to be falling off the base I am trying to attach it to. I may have to apply the newspaper in a different way. I will try that tomorrow.
My little craft sewing machine for kids is out of it's storage space, and near being used... FINALLY!! :-) I have to find the instruction booklet to thread the thing again... and then I can try it out on some of the fabrics I have waiting for it. It feels like I am moving forward, but the movement seems so small. I am thinking about design options, still, so I am always working toward the future I hope to achieve.
Finished my black jelly beans today... and wanted a whole new bag of them to keep on eating! I love licorice flavor, so black jelly beans are like a huge splurge for me! :-) Food... it means so much!!
What a day... I keep wondering what GOD is up to... how it will all turn out... who will suffer most... how to make things different... I wonder about a lot of things.
I use to say I was a one-woman think tank... :-) ... no funding though. Sad.... You are welcome to donate to my cause... but you won't get a tax deduction. haha
Time to go. I just wanted to check in. I didn't finish my online order until about 11 pm... such a massive commitment of time I didn't want to spend. I hope it was worth it. (One of the items I purchased was to shred up paper for making paper pulp... totally dedicated to crafting. I can use it for mixing plaster for other projects, too... when I get to that point. I hope it works for these plans!)
Until next time,
May the GOD I love and believe in find a way to help me through the things I don't like about my current situation... may He watch over me and the ones I love and pray for... may He provide and protect as only GOD can do. Amen.
In Christ,
Deborah Martin
