October 2025 $50 Your Way Giveaway
How My September Went Before the giveaway, I give an update on life on the mountain. My craftroom is as busy as ever. The Ponderay Special Needs Christmas Craft Fair is coming up in November.

ANYWAY, I was so happy with myself that I created a new header. Didn’t break the site. Didn’t lose any posts, pictures or comments. I was floatin’ pretty high, I must admit.
