So I now have three orders in for my dream catchers...one will be done in a couple days; the others within the next couple of weeks...and i must say, I am very impressed that they liked them! It makes me feel nice to make pretty things for others...i'll post pictures of my latest one by tomorrow...and by the way- the 3" diameter dream catcher i have in my album: ThroughnThrough...For Sale...is still up for grabs: $15 shipping included for SG members only!!
And now, on to my day...If I get that job on Friday (*fingers crossed*), then I am going to be working anywhere from 18 hours to 30 hours a week; I am way over-qualified for the position I'll be in but, less stress is less stress and I could use a bit less of that right now...
jesus- i used to work anywhere from 45-60 hours a week without blinking...now, i'm a mom, and i can feel the guilt seeping in. A necessary evil, I suppose...but why do working mothers have to feel so badly for not being at home! I never thought I would be a 'homemaker' but I also didn't think I'd feel guilty for not being there as often as I have been! Either way...it has to be done. It will help level out my home anxiety, and replace it with the nonsense that is retail. Mindless, and repetitive...I can do that! ("How can I help you? I can do this for you...; Are you sure you wouldn't like to see the other color? Let me get you a smaller size" yada yada) I HAVE done that...and I never thought I'd be so relieved to go back into management...nothing like bossing people around and coming home without a care in the world. I'm a nice boss, so I don't feel too badly saying that and something tells me I'll be the merchandiser in this store as well. NOOOO problem...early shifts, and less dealing with customers ("Sorry, I'm but dressing mannequins and hanging faceouts high above the sale floor...sorry I can't talk....SHE can help you!"
)
As for my little hiatus...I'm already feeling a bit better...other than the sinus infection i can tell is setting in. At least I have my sanity...I just wish I didn't look so POOFY...my face looks swollen...so i'm not doing anymore pictures for awhile...sorry to all who enjoy them but, right now, I'd scare you right out of your chairs...and it will give me time to focus on my dreamcatchers! And my job...if I get it...which is almost definite...
Alright, I'm done with my morning ramble- more later....like the word of the day! I have been slacking hardcore on that front...listen to me, trying to improve my vocabulary and using phrasing like 'slacking hardcore'...i'm such an ass
GOOD MORNING TO ALL, SG!

Congrats on selling the dreamcatchers. I do think they're beautiful.
