How was your July? Was it as fast as mine? Did you get some sun?
July was pretty good for me. Still some frustration but in new areas. I'll take it over the previous situation though! LOL We had plenty of sun here, and I got too much of it while mowing the lawn one day. :(
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to hear more about this shelf! :P

I am glad it was mostly a better month!! I am rooting for you guys to get a groove that feels good. I saw you posting some fall Walmart photos!!! WOOT!
DeleteI hear ya on the sun. I hope you didn't get burned. I have been in the yard for the past few days planting some canna lilies along the garage and my skin is getting some sun for sure.
I am posting a house tour tomorrow and the sign will be featured! Once I get some plants trailing I will happily do a full feature. It won't take too long since I have some plants in mind. I just need that first paycheck.
