The thing is lame as it may sound.. I have been busy. Honest. life has kinda gotten in the way of the things I want to do. In a good way. Business is going well although I expect a bit of a lull now christmas is over and people are back to being poor. My main issue at the moment is finding markets to do with customers that dont look at me like Im a freak. Maybe freak is too harsh, odd yes thats the word. I dont do the pretty little things that make people go. Awwww. I do the different stuff for those special folk who "get it".
Christmas was good. We had several. One with my family and one with Lukes then another with some of my beautiful cousins ( they are the best of people) then our quiet but enjoyable christmas day at home. I have been working on expanding what I make and challenging myself more. I am hoping to do a "masterclass" of sorts with my mother in law to learn how to use some of the patterns I have.
I have discovered I really enjoy creating things and had quite a bit of trouble having some down time over Christmas day. I honestly kept thinking " I should be doing something!" but eventually I got in to the swing of it and even had my first nanna nap in years.
I have embraced etsy. I really like it and find it really easy to use. The fees are a bit intense along with Paypal fees it really starts to take a chunk out of your profit but I dont really understand the handmade australian one and I really need to sit and have a good look.
We went and saw the Hobbit the other day. LOVE IT. and I must confess I am really digging Thorin. But my real love is for Bofur...
In other news I am well and truely involved in Doctor Who at the moment, unfortunately I am in the Martha stage ... stupid skank. If she tries one more thing on the Doctor I am going to stab her in the face.
I am mainly happy with life... which is nice for a change. The boys are on holidays and we have been doing lots of things together. That said I am about to take them grocery shopping so the situation could change before the day is out.
Happy New Year to you all. Stay Safe
