Other hobby

I was enjoying a great summer day fishing. And caught an 8 pound catfish. I was in a sundress and barefoot. That is how we do it in Kentucky. Oh you have to appreciate the good days. It was loads of fun. I did throw it back so it can keep growing.

WOW I did not know that picture was going to be so BIG!

Update

Hi everyone,

I am so glad to be back online. I have had a lot going on and am getting my etsy shop CJW Design Village back up and ready to post new items. I had to close shop for awhile. My father had a bad wreck and I needed to help take care of him. And then my mother started having health issues. I took care of both of them for over a year. So my personal ventures where put on hold. Which was not a problem I was glad I could help.
I lost my mother on Nov. 23 2014. I miss her dearly. I was blessed in the fact that she passed on her terms just has she wanted at home in her own bed. And it was very peaceful. She had a love for beautiful things vintage and lots of jewelry. Which I was fortunate enough to inherit. I gained the love for crafting from my mother. And she had even hoped to open an etsy shop too. She did cross-stitching until she was no longer able to see to do the work.
I know we always hear this but do spend time with your loved ones and tell them now how much you care for them. I was fortunate to have that private time with my mother to talk and shop together before she was to ill. That is not always the case.
I want to end on a happy note. I hope to be posting weekly and invite you to join me.

Enjoy the day,
Cynthia

Update on puppies

We gave two more puppies new homes. We have two left and it looks like we are going to keep them.. We just got attached to them.
I know of a great shop on Etsy owned by my friend Sally

BloomingtailsDogDuds that makes to order pet clothes and accessories. 

Check it out.

Puppies are leaving our nest.

We sold the first puppy to a sweet family. Holding the puppy and a gift of wax dog bones from Markets.

Puppy Update

All of the pups are growing and it is so fun to watch them play and now they have learned to climb.

I will include a picture when I download them from my phone.

Here is another growing boy.

Mom and babies are content.

This is the only girl we have. Their personalities are beginning to show and she is very playful. I know there are others out there with dogs or cats. Post some pictures.

I am so excited my jewelry was featured on TV!!! If you would like to share my excitement go to

They are so small this on has a diamond shape on it's head. Mom is keeping close watch in the background.

Chichuchua's

Well the puppies are here 6. All healthy the mom is doing really good job taking are of them. When they make noise they sound like little baby birds. I will have pictures next time.

See ya

I am expecting 5 puppies any day and I am so nerves but excited. They are chihuahuas. On another note sometime in the future I will be learning to sew. My Mother is downsizing and offered me her surger  and computerized sewing machine. Yeah
I have been so upbeat about what we are doing to promote our shops and Markets of Sunshine. Large or small we just keep going and that is what it takes. You can look at promotion like this. What do you pay yourself an hour? Take an hour and work the promotions Marsha requests. Could you get that much promotion for your hourly wage if you were paying someone to do it for you. I think not. Thanks Cynthia

Christmas

Hi everyone,

I hope you have a Merry Christmas. That you stop and enjoy the loved ones around you.
