Just Like That, I am Back

 If I said I was back, would you believe me? Blogging is complicated, and there are so many "get rich quick" blogging schemes that make it look like you are a lost cause if you are not currently earning money blogging. And why are you even blogging if you don't have multiple streams of income and entertainment. If you don't have a brand? I do have this website, but I do not have Instagram, Twitter, TikTok (you don't want to see me dance), or whatever is next.  Heck, I haven't even updated this since before the pandemic. So why am I here, writing about being back and then, probably ghosting for another two years? Life has been rough. It's been painful and overwhelming. I am so thankful for you my readers, or what is left of you. I am so thankful you are reading this post. I am so thankful that you are still committed to making the world a more exciting and more sustainable place.  Keep up-cycling my friends, and you never know, I might be back again with an

Potty Project: Days Three and Four

I hate potty training.

I HATE TOILET TRAINING


I said it and I truly do mean it.

In fact, I bet just about every parent out there hates it with a passion.

Today, I learned to ask the hubsters what he puts in the pancakes before serving them to the potty training toddler. See he put a huge heaping serving of flax in the cakes and it did not make for a pleasant afternoon in pity world.

I wanted to throw in the towel so badly but the little guy will not wear diapers during e day. As super proud of him as I am my over washed hands are screaming at me.

Well until next time.  Tired and overwhelmingly looking forward to bed time,

 Robin

Melted Rainbow Crayon Art Tutorial

I love the melted crayon art all over the internet. My daughter is having a rainbow birthday party this weekend and what would be better than a crayon art canvas with some melted crayons. I mean how hard could it be? Actually, it melted crayon canvas art is pretty much the easiest art project ever. You will need: 64 pack of Crayola crayons (you could do a few 24 packs or use another brand, but I like Crayola's melt-ability) Hot glue gun (with glue of course) Canvas (I used a 16 X 16 inch white canvas) Blow Dryer The first step is to glue your crayons with a hot glue gun in the order you like to the top of the canvas.  I really like the look of the labels facing the same way.  I also tried as much as possible to go with the red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple theme (you know a rainbow for the rainbow party). I started taking some pictures because I was in love with the look of the lined up crayons. I have no idea what I am going to use 100 pictures of a row o
