This is my first day of my first blog. It is a learning experience for me, as is everything I do. Now if everything I have done made me really smart, I might even be rich. ha.
  I live in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho with my wonderful husband Bill. We have been married 12 years and boy has it been wonderful and crazy. We moved to Idaho 10 years ago, bought a house on 5 acres in the small town of Athol. yes I said Athol. Boy was that a culture shock for this California native.  Athol is very small and the people their are real down home. I was a bit embarrassed at first to tell anyone that I lived in "ATHOL".  I had to get used to it fast though, because the mail-lady told me that I had to put Athol on the return address. (I tried to used the amusement parks' name that was near by-Silverwood.) Ok, so that was that. We were the butt of all the jokes our friends and family could throw at us. Well then I got this great idea to start a business using the name ATHOL. My very first phrase was "ALL ATHOLS MEET HERE". It was a hit. I tell you more about that another day.
  Well thanks for stopping by. This won't be a bunch of stories about my life. I have fun stuff to make and cook. I also want to share of the ways we try to save money and DIY projects.facebook.com
