Still Kicking...

But barely. Somedays I feel like I'm really busy, accomplishing a lot of things, and others....not so much. I've been away from the blogosphere lately because the boy and I are in the middle of moving. We didn't get internet until this week, and let me tell ya, that's been rough. I never realized how internet-dependant I was until it was stripped away from me.

On another note, we're really liking the new place. We are now renting a house, and we're living sort of in the outskirts of Denver, in Englewood. The house is really cute-built in 1912, and it needs our love. I have so many ideas! Did you know that in 1912 storage was not a necessity whatsoever? It must be true, because we have zero closets! Have no fear, because I come with solutions! I will be sharing my first solution in the next post. The boy helped me create something for our bedroom-but I won't be able to share our lovely solution until I clean our room! Maybe I should do that right after this...we will see.

My weekends seem to fly by. I don't want to go to bed yet tonight because I don't want Sunday to be here yet. Do you ever feel that way? What have you been up to this weekend?

Why is my name Butter? Cuz I'm on a roll...


I'm doing good. I'm staying on track, producing lots of items for Etsy, and keeping the apartment at some level of clean. A few days ago I made a beautiful batch of blue handmade paper and couldn't wait to start creating EcoBooks with it last night.

It seems that when I feel on track, I have good momentum for a few days, then I crash..so I'm trying to keep going by preparing for that "crash" moment.
What do you do to stay on track? Tips are always welcome.

On another note, I may have a new home. Yep, rachelmay designs will be moving. Currently, the boy and I live in a decent one-bedroom apartment in Denver. It's not downtown, or close to school, or near work for me---so it isn't all that convenient. My job however, has perks-and one is that I'm really close to a property management company. They are going to rent me a HOUSE! for a steal, and I'm taking it. It's four blocks from work, close to the light rail to get downtown/to school, etc....so all is looking good. Keep your fingers crossed that this goes through...I'm ready for a change of scenery:)

On another note-hasn't this just been a fabulous summer?! I sure think so!
