So I do believe I owe it to everyone to explain where I have been....
It has been a REALLY rough few months for me, so without going into too much detail, all of the stress has caused several health issues and depression which I am trying to bounce back from.
Two more of my pretty girls were snagged by coyotes which has broken my heart.
I have started back on a few projects slowly but surely, I am trying to get back to my healthy self with my peaceful mind.
My ex husband moved back into the craft room which means it has gone back to being a guest room. So all of my crafting things have been shoved to a tight little corner where I can't get to most of it.
*Sad face*
I am currently working on both of my daughters rooms.
This is about as far as I have gotten and taken photos of thus far. I promise a big reveal hopefully some time soon!!
I had plans to create my own magazine, but once everything started taking it's toll on me I just couldn't get the energy up to put my all into it that I felt it deserved. So for now I am letting that go, but I do hope to get back to it at some point. I still feel that there are so many of you that do so much and do it so well that you deserve to be featured in a magazine! ♥
We had snow dumped on us this morning...
How is the weather in your neck of the woods?
Also last but not least, I am planning a rather large indoor yard sale {SERIOUS need of downsizing around here} so if you are local and interested in coming please email me at thevintagefarmhouse@gmail.com for more info!!

Pattie, I've been trying to get a hold of you on FB! I have something for you and need to come by sometime soon! I found the bed on Craigslist, it was $75 and I sold her old bed for $100!!!!
DeleteSorry to hear about your chickens. It's real nice here in Texas. No jackets or sweaters today. Hope you get to do the magazine thing soon. Enjoy your blog. Judy
ReplyDeleteSorry about your chickens. Welcome back. Praying that everything goes well for you, and that you get back into the zone. The bed is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry you are having a tough time of it. I hope there is peace in your near future!
ReplyDeleteBe well. Take time for you. Let your heart have time to heal. Although I've not experienced depression, I have experienced loss. Time truly is the greatest healer.
ReplyDeleteMuch love, Lisa
You know, I call it the January Blues, although sometimes changes take longer than a month. But I wrote about it in my blog this week. Check it out. Maybe it will help! Also, remember that this too shall pass!

Sorry, I did not know you were not well, ex husband in the guest room, that would depress me! That is a pretty pink for the girls room, can't wait to see it done. Oh and our weather I live in Orlando, sunny and warm, maybe you need to hop a plane to get your mojo back!
