Whoopsie!

Oh geez, I just let a whole month pass me by without writing down my thoughts! What the hell is that about? I’ve actually managed to keep myself very busy lately, personally and (somewhat) professionally. Let’s dive into it, shall we?

The most distracting piece of information is that I have made a friend who gets me out of the house and in the thrift stores. I have been able to find some great new inventory for my Etsy shop, as well as some more ideas for creative direction. That leads into the next bit of my distractions, taking care of those new items and handling orders (4 in one week, my best so far). Now I realize I’m very much small potatoes when it comes to this “job” of mine, but as someone who still hasn’t done a lot of advertising I have been coasting fairly well. But now it’s time to kick things up a notch, including making more dedicated time to hunting down my goodies.

Something I have been working on these last few months is getting off my phone and back into crafting; I made a jumbo nubby pencil, a banana keychain, and now am developing a series of miniature paintings (perhaps a mail club type of item?) Dude, making things with your hands is so damned satisfying! How could I forget about something like that?!

The sun is shining again, I hear birds when I wake up, and I’m generally happy every day, it’s been quite a change for me. But enough about me, how are you? Have you been able to get some sun time? Are you starting any new habits with this new change of season? What are we doing to make our days a little brighter?
