How Things Work

Things work out so funny sometimes. Currently, I know longer work at Baker Middle School, now I am at Fort Middle. Mrs. Claiborne has bought candles from me before, she works with me. From time to time she would ask me about the candles. Of course, I would say I know I need to make some, give me a little time.

One day in my class, three girls came to me and asked if I could make them some candles. Before they asked, I was thinking how I could get the side room together where I could start back making them. The girls where doing an assignment for their ELA class and needed them. They wanted me to show them how to make them, but the time was too short. So, I made them four candles. They wanted them in Fort colors, but I didn't have any plain wax.

This is how I was forced to make candles. Things happen so strangely from time to time. I spent a little time in my side room and moved some things around. I can set up my hot plates and start making candles again. What I don't realize is this is a way for me to make a little extra money. As always, others see more in me than I do. That is sad!


When I get some money I am going to purchase some wax and make candles for the holidays. I have several jars that I will fill and sell them for $3.00 a piece, just to get rid of them.


I found some candles that are old so I decided to place them around the house. I am using them too. A friend said they make the house look more comfortable and warm. This is something that I love to do, just haven't been doing it.
