After going through closets I discovered tons of t-shirts that could no longer be worn. Since I already have a huge stack of rags I decided to put on my thinking cap and come up with another idea.
Doggie tug toys…chewies or whatever you’d like to call them. You may or may not know this but the pet supply industry is booming. People love their furry companions…they are family. Now we may not have a dog as a pet, though Gracie tries her best to imitate one at times. 
I’ve managed to make a pretty good stock pile of them for the holiday craft sale season.
So what I have I been up to lately? I’ve been doing more crafting than blogging…. And more yard work than crafting. Weeding, mowing, planting and watering… But now that we’ve had over 4 inches of rain, at least I don’t have to worry about the watering.
I make my grocery lists on junk mail envelopes if I’m bringing coupons to the store. I’ve lost enough using just a paperclip in the past. Originally when I started using envelopes I used new ones…one day while throwing out junk mail about 17 years ago it dawned on me…I should just use those. Duh!
