So what is the best way to keep up with a blog? I swear I'm always reminding myself to go and post but for some reason I never make it here. How do you guys keep up? Is it your followers that help you keep going? Is it the excitement in being able to share a new creation? What in the world is it?

You would think since I love to write I would make an honest effort to make it here as least every other day. But hey, that just hasn't been the case.

Anyway, all that matters is that I'm here now. And ready to show another creation. Let me see which one I will add. Hmmm....Hold on! Wait a minute...Let me check my files.

Maybe I should go create something new, take a picture, and scan it in. Decisions, Decisions.
I can't create as long as I'm laying in bed, now can I?

Hey, I think it will be easier to post what's available first and add the new stuff as I go along.

There...
Since Easter is near I decided to add a cute little bunny I created about a year ago but never shared anywhere. Now how cute is he?

Where o Where did I find that? What cartridge does this cutie come from? I wish my memory was as sharp as it was years ago but hey it's not so I may as way stop dreaming. 

Well I did it. I actually posted today. Now if I can just remind myself somehow to do it daily, or at least every other day.

I also need to know how to find followers.

If you're reading this...welcome. Thanks for Hopping by to say HI.

High Five Friday

Wow Friday almost got away from me. I knew I should have blogged while I was at work but I kept putting it off and here I am at 9:19 pm updating my blog.

Well today went by without a craft being created but I did send out a encouragement poem. Today's title was "The thief broke in"

I went to bed and was fast asleep. All was quiet, there wasn't a peep. Then all 
of a sudden out of nowhere, a window broke, and he was there. Standing before 
me, as I sat in my bed. I pinched myself, was I dead?  I wasn't dead but he was 
here. I should have been scared, but I had no fear. I stared at him n he stared 
at me. I wiped my eyes so I could see. In the flesh stood the man a red. Again I 
questioned, "was I dead" He laughed and smirked, and gave a grin. I saw for 
myself the ruler of sin. He jumped on my bed and said let it go.  What was he 
talkn bout, I didn't know. "Give up on Jesus, he said to me. That man can't 
truly set you free. I can give you all you dream of. There is more, I can give 
than unconditional Love" I stared, then lauged, at what he had said. He had 
upset me, so I jumped from my bed. I immediately went to battle with that Thief. 
He was trying to Steal my Belief. Soon we wrestled, so he tied me in chains. No 
matter what he did, my Faith did not change. Said he'd make me wiser, but I knew 
that trick. When I told him bout Adam n Eve he changed real quick. He went on 
bout me and all my mistakes. But no matter what he tried I would not break. He 
went on to make me promises like riches and wealth. He even said he'd could give 
me Perfect Health. He said he would be with me wherever I go. It was at this 
point, I told him "NO" "I am satisfied with Jesus Christ. For me, Jesus gave HIS 
LIFE. For me his precious blood was shed. He's yet alive, He's not dead. Jesus 
can give me, all those things too, so why would I take them from you? He's my 
provider and my protection. If I call n ask, he gives me direction. So go back 
thief, from which you came. My heart is fixed, God knows my name. He won't 
leave, nor forsake me, that is fact. So you can stop you liar, quit the act. He 
is my everything my all n all. He's on the mainline, whenever I call.  and when 
it comes to Love, unconditional is true. That being said this conversation is 
thru. Go away now so I can rest. I faithfully Believe my Saviour knows best. 

So my message for today is basically, "Stick to what you Believe" no matter what you are offered. We have to learn to stand for something to keep from falling for anything.

I truly enjoy writing and crafting. Since I've tossed and turned for the last three hours maybe I should get up and go create something great. I have no shortage of paper, cricut cartridges, and ideas. I just simply need to get off my butt and get busy. Once I get to the table the mojo flows usually. And I should really get a lot done since my grand babies are asleep and the house is quiet.

WELL lets see what I come up with today. BRB....with pics...

Encourage Another

I feel a need to get my Blog moving. If for nothing more than to encourage another through poetry or my many paper craft creations. (try saying that three times fast LOL) Again and Again I think about the variety of things people are goin thru these days and I can't do anything but offter them encouragement as they are going through.

I enjoy sharing words of encouragement with my family and friends but I want to share it with a much larger audience. So many people can use that push to continue on despite their circumstance. Heck, I can use it as much as the next guy.

I plan on using my crafts as inspiration that leads to motivation to keep moving and staying busy as best you can. Worrying and Complaining gets us nowhere. Why not just CREATE. It doesn't have to be anything big. I create in many ways. Through writing children stories and poetry and crafting with my Cricut I am able to stay busy and that way stay sane.

From this day forward I plan on Encouraging Another each day with something I created in hopes that it will inspire those who stop by to Create as well.

Well I can't think of anything else to say so I will end this now before I start repeating myself over and over.

Those that are goin through Right Now...This Too Shall Pass!
