Let's Catch Up!

Hello, hello, hello!

I've been super duper busy since I last posted. Very exciting things are happening over at the Stafford household. Some good exciting, some not so good exciting... but exciting nonetheless.

This week has been a balance of plus and minus. Pros and cons. If's and but's.

We fixed the truck (again)! But the air conditioner broke.
The coil burned up! BUT, it didn't catch fire.
Cool  weather is coming soon. But, it's 91 degrees in the house!
There's still a hole in the wall! But we have paneling to repair it with now.

 It's been a whirlwind, to say the least.

But in this same, hectic week, so many NICE things have happened:
✓ I've been working on my secret project, and I have to say that it is going pretty darn well.
✓ I FINALLY GOT MY NEW DRYER!!
✓ I had time one morning to do some painting with Jase before work (which never happens!)
✓ Did I mention that I got my new dryer?!
✓ I made my first batch of candy for the fall ☺
✓ I finished setting up all my online stores.
✓ I scheduled another book reading with my son's school!

So, as you can see, it's been a little difficult for me to entertain you lately... but, I'm hoping things will slow down for me here in the next few weeks.

I still have to finish my secret project... although, I haven't set a time limit for myself on that one. Just letting it happen as it will.
And I still need to get my act together on these illustrations for Our Little House on the Great Big Hill. I'm hoping to have it at least mostly done by the end of the year. It'll happen eventually I guess haha.

Until next time!

Always Keep Adventuring -

Quiet, Frustration, and Reflection

Okay, okay.. I've been kind of quiet lately. My blog posts haven't been as frequent, I haven't posted any new comics or drawings, no updates on books. Quite frankly, I've been in a little bit of a frustrated slump lately. I've been working here and there on projects, trying to keep up with my boys, and get as much sleep as possible. I've been enjoying the beautiful fall weather. I've been trying to buy a house, and it's not really going as planned. I've been bingeing on Stranger Things  with my husband. I've got so many ideas, but I'm feeling uninspired and foggy all the time. I've decided to take a little me time. I'll probably be a little quiet online, but I'm still going to be working toward finishing the projects I already have started before moving on to anything else. As updates are available, I will post them.  I have a radio interview coming up this Thursday, so that's pretty exciting! I'll let you ...

FREE PROMO and Other Interesting Blurbs

September 2-6,  the Kindle Edition of The Greasy Opossum  is FREE! So far, nearly 100 copies have been claimed, and I'm so excited!! Check it out before the promo ends. This has been such a busy week, and I'm feeling pretty jazzed today. Tired, but jazzed nonetheless. So many changes and new things are coming, but I'm not sure what to say about them yet, so I guess you'll just have to wait for a little longer. It's SUNDAY so be sure to check back later tonight for my new comic. Always Keep Adventuring -Rachel ♥♥

A "Sweet" Day at the Chocolate Factory

So, for my first event, I'd say my helpers and I did pretty well! My special helpers were (for the most part) well behaved, especially when their grandparents came out to help! We had a little table, sold a few books, and had chocolate and ice cream! It was a pretty slow morning, which was a little unexpected, but at least we weren't completely overwhelmed! I was feeling a little more than unprepared anyway, so everything worked out just fine. September 30th, we'll be back at the Chocolate Factory for their BIG 40th Anniversary Event! I think we'll have a much bigger turnout that day, and I'll have books on hand that people can take home that day! Feeling very blessed right now, and it seems like things are really starting to fall into place. Always Keep Adventuring, Rachel ♥♥
