Just Daily Stuff

I love to read the 'Quit Your Day Job' interviews/blogs at Etsy. I love my shop-I find it absolutely the most comprehensive and fascinating work I have ever done. I dream of being able to make a real living from searching for materials, design, presentation etc...In the meantime I have filled out an application for our local library to be the Friends of The Library Coordinator. Returning to a place where I had my very first job when I was 14. Part-time, flexible and in a great environment-I would love to do this while maintaining and extending my shop Gamut. This weekend was laid back-I spent Friday night watching Caprica re-runs and stringing some great bead ropes. When I make the bead ropes-the beads bring back memories. Now...I have a terrible memory. But for things like this-my beads-I can remember where and when I bought them. Not 100%-but most. So when I string them I remember alot of things. Maybe a necklace that was given to me, or belonged to a relative. Memories of myself or my children. Places I have lived in. So-that was cool. Saturday I helped my daughter by watching my 2 young grandsons (Boston 1, Clark 3) They are amazing! No lie-Clark can read at age 3. I love being with them. We had my 2 younger kids over dinner Saturday and Sunday nights. In the meantime I kept up on my shop, worked on lockets. My work table is in a corner with windows on both walls. Good sunshine to ward off SAD and excellent for taking pictures. It is a happy place.
