Some things are just better covered up... especially strawberries covered in chocolate, lol! I hope you are having a wonderful February, and that the packing goes along as planned. Never an easy task! We don't have a TV, so we won't be watching the Olympics, although I enjoy hearing about them. We like the quiet simple life here :) Have a lovely restful Sunday evening!Marilyn @ MountainTopSpicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00600290895531484438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7869212964119628808.post-66385416341917164382018-02-10T12:53:22.844-08:002018-02-10T12:53:22.844-08:00Chocolate covered strawberries!!

I LOVE the snow and almost everything to do with winter. :) And, congrats on getting started on your craft room! I love fly lady's method of setting a timer and only doing what you can in a certain period of time, so as to not become overwhelmed.

I lived in Alabama until about 6 months ago when I picked up and moved to Colorado.<br /><br />I feel your pain about the phone camera not being able to capture beautiful moments. I've seen some spectacular sunrises here in CO, but my phone just doesn't capture the colors. Hopefully, I can splurge on a good digital camera at the end of the year.<br /><br />Have a great rest of the week.Shannon M. aka "Auntie"https://www.blogger.com/profile/18176249631680504508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7869212964119628808.post-13760997282104490332018-02-08T07:13:09.652-08:002018-02-08T07:13:09.652-08:00I knew you were going to be moving to TN, but I di...I knew you were going to be moving to TN, but I didn't know you were going to be living in a motor home. I must have missed that post....is that true? Sounds like you will be having some adventures!<br /><br />I had to laugh about the "swim-suit body." I actually had a swimwear body at one time, MANY years ago, but definitely not anymore!<br /><br />Continued good luck on the packing and purging!<br /><br />Hugs,<br />CarolAn Oasis in the Deserthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03775583025686145582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7869212964119628808.post-1747497356067924152018-02-08T06:11:52.582-08:002018-02-08T06:11:52.582-08:00Such exciting times in the beginning stages of you...Such exciting times in the beginning stages of your new home, Debby!! I'll bet it's hard for you to know it's about to come true. <br />I love chocolate covered strawberries!! Also, your salad is almost identical to one that I eat everyday (except I use chopped cabbage nowadays because cabbage stays fresh for so long!). <br />Enjoy your time away to Tennessse and safe travels. kitty@ Kitty's Kozy Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02803962513834013589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7869212964119628808.post-67243093109247466622018-02-08T04:39:10.544-08:002018-02-08T04:39:10.544-08:00LOL here we say if he sees his shadow and that mea...LOL here we say if he sees his shadow and that means it's six more weeks of winter, that's a GOOD thing since it seems like winter lasts until May around here haha!

I should be packing, just to downsize. Why is it I have no motivation for downsizing in the wintertime. I guess we do tend to hibernate up here. Have a great rest of your week.

God was showing off a little wasn't He? I know what you mean about making a small dent! Mercy I felt that way trying to clean out my She-Shed so I can only imagine what you are feeling my friend! On to joining you today. <br /><br /> 1. February can be a little bit tricky given the weather and the winter and the whatnot. I read a list (here) of things you can do to make your February brighter which included-start planning your next trip, take more baths, make your own chocolate covered strawberries, and exercise in preparation for swimsuit season. Anything on the list you might try? Which suggestion on the list appeals to you most? Tell us something not on the list that helps make your February brighter.<br /><br />Well I can tell you what's not on my Feb. list! Exercising to get in a bathing suit! LOL! My little Nana bathing suit I HOPE fits from last year. If not, I'll just a new one. HA! I love baths and every now and then I indulge in a long bubble bath. I haven't done that in a while. Might be just what the doctor has ordered for Feb. But DANG those strawberries look good!<br /><br />2. Tell us about something you've seen or done recently that you'd say was 'super'?<br />Well, I actually made headway in She-Shed and I am here to tell you I felt SUPER cause I can now walk in the shed! <br /><br />3. Best thing you ate in a 'bowl' last week?<br />Shrimp and cheese grits! Oh yeah! <br /><br />4. Something you're 'cheering' for right now?<br />Right now I am doing lots of cheering on Saturday mornings while watching my grandson play basketball. He is so much fun to watch.<br /><br />5. The Winter Olympics begin Friday, February 9th in Pyeong Chang, South Korea. On a scale of 1-10 (with 10 being all in and 1 being no interest whatsoever) how interested are you in the games? Which event do you most want to see (you'll find a list here).<br /> I am probably a 3. And like you my interest would be ice skating. I am becoming just like my precious Motherinlove who went to be with the Lord some years ago. She made good intentions on doing certain things but if something came up better she done that! LOL! THAT IS ME! <br /><br />6. Insert your own random thought here.<br />Kick off tonight for our new class on the Armor of God by Priscilla Shirer. I am praying for God to show Himself in a mighty way. <br /><br />Hugs and blessings, Cindy<br /><br />Creations By Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06652249357420269173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7869212964119628808.post-967138169705513282018-02-07T08:48:35.704-08:002018-02-07T08:48:35.704-08:00The last picture made me smile.

I don't have the Etsy shop open yet, but I have started and have begun listing items. Hopefully in a few days it will be up and running; meanwhile, I'll keep listing things. Very small steps, but steps that must be taken and I have to start somewhere, as do you. Now you have!
