It's Almost October!?!

So time has clearly gotten away from me.

I'm going to say it's because I started picking up lots more hours at work. I have been feeling better and I have had to make up for the money I didn't make while I was sick. Sometimes I really hate that my job pays so little. Most times I just forget how much I am getting paid all together! ( I think that's a good thing) Until the bills come in and I'm seeing negatives! Blech.

So I decided that I am going to work on a ETSY shop. I am going to sell my baked goods and some handmade things...like coasters and possibly coin purses. The hardest part is using a lot of product to get pictures and everything because all of that costs money. Also, everything is going to be made to order (except the coasters and such). So hopefully I can handle this.

I am also selling my famous pumpkin bread and already have a few orders! It's not going to help much, but it makes me excited to have my name associated with it! Here is a picture of my first batch of the season! Well...maybe just a loaf of my first batch!

YUMMY!

Dave and I are totally diving head first into this house buying business. I know it is a little crazy. I barely make over minimum wage and he makes about $6 more than I do. But we have to start somewhere. Renting is not helping us, and it's causing us a ton of stress! I just want a place of my own. One that I can be creative in and paint walls and have a big kitchen!!! It's time... lol We have a meeting with the mortgage people on Tuesday to get pre-approved and then we will go from there. We already have our relator set up too!

Finally, it's that time of year again! We may not get the weather of fall or the changing leaves like up north, but we do get PUMPKINS!!! Ones that are shaped like Mickey Mouse!


As much as I am longing to go to Mickey's Not So Scary, I don't think we are going to be able to this year. It makes me really sad. They only discounted tickets for CMs for September and Dave and I's schedules are not working with the dates. It's depressing because I heard they changed some things around. Maybe they will open dates in October and if they do, I'll be the first to line up!

Hope you all are getting ready for a beautiful fall! All of you lovelies up north, I am really jealous. Fall/Winter are my favorite times of year!!
