Halloween Pictures and a New Piece!
I finally got around to uploading the pictures from Halloween! Better late than never right? I made a half tutu for my peacock tail and then I created a headpiece to match, I'm really happy with how the costume turned out!
I also added another piece to my Etsy shop today! I've been hard at work making holiday gifts making earrings, bracelets and necklaces! Crafting galore!
My sister came home for the 30th, I always enjoy getting to spend time with her!

My newest Etsy piece!
Hope your day is sunny and bright!

Who are you?
I've reached 66 followers!! I'm so incredibly excited!
We're busy here at the house cleaning and are about to start putting up winter decor! (Yes, I realize it's early but I'm having my birthday party in a couple of weeks and Thanksgiving's a few days later and it's so much work that we decided to try to get a move on this year!)
I'm pretty excited that I have only two classes this week, Wednesday's Veterans Day and tomorrow's a teacher work day so I have almost an entire week off!
That time will be devoted to cleaning and tackling the extra homework that my professors decided it would be fun to tack on! (A relaxing week indeed!)
So, as I work the days away, I ask all you new followers this-Who are you!?

27 Days of Thankful! Day 2!
What am I thankful for?
Day 2!
Doctors
For those of you who've been with me for a while, you know how much I struggle with medical issues (for those of you who don't, feel free to hit "The Medical Side of Me" button to the left).
The last two or three weeks have gotten scary with health issues.
I keep having these "spells" where I get incredibly dizzy (to the point where I'm running into walls) and nauseous and within a few minutes break out in a rash.
I also have severe "brain fog" where I have trouble keeping up in conversations and classes.
I went to the neurologist today and got another "Well, you should disgard everything the last doctor told you, I can't help you,I don't know what's wrong, I don't know who to send you but hope things get better for you, have a nice day."
I left in tears (there's only so many times a person can take hearing that) but returned home to a phone call from my favorite doctor who made an appointment for me to see him on Friday (he's hours away from where I live) and reminded me that no matter how difficult my case is, he's not going to give up searching for an answer.
I so dearly love this man!
Happy Monday!

27 Days of Thankful! Day 1!
The idea is to post something big or small that you're thankful for each day, leading up to Thanksgiving!
Day 1
November.
Indeed I am thankful for the month of November.
November brings many things, my birthday, my aunt's death anniversary, the colors in the changing leaves of fall and most of all Thanksgiving, the reminder to look around and realize how much love I have, how many wonderful memories I've made and how thankful I am that I've come into my own and have finally begun to embrace who I really am.
