Grow Your Blog 2014

For some reason...my computer is not wanting to cooperate so I am not sure if my blog will be working.  But here goes.

My name is Veralynne and I am a 50+ mom and grandma. Both roles that I love.  I am semi retired to take care of a disabled husband.  I am currently working part time at our local Jackson Hewitt. More to just be able to get out and interact with people.

My loves are jewelry, crochet, sewing, crafting, reading and just enjoying life.  This blogging thing is new to me so I know my blog isn't that creative or full YET. But if you look back through my post here you can see a little of what I do. I also have a blog...www.thesongsofmyheart1@blogspot.com where I put poems and such that I write. And when I get a chance I take photos for what we call Macro Monday and that site is www.verasmacromondays.blogspot.com/

But I am learning and growing and that is what it is about.


This is the most current picture of me. It is taken with my daughter, Sydny.  I do need to get in and get something done with my hair....

I have two other sons...Larry who is married to Shelly and given me two beautiful granddaughters




And my other son, Nicholas who lives at home at the moment and is going to college.

(his workspace......)

And then my daughter, Sydny, who works and her boyfriend:


And lasts by NOT least...my wonderful husband who puts up with me....


But to fill you in a bit.... I do have an Etsy store. The name is Dont Forget The Memory. I have vintage jewelry, jewelry I made myself, and other crafts and items.  I post on Pinterest, Twitter, Facebook. (though who doesn't). 

I am loving life right now and while last year my word was grow and I did, this year the word is "continue" and I am continuing to grow and blossom.  So if you come back next year....you will see a whole different person.

Please check out the rest of the bloggers and please like/follow me. I can guarantee, you will see "continued Growth!

Later!
Veralynne

    Hi, Veralynne - I've been having some problems with the whole Blogger thing cooperating today, myself...mostly on "Followers" and leaving comments. Anyway, I'm here from the Blog Hop - nice to meet you - will look around here a bit before retiring for the evening. Happy Creative Sunday - hope to see you around the blogdom! Tanya

    Vera,

    I dropped by from Vicki's GYB party and am most happy to meet you and your family.

    I am a 63 yr. old wife, mother of 2 daughters and grandmother to 2 boys and 3 girls, whom I adore. Sewing and every other crafty thing are a big part of my being. My interests are very varied.

    If you can find a moment, please drop by Mimi Mine to check things out and to find out more about me and the things I am doing to fill my life and keep myself ticking along. Have a beautiful week!
