October, my favorite time of year

Oh October. . .
such a magnificent time of year. My favorite month by far. It's all about the Halloween crafts for me and the wonderful things that life brings as we begin to transcend into the solstice of the year.
This has been a really tough year for me as I am a very strong and independent single entity who's health has always been very good in spite of some seasonal allergies. My allergies got so bad I had to stop eating meat and any processed foods. By time I got that all under control I had a routine breast scan to appease my health insurance carrier and was told" You need to have a biopsy right away, there is a mass on your breast and it could very well be cancer!" Well, I ran like my ass was on fire and put myself on an all fruit & veggie cancer diet. I thought, NO way, I  am NOT  going down like this. So after four months of holistic cancer diet, vitamin and supplements to build my immune system, all the tests came back and I did not have cancer but fibroid cysts. I had surgery last week and now will be a smaller chested women than I am used to being but  at 58, it's ok. Any tissue not well is gone and I will be fine in a few weeks. Of course I'm going to need a new wardrobe as I also shaded about 38 pounds during this whole process. All I can say is that "I'm glad it's almost over.

 My creativity level has been in the toilet for the last 6 months so this whole extravaganzas cost me more than I care to talk about and I will STAY AWAY FROM DOCTORS!!!"
Going forward, it's too late to make up for the loss of Halloween craft season, I will be moving on  to the Yule Season and hopefully can gain some speed to get me through the winter.
LESSON LEARNED,THANK YOU!!!
Anyway my Halloween dolls and such are being listed on ebay so you can check them out there and pick them up on auction, which is much less money.
Have a good month, many blessings

It is already the 16th of February and the weather here in Wisconsin is so mild that we have to wonder about our ability to create the world around us. My friend was talking to me early in the December's, saying that the weather will not be kind this year. Laughing out load I reminded her of how harsh the winter was in 2011 and told her to be careful what she wished for or even chose to think about. After a good laugh, getting off the phone, I sat outside in the sunshine and reminded mother earth that we needed a really easy and sweet winter this year as the last was so brutal.
Along with all the talk of the weather, time drifts by and we busy ourselves on the colder days with our creative ventures.
My need to earn money from home has taken me in a new direction, off on a different adventure.  One The Road Again, I am forced to sell myself for a wage outside of my home to support my household, so I am going to start schooling to be a health coach/ life coach, which is person who provides support to those needing to change their lifestyles to insure themselves that they will not outlive there ability to be self sufficient. Being a health coach means I will give support to people who need help to loose weight, quit smoking, daily exercise and help them to stay on track with their plans, recording their progress and showing them how well they have done and how far they have come.
So I upgraded my phone to a smart phone to power and provide service to my laptop which will enable me to take my classes on my lunch break from work, in the parking lot, in the comfort of my vehicle. This should prove to be very interesting. I'll keep you posted on my progress. My classes will take a full year to become a certified Health coach.
 I look forward to this new venture as it will eventually allow me to go back to being an artist and generate enough income to maintain my life style without working outside my home 80 hours a week. 
Until next time. . . thanks for visiting me. . .blessed be
