Im selling my condo, yay!

The downside to that is that the closing date is just after our return from France. So, minus those two weeks, I only had this last weekend and this upcoming weekend to move. The future house is not ready for us, as far as painting and such goes. So…that being said, my life will be complete and utter chaos for a bit, living out of boxes while I try to complete things room by room. Hence, there will not be any crafting going on I am afraid. Even emails might be lacking. Therefore, Ive decided I am taking a mini vacation from theCrafties.

Hope to get back soon, and that all is well and clutter free on your ends of things.
