I just absolutely love what I do. How in the world did I fall into this amazing little business. For my 50th birthday present my daughter gave me my very own blog. She made it so easy by setting it up. All I have to do is pretty much type and hit a few buttons and it all goes out. That is the easy part it’s the other part that keeps me awake at night. When I do sleep I...

So many things in our lives are disposable these days. Nothing is made to last anymore as we become a society that takes no stock in the long life of what we purchase. We buy for the moment in most cases with no thought of years down the road. Years ago families had the same dresser that their parents started house keeping on.

I had nothing in the back of my truck despite the fact I had gone through at least 3 neighborhoods. One last street and then home and that’s when I saw it. There was an odd shape sticking...

Tomorrow is the second sidewalk sale of July at Doc Holliday’s Emporium. My collection of things this time around is Whimsical and artsy with a touch of Texas on one particular piece. After all life is way to short to have everything in your home all matchy, matchy. We need those things that pop and give us a moment to smile. When was the last time you just stood in a room of your home and really looked around?...

Well today is the last day of art camp at Wylie Prep. We have had fun, sun and tons of art. I’ve been amazed at the volunteer’s and how they have loved on these kids and served them well. I don’t know of any other way I would like to start my summer but with these kids. Some were new to the teaching crew and they did well. Always on the 3rd day you can see it on the teachers...
