The black spiky caterpillars are back. This guy showed up on my garage door after I was in there for like 10 minutes. I shared on my neighborhood Facebook group and apparently it’s a Tiger Moth Caterpillar!
House clean out for Austin Creative Reuse and Goodwill Central Texas. I did find the keyboard that was lost, and I found a whole bunch of other things. As I’ve mentioned it’s not new stuff. It’s just stuff that I’m seeing with new eyes and ready to move along. A lot of it’s craft and…

Processing kids’ crafts. There are so many different types of materials that kids use in crafts and projects. Let’s work on a few. Also, it’s okay to process you kids’ art. You can’t keep all of it.

I was able to stretch my sweater! My thrifted new-to-me 100% cotton sweater ended up in the dryer and shrank down to kid size. I washed it again and was able to stretch it out! Success! If I couldn’t fix it, I was going to reduce the arm length down for my son since it…
We recently reorganized our office. I decided that I wanted to reduce the amount of books I had in the office and the house. I spent a lot of March going through our home again working towards moderation. There is now one adult bookcase, one son bookcase, and a small living room bookshelf. This is…
