The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day

The Tuesday back to work after a three day weekend always seems like Monday times two.  Going back to work today after a four day weekend was even worse.  There were signs before I even left the house.  I woke up stressing over something ridiculous and fell back to sleep for just a bit before the alarm went off.  Then there were problems with the kid.  Always problems with the kid, 13 is a wonderful age for anything but girls.  Then the cat who can never get enough to eat, wouldn't eat.  For the first time in over a year, he didn't finish his food.  This is the same scaredy cat who hides all the time, so I couldn't even get hold of him to see if there was something obviously wrong.

Work was a lot of not getting what I planned to do done.  An unexpected trip across town.  Random annoyances popping up.

And to top it all off, my bank account is off.  😒


It wasn't all bad, I did get a few things accomplished at work and home.  The cat seems fine, he and one other have shared a cold.  I think he's not quite over it.  Stuffy nose = not wanting to eat.  He did eat eventually, he was just slow at it.

Tomorrow will be better.  Or I will go back to bed.  Either option is a win.  😉

New Items Posted on Etsy

I am making the move from Artfire to Etsy. It is time consuming to say the least! I still have 22 items to move, and then maybe I can make some new things! Alas, I have more ideas than time. Here are a few examples of items recently moved:

My Jewelry

Beautiful necklace and earrings listed here. Chinese coins and Carnelian chip beads. Go check it out. ;)


Carnelian: Stabilizing stone with high energy. Stimulates creativity. Excellent for restoring vitality. Protects the dead on the journey to the afterlife. Protects against envy, rage, and resentment. Calms anger and replaces with love.

Look What I Did!

My sister found a shark's tooth at the beach this summer. She asked me to make it into a necklace for her husband's birthday. I wirewrapped the tooth and made a natural colored hemp necklace with twist knots. Bead closure. They both loved it! My first custom job. ;)

Taking orders now!

I can take orders for crafts here on blogger any time. All I need is a valid email address linked to Paypal account. The necklace below I am particularly proud of. It is 18" long with a toggle clasp. Made of tiger eye bead chips with a wire wrapped moonstone pendant. I may make one for me! It's $25, check out my Etsy page (link on sidebar) for more items!

Moving to Etsy

I am unhappy with Artfire. I know some who do well there, but I decided to work with Etsy now. There is a cute little widget on the sidebar.

Go buy something cute! ;)

Unsure...

I am not sure how to promote my online jewelry sales more. I do have some flyers I can put up around town, and when I get back to work at the school in the fall I can leave cards and flyers in the workroom maybe. It's just a little frustrating that I have stuff that hasn't sold even though it's been up for months.

I need to make more stuff. A lot more. If I had more volume of things, the likliness of something being purchased would rise. Also, I'm hoping by next spring to have enough, and to have sold enough online to go to the craft fair at the Dogwood Arts Festival. It just seems so far away, and I have gifts to make, and a Christmas Stocking for Brianna... I really need to get busy!

All these years

All these years and still I retrurn to the same place, the same friend I always counted on. When I'm down I think of you, when I'm lonely, again you. Sometimes I wish I'd never met you and other times I don't know what I would have done without you. Here but not here. Mine but never mine. A dream of what might have been, and nothing more...

One weekend only!
