If you're happy and you know it….

I'm happy, yes I am.  This week we sold our old store in Canton on the mountain.  We are able to put that money into our new store and our online website at timetothyme.com.  We also opened an ETSY store.  For those of you who have never perused Etsy, I urge you to do so.  It is an awesome site where you can go and order those one-of-a-kind handmade gifts.  This site is designed specifically for people who are crafty and like to make stuff, but have no where to sell it.  If you make anything from Art to Afghans, this is a place that you can easily set up a store and sell your products to the world.  How amazing is that??? They have some very interesting stuff and some downright CRAZY stuff on there.  Some times I just have to SMH.
This has been a year full of ups and downs in my life.  Many more ups than downs. I got to retire from my social work job, do a little traveling, watch both my children find their purpose in life and have a store to sell the products I love to make…namely herbal remedies and soap!  There is nothing more satisfying than making something that somebody else will love and use.  Oh yeah, and I also made a personal store to sell my Art!  Here is a painting I finished today.

I haven't titled this yet, not even sure it is finished.  I had to put it aside to go and make some soap for some AWESOME ladies who ordered off of our website today.  Life is so good…So good!

I have a new little Silky puppy.  She is 5 months old, and she is such a joy to me.  I am unable to travel much anymore due to duties I now have at home, but she makes being in the house all of the time so much more bearable.  Except for the poop….aaahhh, the poop.  When it is cold, she will NOT go outside.  She is a pistol, she sure is.  

but how can you get mad at a face like this? Precious little baby girl.  I named her "Mala", an homage to the mala beads I use to pray with everyday about how thankful I am for this strange, beautiful, weird, crazy life I lead.  

I just want to end this blog by saying thank you to everyone who has placed orders with us this last year and to also let anyone who has not seen our sites the opportunity to get there and browse.  On Etsy you can look up either "timetoherb" or "ZenYogaArt" to look at our sites.  I am in love with them and look at them every hour! LOL  Our website is timetothyme.com. I'm such a happy girl. 

thyme to play with Mala,
