I'm an adult...even an older adult...married to a man I still love after 38 years (and yes, that IS a long time), mother of 4 grown children (with whom I now have wonderful adult conversations...lucky, I know) who found herself with an empty nest, a business that I have finally routine-ized (so I don't have to think/agonize over so many details, I just know how and what to do and when to do it, a parent who needs, make that NEEDS, me and a whole bunch of pets. This added up to a clown car of happiness AND stress traveling down my life's highway. I discovered a hobby that let me indulge in a love of color, art and office supplies, you-tube, and how-to books...paper-crafting. I find myself laying paper palettes on tables, arranging and rearranging, shuffling, cutting, folding; well, you get the picture...envisioning, concentrating, THINKING. However, my creations don't always turn up on the "perfection" end of the scale the first time I make them, or the fifth time, or, sometimes, ever. I am hoping that you will want to come along with me on my paper-crafting journey, the good, the bad, and the inspired (occasionally) because I plan to show it all (mistakes, failures, fixes, methods). That's what a learners permit is all about. ( and now I have the hokey pokey song stuck in my head)
