When did it become April?

Time seems to be going by way too quickly... I think I lost a few days here and there. I don't really remember the month of March being over and we're now in April and in a couple of weeks my middle daughter, Anisa turns 7 years old.  She wants a princess tea party for her birthday... so being such a great Mom I am, I found a "Princess" to host the tea party... For $200 for two hours, she better be a good... I think I'm in the wrong business and should be a "Princess" too and charge parents to attend parties and eat cake.  However, I will probably get fat from all that cake and the way my various moods have been recently, I probably will end up being the evil Queen instead.

But enough about that... I suppose I should try to catch up on what I'm suppose to catch up on and get my things ready for a upcoming craft show in mid-May.

Until the next time I remember to post a blog, be sure to check out my new line of Chainmaille Earrings (lovingly named "Saniki's Little Links").  I originally was suppose to write about that today... somehow got sidetracked... again.  You can go HERE to view the collection I have listed in my Artfire Studio.

I'm Way Behind....

It has been an uninspiring and aweful couple of weeks for me... I've been putting everything in the back burner due to a family member, my father-in-law, being in the hospital.  With lots of crying and praying, he will be okay and is out of the ICU but will be remaining in the there for another week or two.. not quite sure yet.

With that in my mind, I've just haven't been wanting to do anything... depression can be, well, so depressing.

But now I know I need to get off my bottom and get back to work.  I will be doing a craft fair in mid May and am searching for other shows to do, and as you can see, redesigned my logo so it doesn't look "mickey mouse'ish" (if that's such a word).

I'm also contemplating whether to start another line that I wouldn't classify as Limited Edition or One of a Kind... I like making earrings and was thinking of having a specialized Earrings Only Shop.  Should I put my toes into semi mass production.  As business has been slow due to the economy, I still need to make a living and I'm thinking maybe if I purchase my materials in bulk, (materials for earrings are quite reasonably cheap) it will lower prices for my dear customers. Things I think about when I don't really want to think.  Strange as it sounds.

However this week is the week my two oldest girls have their Spring Break.. and of course they want the computer ALL THE TIME.  So I've been redoing my existing inventory with new tags and entertaining them. Well sort of.  It is great to be able to stay at home to work, but sometimes I miss actually going to work.

So that's what's been happening in a nutshell.  Back to tagging my creations....
