Did you have a hard 2019? Were you on Facebook where all you saw were posts about 2019 getting over with because it was so hard?
I did. I had so many friends go on and on about how hard of a year it was. And it was a hard year for them. So many things that saddened my heart.
The crazy part? It was not until sometime in January 2020 when I realized - Wow!

Tuesday, March 10, I posted about Kentucky Crafted Market. Well, guess what went up against Covid19 and lost! Yep. Kentucky Crafted Market has been "postponed" for now.
As for Never Bored Creations being at the postponed date - we will have to wait and see. My next few months are pretty crazy. So it depends on the reschedule date.

But wait! It will be here soon!

I don't know about where you live, but around here we are getting a reprieve from the summer heat and starting to feel the crispness of fall. Not that I can complain about the summer heat of 2019 anyway. It really has been a pleasant summer. Makes me worry about winter!

I'm so very honored. I've been invited to be a professional demonstrator at this year's Greentree Festival in Kirkwood, Missouri!
They have invited me a couple times but Silver Dollar City Fall Festival had my attention the past four seasons. This type of opportunity is why I've chosen not to demo at SDC for awhile.

Hey all you amazing paper lovin' peeps!
I want to thank all of you for helping make 2018 the best year ever! It was a crazy busy year!
As for 2019? I'm so very excited about the changes I've got in the works!
First, I won't be at Silver Dollar City this fall. They've made changes. I've made changes. What a blessing the past four seasons have been. It also connected me with most of you!

Christmas is coming!
In less than 20 days millions will celebrate with family and friends the joyous season of Christmas. Here at Never Bored Creations we do celebrate that time as the recognized holiday for the birth of the Savior, Jesus. For this reason it has meaning that lasts 24/7/365.
However, I am aware that many of my friends and fans only celebrate it as a holiday with tidings of Lisa Palmerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00076803147077283840noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7661282294619814884.post-15915635544110414492018-11-14T18:52:00.000-08:002018-11-14T18:52:10.630-08:00Lost in a moment...or two
Hey twirl buddies!
Have you ever had a season in life when
one opportunity after another lead you away from your passion? That's
what the past few months have been for me.
“Few months? Really, Lisa?” says
the inner voice.
Well, okay, maybe longer than that! But
time flies when you're having fun! I've gone from wholesaling my art
to working a feasibility plan that would make Never Lisa Palmerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00076803147077283840noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7661282294619814884.post-44285551323133716002018-06-29T12:34:00.000-07:002018-06-29T12:34:04.258-07:00The Joy of Freedom...
With summer in full swing, temperatures are rising and vacations are happening. And as a nation we celebrate the 4th of July. A date chosen for us to recognize the freedom Americans fought for from the colonial days to now. In all our flaws we still have freedoms many countries don't enjoy.
The 4th of July is an extra special time in our household. It is my husband's birthday.

2018!!! How did that happen?! An artist coach I follow shared and idea that I'm running with: "Don't think of this as 2018 but as your year! Take this year beyond and make it 20-GREAT-teen!" That is my goal. So I bought a new planner and did 90-day planning.

Thanksgiving 2017!
I'm always amazed at how quickly time now flies. As I grew up people told me this would happen; however, in our current society it is not just flying by for adults. I hear it in my grandkids, also. So much on their plates there is little time for watching clouds, reading a good book (for fun not school!), catching up with friends, or snuggling with a grandparent.
