I decided, once and for all, to not have the boutique in my house this fall. For a variety of reasons:
1. Strangers casing my house
2. Neighbors snooping
3. Exhausting set-up, running and clean-up
4. Too much small talk talk talk talk talk
5. Putting my family out
6. Being unable to relax in our home before, during, or until a good solid week after.
7. Wear and tear on the place and on me.
8. It feels like I'm asking my friends to come over and give me money. Makes me very uncomfortable.
One of my co-boutiquettes has volunteered to have it at her sister's house. But still, I am not interested. Refer to items 3, 4 and 8.
My jewelry making is not a business. It's a hobby. It's time to cut back before I totally hate it. I'm thinking about selling lots of beads on eBay. Clean this place up!
Wow. No boutique and I won't be having my Ornament Exchange Party either. I think I may have gained a whole lot of time this Christmas season.
Merry Christmas to me!
Is it too early to talk about Christmas?
Too late!
Merry Christmas to you, too!
Heh.
I walked to work today. It takes me half an hour. I picked up some coffee/cocoa and muffins for me and The Kid. Mr. Frame Shop is out of town so it was just us kids working today. I was in and out of the place. I can alot of work done when Mr. Frame Shop isn't around to listen to me jabber away.
Walking was painful and I think I owe it to my friend, Long Legged Sue. She took me for a walk last night (arf!) and lordy, she's got a long, quick stride. I was too proud to speak up so think I threw my left hip out of whack and ended up with an aching shin going to and from work.
Well, now. I'm all out of stuff to write about again so...
See ya!
