A quick update

Well, I guess I'm starting on those goals I listed a while back in a post. I have decided to try to do at least 3 arts and crafts shows this fall. Today, (after many hours and days of research on-line and via the phone to pick out ones I liked), I've found 4 or 5, applied to 3 of them and sent in 2 applications today. This took all day. One app. was quite long, plus they wanted photos of my work, my booth and me creating stuff! So I had to make some quick photos, ran out to get them developed, came home and realized that I needed more photos, so out again to the store! I can't believe how long it takes me to do stuff sometimes!
I have a number of new pieces of jewelry made, but have not yet priced or photographed them, so I guess that will wait for another day!

Good luck with the shows. I tell my husband that it takes longer to take/edit/load photos and write up listings for etsy than it does for me to sew the things!

I tried some new snacks in this months box, so get ready for some chocolate! ~dutch cocoa sun-crunch These are cocoa flavored sunflower and sesame seed clusters. Medium strength taste wise on the chocolate, but I love the saltiness of the sun-crunch itself. 6 grams of protein per serving; that's pretty good too! ~dark cocoa almonds~ If you like dark chocolate, you'll love these! 4 grams of protein on these per serving. ~dark chocolate berry trail mix Out of the other trail mixes that I've tried from Naturebox , this one is my favorite. It's a good mix of dried fruits and nuts, including cranberries and cherries, cashews and pistachios, plus tiny chips of dark chocolate that gives it that flavor punch. 4 grams of protein ~flax fortune coins~ Taste just like flattened fortune cookies with the added benefit of flax seeds. Flax seeds are full of omega-3's, and are said to be good for helping reduce your risk of heart disease, cancer, stroke, and diabetes...

Post July 4th workout and update

Image
I took off a week from running since my legs were hurting everyday, all day. So it was a bit challenging to start back up this week. I'm so greatful for the cooler mornings that we've been having. Today: 1.77 miles Weight: let's not talk about it; I'm on a see-saw right now. Eating fairly well. Staying away from sweets. Bought a new swimsuit yesterday, so can start swimming when it is too hot to run or walk. Not your traditional swimwear; I wanted something to exercise and do laps in. It's more for cross-training. More to come..... To read my previous post. go here .

Well! I'm feeling a little happy today! I made some earrings for the gallery and took them there. I have to admit; I almost don't feel like my current work is not "good enough" to be in this shop. What beautiful paintings, artisan made pottery, wall hangings, glass! You can find it here: http://www.paintedfishgallery.com Then I went and picked up my check from working last week. Came home to find 3 sales on my ETSY supply shop and 2 sales in my ETSY jewelry shop! Yeah! Now here's something for you. I'm having another giveaway. This time it's for a Joyce Meyer book, "I dare You!" All you have to do is post a comment on my blog here from now until March 3. I will draw a winner on the 4th.
