My sweet Boda is interested in a trampoline park party this year and I am humbly asking for donations -or- Etsy orders (direct sales would be fine also) to cover this cost 🙌🥰🙌

Venmo: venmo.com/u/MosDefSteph

Etsy: happytipipeople.etsy.com

Birthday is Sept 22nd so I'm hoping to book this ASAP 😌

My son and I have been going to the local "cheap" theater all summer. They've been showing $2 kids movies & its been one of my favorite activities this summer. In the same strip mall is a cell phone repair shop & they were able to replace the lens on my phone's camera and *poof* fixed!! ✨😊✨
Quick photo of a few crochet hanging plants I've been working on with the caption "Got my camera fixed" the lens casing covering my camera has gotten way scuffed up recently and the photos had become way fuzzy. This is great because I'm not in the market for a new phone and now I can take good photos of my bracelets again 🙌

At one point I was hopeful to achieve a goal of 30 sales in 30 days for August, but that has fallen super short 😅

Just activated a small sale to entice folks:

Screenshot of my August Etsy stats. 437 views, 179 visits & 5 sales so far 🙂 I'm thankful for each and every sale, but with needing more of am income to support my household, I was definitely hoping for more 💞 One of my newest styles, Rose Quartz, Selenite & Green Moonstone.

Thank you, ever so much 💞
Old photo of some bracelet styles laid out in a little basket tray. A majority of these styles are no longer available, so I'm not going to describe them specifically - what I would like to describe is that I make all my bracelets by hand, I use genuine gemstone beads & high quality leather cord. Mostly I make small batch styles, making their quantity limited ✨

Picture of the school supply list I'll be needing for my kiddo. Its not huge, thankfully I stocked up on/ am reusing some of the things on here, but what I have left is shown. (3 inch white binder, 2 packs colored pencils, 1 package loose leaf paper, dry erase markers, vinyl folders w/pockets, highlighters, kleenex, pencils & notebooks) receiving a little extra for these things will also allow me to restock in preparation for next year. 😌 thank you for your consideration 😌

#CatsOfBlueSky #Cats #Caturday but on a Thursday. Read the #AltText for a bit of a story 💞
This is Rocket (a tabby cat) who's enjoying a leisurely morning on the bench at the kitchen table. Its cool where we are in Iowa and we have the windows open today, he likes listening to the birds. This is Meowski Lebowski (a tuxedo cat) who has decided to shove himself into one of my yarn containers. Kind of giving side eye here, he was actually trying yo figure out how to roll over and expose his belly, while staying *in* the container. He did not succeed. This is Nermal (small grey cat), our oldest kitty, who was sleeping in the basement. But after taking photos of the other 2 and going downstairs, they decided to follow to make sure I wasn't feeding them... She is visibly bothered by their sudden appearance. She doesn't really like the other 2. Tolerates them at best.

Making these little hanging plants - the first 2 have already been claimed, but if you'd like to preorder or custom order some, lmk 🧶🌱🌻

Crochet hanging plant. The pot is made from a burnt orange color, very close to a true terra cotta feel. 4 vines of green leaves hang down around it with a yellow and orange makeshift sunflower on top (it just resembles a sunflower, but sits directly on top of the brown soil)

Do you ever find strength & wisdom in memes? 🤔

#New #Mindshift #Meme #Resist
Text meme. 1st part reads: "Changing my belief system from 'this is the hill I'll die on' to 'this is the hill I'll kill you on' has done absolute wonders for me 10/10 do recommend Reply reads: "You really gonna die on that hill?" <italics> "Someone is."
