I say week because on Tuesday I had my first Etsy sale, so that completes resolution 2012 A4.1- Sell something on Etsy. I sold the smaller of the two jewelry boxes that I had listed and shipped off to it's new owner in Colorado on wednesday. I didn't really make any money on it as it's...

"It would take decades if work by thousands of scientists in a particle accelerator powered by dump trucks of flaming grant money" -Professor Farnsforth

I like that I have access to a welding maching, great angle grinder, access to a shop space and know how to weld and today I used all that to fix a broken metal cat litter scoop because my local store...

New Years resolutions for 2013

1- Get my finances back in order The back third of the year always seams to be down financial for me, I used to pay my car insurance in aug/sept, some of the time I was in school and not working, what ever time I missed in the winter for bad weather, being sick or over christmas break, etc. This...

New years resolution recap: I'm not going to be able to post this blog tomorrow and none of the results are going to change in that time anyway.

For a while now I've been wondering what percentage of people are naked on the internet. It seams the National (American) campain to prevent teen and unplanned pregnancy, was wondering too, because they did a survey. Link

It's not really the full answer as they asked 1,280 people age 13-26 that were all living in the United States, included 'sent electronicly' and it was done...

Wow dad good job on the insensitive 'present'. It reminds me of the wife and children that gave a guitar to their husband/ father who just tore one of his fingers off in lathe accident. Oh and thanks for not making the phone call to tell me not to spend $166 for parts for your truck, because you picked them up yourself.

I froze last night at work and was still frozen until 10 am. Not a little tease, one shadowed puddle, frost on a car hood or windshield. Everything was frozen, every surface had frost on it, any bucket, pan or lid had a skim of ice, the ground had little ice towers pushing up a little crust of dirt and pebbles. It did look nice...

Thanks for all the support about My Etsy page. The little stats part that I find awesome tells me 7 people from SG stopped by. So thanks Dryad, Pistolita, Vivid and four mystery others. I haven't managed to sell any thing yet but I know I don't have a lot to bring people in so that will take time.



I've been watching...

I openned a store on Etsy.com this weekend. That give me partial credit on new year's resolution #4. I don't think I'm going to have much luck selling the two jewelry boxes I've got on there now. I shipped something to LA a while ago and put some effort into finding inexpensive shipping, but some how the other people on Etsy have me beaten there,...

I quit my job at the start of August, and started working for my previous job again. They have a new bigger shop, laided out differently to get things done more efficiently. According to the office even after 6 weeks it's noticeable more efficient.

The old job was bothering me more and more, the owner/mis-manager had an office in a different building for a while,...
