When life throws you a curveball....


     As soon as the kids started school this year back in late August things just didn't go as I had envisioned. I had hoped to stay on track with posting on YOTUBE and BLOGGER on a regular basis. But it seems that every time I try to schedule my day around things I want to achieve, it ends up just backfiring on me. Being a full time mom means often you're at the beck and call of whatever needs to be done around the house or with the kids. My two are teenagers now and you'd think I'd have more time but they keep me even more busy now than when they were much younger.  I became even further discouraged when Youtube announced major changes coming to their platform next year  that would greatly affect the doll community. For me just barely starting out, I was just devastated. Again knocked down when I'm just getting going. So for now I have decided to put Youtube on hold for the moment.
     As the weeks just continue to fly by and we are now in October. I still have yet to find some proper time for the blog. It can be really stressful to work on storyline when things in real life are just not going great. I can't seem to find a rhythm no matter how hard I try. After having a serious talk with my Husband who has been dealing with some major stress at work, his company is downsizing and making major changes. Which in turn stresses me out as his job is our only source of income. We have both decided it is best that for now I focus on my Etsy Shop and trying to make some money. Since I cannot do a 9-5 job this year, this is my best option. 
     It saddens me to have to shut the blog down again, put things on hold, but things are just not getting better right now, especially financially.  And the looming stress of where my husband's job might take him in the future. I really cannot afford to do what I truly love right now with all this chaos that is my life at the moment. I will keep the blog up for people to read and hopefully at some point I can get back to it. If I can find a rhythm and maybe post once a month I will try but for now this I where I leave it. 
     Thank you all for all of your support, for all your comments, and words of encouragement! I must say 2019 has really been a rough year for my family and I. I just hope I can end it on a bit more of a positive note by helping us get through the end of the year and the holiday season.


God Bless and I'll be back just not sure when

  2. I'm beyond over 2019. It can go kick the biggest rock. I was hoping to start my doll stories this summer, but life threw me into a pit this summer. I've crawled out to get pushed back in this fall. I'm sorry things have been rough with you too. Take your time and do the I'm an "adult and people leave me in charge?" stuff you need to take care of yourself and family.
