The local public school did not give kids the day off from school for Columbus Day. I gave the Four Princesses the day off. Well, at least they had a day off from logging into their online courses. They still watched educational programs, did chores around the house, went to soccer practice and Girl Scouts. I don't think that there is really a such a thing as a day off in our house.
I think that the biggest part of my home based business is my crocheted hats and beanies. People from all over the place will order them from me. I think that's awesome, and I am very grateful. A lot of times, the sale of one hat puts gas in my car or food on our table. The sale of one hat buys at least a week's worth of diapers and wipes. Wages might be higher, but so are prices for everything, and it isn't as worthwhile to work outside the home as one might think. I was one that thought....and lost, so I'm back in the WAHM saddle again, full force. I can DO this. I know I can.
Here are some of the hats that I have made just within the past few days:
Yesterday, I mentioned trying to use up stuff around the house, or trying to find alternative ways to use up stuff that I found no longer useful. We made the giant bubble solution, which was great fun. So much fun, in fact, that we took the bucket of bubble solution to Girl Scouts tonight, to play with while waiting for girls to be picked up at the end of the meeting.
Here is Abbey, helping out at the Critter Oasis Adoption Fair. She was the doggie. I was the mommie:
Maybe tomorrow night, I will tell you all about The Sparklers.
Have a Great Day!
