Many times when planning a project something happens, it doesn’t work out, and you have to start over. Quickly it becomes out of our control, and I think one of the big lessons in life is to “Let go of what we have no control over, and move on!” This happened to me with the pods.

All I have to say about that is this, I don’t believe in mistakes, only another opportunity to be even more creative!

As I work on this idea, I’ll post pictures of it, so you can see the progress. It could go fast or it could go scratching and screaming all the way to the finish line!

Stay with me and check back to see what transpires during this “Sharp left turn project!”
