Hi friends, rather I should say good morning since its after 2 a.m. and I've just now logged in to begin updating my blog (more tomorrow I promise!)
I have spent the day working hard (taking frequent breaks due to back pain!) making my Co-Co Beanz Creations facebook page a little better, creating my very own YouTube channel (inspired and motivation came from my favorite person out there in social networking land Vanessa Wilson, owner of The Crafty Gemini). I just adore her! I hope she doesn't think I am stalking her since I have sent her 9,999 emails telling her how she encourages me and how much I love her ~giggles.
She's a lawyer for Pete's sake and gave it up for the most part so she could stay home, make sewing and cooking videos, and be with her babies. Sounds just like me and what I want to be when I grow up. I have a birthday next month. I'm not counting! Anyway she loves to see people succeed and I hope she doesn't think I am being a copy cat. Lord knows I've wanted to do something on FILM since I was a little girl. I was thinking and dreaming more along the lines of an Academy Award winning actress like Renee Zellweger, but by golly I will settle for a YouTube channel and being a mere novice and mostly an unknown! I just need followers! Last time I checked I had a little over 700. It's a little sad. But I won't give up. Since I have a lot in common with some of the great bloggers and cooks out there maybe there's room for me too. I just have a different style. I really don't know how to explain it.......you can watch my videos and see for youself. I'm pretty sure its the southern accent. If I had a British accent I'd never shut up. I love to hear Adele talk (and sing!) Anyway, I'd love to read your comments.
One person who would be my biggest supporter moved to live in heaven 19 years ago today. My Mother-in-law, Faye. She would be so proud of me. Keith and Cody are proud. I may not have a big following....but they think I'm a huge star!
I have pics from our camping trip this past weekend at Arrowhead Park and I promise to get those up to you tomorrow. Right now I'm so sleepy I can barely think straight. God bless all of you. I will end with a video I made and posted on my YouTube channel today...my very first one on the channel! How excited! I have more cooking/kitchen how-to's on there right now than I do sewing....but just wait...they're coming ;-)
I can't wait to start on the Crafty Gemini online quilt a long tomorrow. I'm going to make some awesome quilt blocks under her guidance and direction....other than that I have so many other plans.....if only I had the stamina and a pain free low back! Do you ever feel like time is running out on you? I've felt like that lately.
Good night everyone. God Bless! PLEASE leave a comment. I love comments that encourage me. I know I can grow and prosper. I'm giving it all I've got and I'm not getting any younger :-) I sure do miss my Grandmama. The Decorah Eagles babies are hatching right now. I will tell you about them tomorrow. You can find them on Ustream. I love baby eaglets!

I think one of my links isnt working. I will correct that tomorrow...now I must stumble to the bed! Good night!
Good morning to you!! Love your blog and really loved your video about your great finds. You are definitely talented in so many ways and are an inspiration to many of us. Have a beautiful day, my friend. :)
Thank you ever so KINDLY! Wow! Thank you! Laurie
As long as you stick to your goals and make more videos, I'm sure you can get more youtube followers on your channel!

I'm commenting on this blog, since the blog you posted in the swap-bot comments is no longer a working link.
700 followers is doing really great! That's the beauty of youtube - you no longer have to go to Hollywood to get famous anymore. With the onslaught of social networking sites and sites like YouTube, the tools to be noticed are in our own hands, and we have but to utilize them. Sounds like you're doing great at that! Good luck with it!
