Lost & Found

Ladies there were a couple of things turned into lost & found and another item missing from the crop this past weekend. 

Items found were, this cute little roller stamp....
And this cushion was left on someones chair. Unfortunately it was just laid on my table otherwise I could have notified the owner by the seating chart.... 
Please contact me to claim.

Also, one of our croppers lost her letter & sticker circle aligner made by Creative Memories. Please let me know if you are the one that found this......thanks!

Back from a fabulous 3 day crop and lo and behold....we survived!

63 wonderful talented ladies filled the room, some from as far away as Wisconsin! Nothing speaks louder to me then these ladies coming from a far because they have heard the raves regarding our crops!! To date we have had the honor of New Zealand, Wisconsin, Georgia, & North Carolina x3 represented at our crops. That's an amazing testament in itself...

There will be no videos from the crop this time because unfortunately our DJ was slightly ill after dinner Saturday night and needed to have a personal relationship with his throne so we sent him to bed. We still had a ton of fun as my buddy Kelly stepped right up and took over the role of our DJ & let me tell you....she was quite entertaining & I believe now has a new found compassion for our DJ. I believe her words were...it ain't as easy as it looks!! LOL 

All of the pictures are posted on Facebook.

Registration is now open for "Spring Fling" April 19th, 20th & 21st at the Magnuson Hotel and of course I have already started receiving registrations....  I will add information about this crop next week.

 How do you go about Self Nurturing? 
 

On an airplane we get the instructions, “in case of a drop in cabin pressure, first put your oxygen mask on and then help those around you with theirs”.  Self care is vital. We all know to do this in an emergency situation, yet often forget to apply this in our everyday lives. Perhaps it’s because instead of decrease in cabin pressure, in our everyday lives we have slow and steady INCREASE in daily pressures!                                      

Basic self-care includes good nutrition, exercise, and sleep. These maintain our ability to function.  Self-nurturing is over and above the basics. Self Nurturing is what refills our reserves. Self nurturing is what re-stores our joy and peace. It often involves a way in which we connect because connection stimulates Oxytocin release which is the feel good hormone.

There are studies to support that women literally restore hormonal balances offset by stress by spending time together, talking, sharing, and connecting. (Television producers knew we got this vicariously watching Sex in the City, or Golden Girls).  This feel good hormone often gets depleted in our daily lives.

One way we can self nurture is to create situations where know that we will have connections, share our laughter and our creativity, and re-store our inner balance. So, the time to nurture yourself is now!!!

Why not join us September 14th, 15th & 16th in Sebring at the Historic Kenilworth Lodge and restore your soul and inner peace……
*Crop fee $85.00 for entire weekend. This does NOT include meals or accommodations. (Unlimted refreshments and snacks, including fresh fruits are provided throughout the entire event)
