My new friend


Isn't she lovely? With her powdery white skin, tasteful cleavage and brainless opinions?
My new friend has come to stay and her name is betsy (heehee), she will hopefully give shoppers a new vantage point in which to view the jewelry they just need one more reason to buy.
Now how in the world am I going to keep her unsullied in my kid combat zone?

This is a photo of the field across from my house. I am standing on the other side of the road about 20 feet away.

I was in the kitchen and saw some white smoke blow out from behind the church across the street. I think to myself that it is awfully close to a building for some one to be burning brush so I step out the front door and in seconds there was a huge line of fire rushing across the field up to the fence. I grab the phone and dial 911 and they reassured me that the fire dept. was on the way. They were there pretty quickly but watching how fast the fire ate up the dry grass was a little scary. The poor field is black now.


I try not to feel ignored never being on the front page, I mean the last time I checked there were 90,000 etsy members and I'm sure there is way more now.

But I always hoped I would one day be in a treasury that was chosen for front page.

Well, I was! In the same day I was in 2 treasuries that made it to the front page!!!

I didn't even know, but Steph and Candace let me know and it made sense, since that day I did an incredible amount of sales that was badly needed.
But what was really amazing is that a day or two later ( I missed it again ) another photo of mine made it to the front page. I saw it in a recent contacts flickr photos! I feel loved.




For some reason I have had to reconnect to the internet 5 times now while trying to post this, so even though I have more to say, I have to go or I will throw something.

Easter Goods!



So I nearly escaped the horrendous bug going around my house (and a lot of other houses I hear!) when I come down with not one (last week) but 2 colds (right now)! How I can be sneezed on, coughed on, thrown up on, not to mention some other unmentionables and never catch the flu but end up with head colds!?! Weird.

Thursday, I had no internet connection but I was okay with that being busy finishing up my Polka Dot eggs, Beatrix Potter tags and new Hambly silk screened pendants. Yay! They come in cream!
Friday I would have liked to pitch a fit as I was in the middle of listing all my new stuff when it just quit on me again. So what are the chances of needing a new modem AND a new router? AT THE SAME TIME!?! Yeah, I'll just go pull that $150 off the ol money tree.

Time has been very limited on the computer and I want to visit your blogs so I will sign off here with hopes of returning with something new soon!
