Baking and writing
Well I have been baking a lot these days, plus start writing. It has been fun writing about things that I do in my life. I know that I have the support I need to write. The Baking I have been doing is a lot. Dog treats for our up coming show and I also baked for a funeral gathering which went over nice. I have been trying to make new things too. The weather it been to hot to be out there, so me and the dogs stay in and watch movies when I am not baking.
It been different to watch the Hallmark channel which has Christmas movies in July. There has been a lot going on and I am trying to get back everything that I was doing. I think that I was in a slum and I needed to take a few steps back look at my life and what is important. So I hope my fan of this blog come back because you are going to stay reading about many different things each week. I am getting things in order and finding out what works.
I want to help others and let other know what is helping me get thru the tough times.
Talk later

well it the season to make things with strawberries and I baked 2.
I was so happy when a friend could get me rhubarb because last time we went to Hy-Vee we got a good deal on strawberries. So I made strawberry- rhubarb chunch. Plus I found a recipe for Banana bread with strawberries which I wanted to try. It was easy to make and it was delicious. I don’t eat a lot of the things I bake but I needed to try this bread.
Well if someone would was a recipe that I have made just ask, I am happy to share some of them, some I can’t because I can give away all my secrets.
Enjoy baking, it can bring some sense of therapy for you to create something good. it helps me get through some tough times in my life and helps clarify my thoughts.
Enjoy

I am sorry it has been a couple of weeks. I have a few things going on in my life that I need to take care of. This last week I did meet a couple of nice people during a craft sale I was doing. It is amazing to me the people I meet. You really never know what someone is going through until you talk to them and start to understand other lives. I know that I live with some health issues no one knows unless I talk to them. I can always talk about my chickens and dogs. They are my life and I am not sure I would get through some days without them.
I know when I am baking for these shows I listen to podcasts which are great. I mostly listen to true crime but there are ones that they interview others that have stories to tell. It helps me focus on something else that I am doing. I always make a plan of what I am going to make and each day what my goal is.
I do have those bad days that I just want to just not want to talk to anyone. It is easy to feel like that on some of the days. I do have people that care and check in with me to make sure I am doing fine. Please remember this you don’t know what someone else going through at any give time unless you talk to them or walked in their shoes.
Thank you again
Holiday SeasonHoliday Season
The Holidays are among us and we all are busy with shopping , cleaning, wrapping and planning dinner. I know that each year around this time is one of the hardest times I have to go thru. I lost my mom just before Christmas and her birthday and it has been hard ever since. I know people tell me it will get easier and I don’t see how. The one person I could talk to about anything was my mom and now I don’t have that. I know that I have friends and other family members I can talk to but my mom was different. She loved me for me and it didn’t matter what was going on in our life. She always tries and makes Christmas the best for all of us. I still have the present that I got her that year. I know one year it will be easy for me to get thru the holidays but I am not sure when that will be.
It is never easy being down for the holidays, but I try and put on a brave face and get thru it. Sometimes the ones that are supposed to be there for you, don’t listen and make things harder to handle. I know that I will be fine and get thru the holiday season again, but just remember when you see someone don’t judge them you don’t know what they are going thru.
I want to wish everyone that has followed me and went on this year-long journey with me. I will continue next year where I know I will have challenges that will have to deal with. I know that I will get thru them with help from others and myself.
One day it would be nice to get a prayer answered once, but it will happen when you least expect it.
