contest blues

Well! I haven't even placed in one of the contests I've entered, yet. I know I'm knew at this & of course I'm just starting out in the design business, but wow, rejection still hurts. My business is moving along slowly, well, actually I'm moving along slowly. Life keeps getting in the way. My health, money, transportation, yada yada yada. But, I keep on keepin on & maybe I might just get an honorable mention sometime soon in one of these contests. I'm doing what I can to get my name out there. Tommorrow I go to greeters from the Chamber of Commerce & I'm nervous, I don't do well in front of strangers & of course, Mom has been really pumpin up my jewelry. EEEE! Sorry, I had to yell I know I'll be ok, just gotta get up there & do it that's what they say. So, that's it for now. Let you all know how I did soon.

LABOR DAY!

Wellllll! I'm back sure haven't been keeping up with this blog. I just can't seem to remember I need to do something here at least weekly. But, life enterfers and then the memory goes & I can't even call it oldtimer's disease, yet, I think anyway.

So, it's Labor Day Weekend already! My summer just disappeared on my. I have entered a few contests. Haven't won anything , yet, but i keep on tyring and maybe I will.

I went to a few sale events & didn't do great, but I didn't lose money.

Gotta go my puppies wanting attention.

Sorry

It has been a longggggg time I know. I'm very sorry. I've been feeling very sorry for myself and have been neglecting a few things I should be keeping up on. Here's what's been going on. I have brochial asthma and I live in a valley that has an air pollution problem and at times in the winter it gets very bad. Sooo, needless to say I came down with acute severe bronchitis. The Dr. gives me prednisone(a steriod) that drives me bonkers, makes me depressed (you get the picture). It also causes my immune system to become deficient - that's right - I get sick whenever I come in contact with someone else who is sick. So I have to stay shut up with no company unless you are positive you are not contagious. I have been sick forever!!!!!!

I have done some wirework and I'll try to get some pics up.

I can't promise I'll do better, but I will try.
