Happy Tuesday!

It seeems like Skylar had a wonderful birthday yesterday!  I treated her and her entire family to Mexican food. That was what she chose for her birthday meal.  I love that Skylar’s dad and mom and her mom’s husband do things together. It makes it so nice for Skylar!  You can see some pics of Skylar through the years on yesterday’s post. And thanks so much for all her birthday wishes on my page and on my profile!

I was a busy girl yesterday.  First I worked on my Manic Monday Penny Auctions.  That was a lot of work!  I need to start working on those early and scheduling them.  I don’t like tasks that take a long time. Need to work on one listing per day and then it will feel more like just pure fun.

Then I switched gears and worked on another Quilt Block Party Embellishment.  I hate it! LOL  This is one of those series I will dread from beginning to end. But the funny thing is that once I set out to do a series like that, I WILL COMPLETE IT!  I will.  I just will!  I’ll probably hate most of it, but it will at least make for some funny viewing for those of you who love to watch me struggle.  Enjoy!

After that embellishing fiasco, I ended my day by reading some of my Online Dating Comments.  I needed a good laugh and I got one!  Laughter sure does help a headache!

As for today, I really want to work on another easy quilt block.  I just love that series and feel I deserve to treat myself to something I love to do after the stress of yesterday.  And I did indeed grab the tote filled with cotton from my cellar yesterday, so maybe a quick video so we can look at those treasures together.  I also need to hit Roger’s either today or tomorrow, so there will be a car vlog soon.

What I Have on eBay:  I listed my Penny Auctions with Free Shipping yesterday for Manic Monday!  I have a few quilt blocks, a large scarf, some fabric panels and a quarter yard of Debbie Mumm fabric up for grabs.  Of course, I still have fabric listed too.  Please check out my new stuff!

10 Free eBooks (plus free music):  I have the newest free ebook list here and also free music downloads here!

Yesterday’s Walmart.com Deal: I found a great deal on this 5 Piece Dory Bed Set!  It’s on CLEARANCE for $23.50 (was $39.98). Great savings!  Not sure if it’s still available.  You need to check!

On Derrick’s blog: I’m loving this Men’s Alloy Genuine Leather Bracelet that Derrick has on his site.  I just checked and the price has actually dropped a bit since he posted it!  But price can go up again at any time, so hurry!

Youtube Analytics Mini Update: For those of you who will be asking me when I will post my mid month update, I know today is the 15th, but in youtube land, it’s still the 13th. They run 2 days behind. I usually post the update on the 17th or 18th. Hang in there! As for a teaser… this looks like it’s going to be my best mid month update so far! And here’s an actual stat for you, so far for Aug (thru the 13th) I have gained 1915 new subscribers! I should for sure hit 2000 by the time it updates through the 15th.  That blows my mind!!!

Have a great Tuesday!  Darlene xoxo
