How are we all today?
Good, I hope.
I'd like to take a few paragraphs of your time to introduce myself. Incase you are just finding this blog.
My name is Marcia Colbert pronounced like Marcia Brady and Steven Colbert. (mar-sh-ah Cole-bear)
You may know me as Mercy Celeste. That's my author pen name. We are not the same.
We are, but, for the sake of this site, I am Marcia. Mercy has a site already.
So, what is January Moon Cottage all about?
Well, I don't know. In my other lives I'm a crafter and a reseller and a mom and a grandmom. I'd like to leave the writing part of me to the Mercy blog and focus on the other aspects of my life.
Like crafting and selling and maybe food and cooking and you know... more lifestyle stuff.
Fun stuff that I would like to separate from Mercy.
And that will mean sharing affiliate links and videos and direct buy links for craft items, and maybe thrifting hauls and where to buy what I've found.
Why, yes, I do know this is all over the place... if you've known me for a while you'll know that I have ADHD and am autistic to a small degree. Which means, I have a ton of interests and the ability to not suck at everything just enough to think I can manage everything from simply watching a Youtube tutorial. Unfortunately, I can. Which leads me to the ADHD portion of all of this. Once Upon a Time I was able to focus the gordian knot that is my brain into making words into stories on a computer. Somewhere in the last few years I've lost the ability to focus, anything, for any length of time. And, yes, this is a problem.
You go fifty years blithely unaware you're a walking time bomb with a few super powers and suddenly poof the only super powers you have left are the bad ones. Super smell, hearing, and taste. Formerly super vision that was destroyed by astigmatism but extreme light sensitivity remains.
YAY!
Believe me, this sucks for me to live it. Sorry if I sometimes... oh yeah, I also have no concept of social etiquette and I lack a filter.
Fun stuff.
But it does all revolve around a massive curiosity and need to know everything that I'm currently fixated on until that fixation runs it's course.
ie, the reason I have so many craft supplies.
The thrift store thing tho, that seems to be inherited from my evil grandmother. I don't like it anymore than you do. This urge to go junkin'.
So... yeah, that's what's coming here, if you'd like to follow me. I don't know what I'll post from day to day, and if you like that kind of game then I'm your person.
I have no plans to limit the content right now to just a craft blog or just a resell blog or just a cooking blog. I see no reason why those things can't coexist.
In closing, I'd like to say, hang on to your hats, friends, we're unmedicated and off our rockers, and we own power tools and know how to use 'em.
