Cuttin’ it up

I’ve been toying with the idea to get my hair cut for a few weeks now. I took the plunge today and called the only salon that was open (I’m sure there were more, but so many of them are closed on Mondays). They had ONE appointment available with a guy named Brandon. Let me […]

Hold me back

Sur La Table is having a 75% off summer sale. Someone hold me back. I do not need more stuff.

Relaxation

It occurred to me sometime yesterday that I needed to STOP. I hit the ground running after finding out we were getting the new house and had not stopped for a break and it had been almost a month. I had packed, traveled, packed, moved and started to settle in and it had taken its […]

Moving Complete

It’s official, I’m blogging from the new place. Now I can quit talking about moving and start complaining about the mess of stuff in the new place. I don’t think I knew I had as much stuff as I do. I knew the small kitchen at this place would be a challenge since my last […]

One Hundred and Two

My Etsy sales broke 100 today – I’m at 102. Thank you to my mom and sister (I would have NEVER started this if it wasn’t for them), to Sacha who introduced Etsy to me, to AREtsy (you guys are SO supportive) and to my Etsy friends and fans for helping me along during this […]

Tuckered Out

Guess what blog fans, I’m T-I-R-E-D. I spent half of yesterday cleaning up the new place, then the entire evening was spent moving a couple of truck loads and looking for a new TV (don’t ask, I don’t get why we need one either). Today I worked a full day up at the Arts Center […]

Missing You Already

It’s been a week since we all loaded up the cars and departed from New Orleans. While I don’t miss the humidity and the funk that permeates every corner of The French Quarter (if you’ve been, then you know what the funk smells like), I do miss that place. I attempted to make some cafe […]

To Plan Ahead

In preparation for my move, I made quite a handful of new necklaces over the past couple of days. I figure that the next week and a half will be shot with moving and unpacking so the best thing would be to stock up so I can continue to list new items so my store […]

Treasury Sweetness

I’ve been quite blessed as far as Etsy goes during the past couple of weeks. I sold 7 necklaces while I was away on vacation (shall I travel more?) and am currently a part of three four treasuries. I truly am greatful for all of the wonderful people out there who showcase the works of […]

Coffee = fuel

Since returning home from New Orleans, I’ve been nothing but sleepy. I haven’t wanted to get out of bed in the morning, I’ve been taking naps just after work, I even contemplated a 20 minute nap during lunch today, but instead chose to go grocery shopping. I just spent 30 minutes on the couch snoozing […]
