I have added a new card to the shop and removed an old one. I also removed another listing that had been sold and I don't know why I neglected to remove it earlier. I have other cards I really need to add, and I will be doing that hopefully by this weekend.
My sister just had a baby and my husband just got moved to 1st shift at his job, plus we are also looking for a house and trying to get everything in order for that. (We have been trying to move for nearly a year now and since our plans keep changing, we never seem to be able to!)
My health is improving slowly but steadily as I take better care of myself and make more conscientious efforts toward improving my health. Education and information have really changed my perspective about some things regarding my health. For example, I am chronically anemic (diagnosed in 2011) and have a prescription iron pill I am supposed to take daily. I used to not take it at all because I didn't prioritize self-care.
It turns out that iron is vital for thyroid function, and since I also have hypothyroidism I was actually hurting my thyroid even more by not taking my prescription! I promise I am not one of those arrogant types who think I know more than a doctor--I simply did not make myself a priority for YEARS.
Now I have started making small but consistent changes to help guide me toward better self-care so that I can have the time and energy to do more of the things I love, like creating cards and art!
Thank you to any who read this! I hope to connect with you soon.

Hello all! I have noticed an increase in traffic to my website, and in the interests of serving others well I would like to update you on what's going on with my shop. The cards you see are very much still for sale. I am still here, my shop is still active!
I have a few other cards that I need to list, and I will do so as soon as possible.
I am aware that I failed to list anything for the Christmas holiday, and for that I do apologize. I actually made only 1 Christmas card this year (terrible, I know). I had big plans for Christmas 2020, but life had other plans.
Thank you to any who read this, and thank you for visiting my website. I truly appreciate your patronage here, and the fact that I have missed out on connecting with you is not lost on me. I appreciate your patience and I hope to see you here again!xoxo,
Alegra
