Holiday Sale Recap





Today's little sale has come and passed. If not for the last half hour, I would have called it a bust. But there was a blast of customers toward the end that made the day. I met some lovely folks and made a little spending cash for my trip.

Oh - Did I not mention? I'm going on a trip tomorrow. I am so excited I might weep. I'm going on my first solo trip in over three years - since before I had kids. After the fall we've had (no pun intended), Mama needs a vacation. So the fella's mom arrived today to help with the boys while I'm away. I'm getting on a plane tomorrow and heading east to stay with my lady lobster, Sunny B. We will talk, lounge, eat, shop, laze, read, watch friends, make-over, pedicure, rest, and laugh, laugh, laugh.

I can't even imagine how restored I will be upon my return. I mean, just going through airport security on my own will be like a vacation.

As fate would have it, little A has developed a horrible whoop of a cough this evening and has woken twice since being put down with the most pitiful hack you ever heard. This does not bode well. But I'm praying for a speedy recovery. I need to get on that plane...

Buried

I've been heartily engrossed in preparing for the first of two holiday sales I'm doing this month. It's tomorrow at Dizzle's preschool. If you're in town and you're not a crazy stalker, and want to know when and where, leave me a comment and I'll get you the deets.

It's funny thinking back on when I did lots of shows and sales - big time ones. This one is small potatoes, but it hasn't even happened yet and I'm pretty pooped. I can't believe I used to prepare and show up at shows with tub upon tub of pottery. How exhausting! I carried my whole inventory tonight by myself in one tub. What a nice change of pace.

Here are a few new goodies I whipped up for the sale. See something you need? Just leave me a comment. They're not up on etsy yet. I have an etsy shop remodel planned for December, so it's been a little neglected lately.











Fun Fun Fun.
