Year 2012, Day one


I really haven't taken care of business with this blog, and since this year is the year I "get my act together", and accomplish tasks I set out to do, here and now is a good start.
I ordered business cards today from Vista print.  What started out as a $10 for 250 cards, wound up over $30 - ouch!  But, I got the better card stock (advice from a friend), and I also ordered a T-shirt with my Etsy banner on it! - How cool is that?  I'm gonna wear that shirt to threads, because, as I see it, it's a VERY cool banner/business card/"logo".
There has been so much good TV on lately, especially old movies, my favorite.  With the job I got working at the West Chicago Middle School's cafeteria, I had two whole weeks off, and have had plenty of time to watch TV, and organize, and host a Christmas party - can't beat that.  Well, I could, with a better paying job, but that's where my Etsy shop comes in.
I was going to list a bunch of scarves today, but almost every one of them needed to be spot treated, so that took some time.  I also have on order a Brother printer that includes a fax and can print up to an 11 x 17 piece of paper - that is huge, and will make for a really cool ability for me to make some fabric pieces, another area I want to go deeper into.
The other is getting some purses made.  I have a style I really like, and I need to make sure I have all the materials I need, so I'll probably order some purse frames off of Etsy.  There's plenty to choose from.
And, since I can't post without putting up some pictures, here's one we took at Christmas just this LAST year LOL.

Curt, my sister's boyfriend of 12 years, is missing from this one -he took the pic.  The one with him in it, he's looking off to the side anyway :0(
