How I did it: I took lessons thorughout my childhood. I was not a natural player to begin with, but I developed that natural feeling through the years. My teacher would NOT let me move on from a song until it was nearly perfect. It drove me nuts but I appreciate it now. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I found a website with instructions for measuring your face to determine its true shape, because trying to guess is too hard. Turns out I have an "inverted diamond," or (in less flattering words) a pear shape. I was bummed about having a big lower face but when I googled my options there were lots of cute haircuts that were designed to balance things out. I got one that was similar to the "Rhianna" or kind of like Goldie Hawn's … Read how I did it…
How I did it: I spent a lot of time on thisisblythe.com looking at pictures, reading entries, and researching the differences between all the different dolls. It was overwhelming at first but it developed into an obsessive quest. Some of my favorites were eliminated by high cost, but there are dolls under $100. In the end I decided on a Hello Harvest, which is one of the "cheaper" models. (Cost is usually determined by whether or not the doll was … Read how I did it…
I labeled it “not worth it” but that’s just me personally. I found that the supplies were too expensive for my budget and what I ended up with was usually not as nice looking as what I’d hoped for – I don’t think I’m really precise enough for a craft like jewelry making.
However, people who are good at it make some beautiful stuff and I wouldn’t want to discourage anyone from making it. I did at least learn to repair jewelry, which has come in handy.
I was hiking with my dad in the Smokies. We saw a small bear just off the path. It wasn’t paying much attention to any of the hikers; just minding its own business burrowing around. We did not wander from the path (VERY foolish to do otherwise) but just snapped a quick picture and walked the OPPOSITE direction of the bear. It wasn’t a great picture, but the important thing was to have proof and not be dead :)
I find I am much more motivated to clean if I decorate the cleaned room as my reward. It makes sense because as I clean out clutter, I organize and find things with which to decorate – things I forgot I had! I am going for an autumn/nature theme in my living room and nearly have it all cleaned/organized/decorated. It is so nice to be working my way closer to having a home that is refreshing and relaxing rather than stressful. Next up: kitchen, then bedroom, then bathrooms.
