Update

     How is everyone doing?  I decided to take a break from writing this blog for a while. I'm not sure when I will come back to regular blogging.  I am okay but the depression dragon has been flying around the kingdom.  I haven't felt like doing anything that I like to do.  Not blogging, or knitting and just getting outside has been a challenge.  I have also been crying a lot and not for any reason in particular.  My work has been a big challenge as well.  I've actually taken a six week non-paid leave of absence.  I'm currently in the middle of changing my medication and at the end of six weeks, I hope to feel more like myself.
     
     If you are wondering why I am so candid about depression, it is because of that reader who is struggling with their own battle with a depression dragon.  You are not alone!  While dealing with these symptoms really suck, it will get better.   Today I had a big craving for spaghetti and chicken, so I made it!  Doesn't seem like a big deal but when it takes all your strength to get dressed, making supper is a big win.

     I also will be changing the format of my blog somewhat.  I will be taking pictures of products at events and posting them on my Instagram.  I will be including the vendor's name on the picture.  If you want more information about a certain vendor, please e-mail me at shopwithberni@gmail.com. Then, I will write a general blog about going to the event.

     Thank you so much for reading and leave a comment if you so desire.

Once Upon A Time

0nce upon a time there was a creative lady who lived in a big city.  This lady was visited by a friend from the land of her childhood and showed her how she could share her love of homemade and Canadian products with people of all lands.  Soon she entered the land of vlogging and set off on a quest to film these products.  After three completed quests the dragon named Depression entered the land and plunged it into darkness.  The quest no longer seemed interesting and the quest was set aside while the darkness was present.  Soon the sun appeared through the darkness and the dragon left the land but it lurked nearby.  The friend had come to the big city again to inquire as to why the quest had been set aside.  The lady confessed that her quest was difficult and daunting.  The friend reached out to her and placed something into her hand.  Peering into her hand she discovered that it held a quill.  Her quest of film would be replaced by that of the written word.  So our heroine sets of into her big city with a new purpose for her quest.  Since heroines don't give up on quests, film may still be used in the days to come.
