Sometimes thinking and
dreaming of what to create next isn’t enough.
Sewing

in Marty, South Dakota
Creating
Veteran’s quilts
Creating
Memory Quilts for a friend
Making
walker bags
Making
aprons
Preparing
for an upcoming Christmas Bazaar
One would think it’s enough.
But it isn’t.
My mind races while thinking
of all those things going on around me in which I have no control.
I must STOP fretting and worrying about other’s problems along with all the hatred in this world. It’s not doing me any good. In fact, it’s causing me to have issues I certainly don’t need!
Like…
I
catch myself clenching my teeth together ~ hard! I have to consciously tell
myself to relax.
I
catch myself holding my breath. I must tell myself to just breathe. Over and
Over.
I have recently discovered a
very relaxing thing to ponder. It seems to be working!!! It is…
Keeping Chickens!
Yes!
I’ve subscribed to numerous
contributors and watched BUNCHES of youtube videos while in Dallas over the past couple of weeks. I’ve pinned
on Pinterest a lot of ideas on this and that. I found & joined two Facebook
groups about Keeping Chickens. And, I have read many blog articles on Keeping
Chickens.
BUT, the BIGGEST plus of all –
Bud (DH) is on board with the idea of us Keeping Chickens!!!
We’ve selected the area for
the permanent coop and run! Making plans. Studying what/when to do this and
that. Preparing!
Come next spring…
No matter what I’m doing,
what I’m sewing on, this is what I now turn my mind to focus upon when the
negative tries to enter! It seems to be working things out much better for me!
I’ve created another blog
site about our Journey in the Yolk Yard – so I won’t bore you here!
