Broken Hearted

I wasn't going to write about this because it's so very personal to me, but I decided I would. My mom died last friday morning at 1:00 A.M. My family and I were grateful to be with her, but at the same time it was the hardest thing I've ever watched in my life. She was the most selfless person I have ever known, and put others before herself continually. Mom was very loving, creative and had a great sense of humor. Here she is holding me in 1966.
Suzy loved to garden, and here she is with a beautiful hydrangea. Right now, I'm so sad and heart broken and don't feel like doing much of anything. I look forward to the day when I can rejoin my mom but for now it sucks. I know this will change, and I only hope that I can be as selfless and kind to others as my mom was as I continue on in my own life. I love you mom and I'm going to miss you. Much Love, Martha

Booth Views

Hi! Thanks to everyone who came out to the Carlsbad Street Fair. It was a great one, and I'm just sorry I didn't have enough of my charms to go around. It's been a challenge lately to keep up with demand, which is really a good thing. This is a view of my little booth. I got the wings for my dress form from a Halloween shop that was having a sale. I had to take them down later in the day because it got windy and I thought she might fly away.


What was I thinking when I made white tablecloths? Oh well, at least I can bleach them.
Hope you had a nice weekend. The weather here in CA has been gorgeous today, after some early morning fog (we call it "May Grey" which turns into "June Gloom") Have a wonderful day, and thanks for stopping by.
Take care,
Martha
