Forgive my absence, my friends! I am still here and still tied to Penelope’s Pitstop. Not only am I working hard on getting Tippie Toads going and keeping up with those orders, I am juggling 3 kids, a husband, and a sick doggy . And I thought I would have MORE time this summer to [...]
Last week, my mom had a health scare when she discovered she had a very large blood clot in her leg. It was a miracle that they found it before anything devastating happened. Since then, she is facing the inevitable 6 months of Coumadin to keep her blood thin to allow the clot to heal. This [...]
Oh, Man am I happy to see I still have you reading Penelope’s Pitstop. And some great names from the past, too! Thank you for understanding the craziness of my life. I know we are all crazy, but crazy and in pain most days doesn’t work so well for me. TODAY is a good day [...]
I’m here! I’m here! I know I have said this many times before, but I really am completely committed to Penelope’s Pitstop. What I haven’t been good at saying is that I am struggling with my health. There. It’s out there. I had so many inquiries in to my health when I did the Candida Diet [...]
My friends, I have been busy. I have been busy trying to get healthy, but in doing so, I have spent some time in the seated position…in front of my laptop. I am having a party at my house in a few weeks, a Trunk Show, per se. I love to do these, as I [...]
I was shopping one day at a local decorator’s store when I ran across these cute chip clips from Natural Life. I had never seen anything like them and thought they were really neat…and a great gift. I immediately thought about a teacher gift, as it was small and inexpensive but cute and unique. So, I [...]
I am a rookie this year. My oldest son entered Kindergarten and I have a huge learning curve. I was a little nervous going in knowing all the “rules” and “systems” our school had from my friends. It was ME that was intimidated, not my son. Two weeks in, however, I am completely impressed with our [...]
Friends, it is time. It is HIGH time I get my life organized. I am doing some great things in my home and in my life and I cannot wait to share them with you. My precious baby is one and I am making every attempt to regain control of my life…if that will ever [...]
I stumbled upon these Soap Rocks when I was on vacation in Florida this summer. I was fascinated by all the colors and textures these beautiful “rocks” provided. How cool can a bar of soap really be? I love these. The Soap Rocks come in several sizes…Soap Rocks, Palm Stones, and Rockettes. They are even packaged [...]
I stumbled upon these darling personalized melamine plates the other day, LaPlates, and I can’t get my mind off of the possibilities! I love cute things and to have that cute thing monogrammed or personalized not only makes me happy, but my kids LOVE things with their names on them. A way to stake a claim on what’s [...]
