Thankful


     Tomorrow is Thanksgiving and it's the time of year when people think more about what they are thankful for. I am thankful for quite a lot of things. Life is a challenge a lot of the time, and things are rarely easy for me, but this year especially I feel I have a lot to be thankful for. I have always been thankful for my family, my model horse family, and my work family, but this year I get to add to that my dance family. I have a lot of really amazing people in my life.
     I am grateful I am managing to balance all of the things I need to do to make sure Travis has what he needs. Sometimes doing all the paperwork to make sure he can stay in his program, keep his insurance, etc., feels like another almost full time job. I don't imagine that will ever be easy, but it has gotten to a point where it is a lot easier. 
     I am grateful for travel. That wasn't something I was able to do for years but this year I made two trips. Travis and I went out to Kentucky for horsefest and at the beginning of this month we went out to Colorado for Candyland Live. All of the traveling I have done so far has been for model horse things, but it gives me a time and a place to go to, which is a good start. Now I want to go more places. And maybe not just places that have to do with model horses. I know I want to go to New Orleans. Maybe that one will come soon. And I am still open to going to more places to judge horse shows. I have not had interest in showing in several years now, but I have been enjoying judging again. 
      Dance has been the most amazing thing to come into my life in a very long time. I have met some truly wonderful people. Plus I found a way to get in a good workout without feeling like I am forcing myself to work out. And I never make the excuse that I don't have time to dance. There is always time for dance. And while there has occasionally been a bit of drama during a dance I have never had a bad time dancing. 
      Last Saturday I was at a friendsgiving dance party. I properly met my friend's daughter, who I have met before, but this time we played Uno, were on the same team, so now we are real friends. Before she left she asked what my favorite color is, I told her pink, and she pulled a piece of pink construction paper out of her backpack. Now this little girl is an artist and every time I have seen her she is doing some kind of art. I love that. So she gave me a piece of her paper and I promised her I would make something beautiful with it. Which is where the rose in the photo comes in. I could keep it but I think I will give it to my friend to give to his daughter when he gets home. I promised to make something beautiful, and you should always keep your promises. Especially to children. I hope she likes it.

Black Friday Sale Preview

       I am trying to keep up with all the things I need to do, but it's a struggle. I figured I would give a quick preview of at least some of the offerings I will have at my Black Friday semi-live sale. Some things are from my personal collection since I have decided to downsize, again. I don't have as many accessories as I sometimes have, I just have not had as much time this year to work on those types of things. 
      I do have some other items I might add if I find the energy to get photos. I am still struggling with Chrome not allowing me to load photos into blogger, I can't seem to connect my phone to my computer (or my car. Apparently it's too new and they are too old) so I had to download Firefox to my phone as a work-around. Nothing is easy these days and everything takes more time than it should. 
    So a quick rundown of the semi-live sale. It is going to run a little bit differently than the last couple/few. I just don't have to energy to make groups of thing. So if the thing is alone in the photo, you can claim the thing. No waiting. I am planning on listing single photo things about one a minute, and then every 10 or so items taking a break from the posts for maybe 5 minutes so I can catch up on the claims. To claim an item all you have to do is be the first to say "mine" under the photo when it posts on Friday. There will be no preview photos on the Facebook studio page, just a link to this blog post. 
    If there is more than one item in the photo I will put a number or a letter on them. Then to claim you just say mine and the number or letter. That's it. I also don't mind if you claim more than one item in a group photo. I do not have time or energy to police this. I have tried a number of different ways to be as fair as I possibly can and I have still had people complaining at me that it's not fair. Well, I'm tired and doing the best I can. All I can say is try your best. Use your fastest device. I know my computer has a delay compared to my phone, for example. All I can say is I hope you get what you are after. If you don't, and it's a doll, ask me if I'll make one like it. I might say yes. 
    I will be putting a more detailed schedule of when the items will post probably on Thursday. Maybe even tomorrow (Wednesday) if I manage to get it together so I can post it. I can say that the order of things in this post is very likely to be the order of the sale. Just to make things slightly easier on myself. Some items, like judge's kits, blankets, apples and carrots, I have more than one of. I will try to list this pertinent info on the claim photo. You are allowed to claim more than one if you want more than one. 
    I think that's all I have for right now. The semi-live sale will be this Friday, November 29, 2024 at 2:00 eastern time. You do not have to come to the live portion at all to claim items. I will maybe have trivia, but right now I have nothing ready. I do have the prize wheel that I brought to Breyerfest so I may just have a great time giving prizes for whatever random thing I think of. So if you want to join me to watch me dance around and sing the alphabet, check out the live portion of my live sale on Facebook on Friday. "See" you then!
