Sorry its been so long

I've actually sit down and typed a few messages, but they were so random that I ended up deleting them. Now, I can't promise this one will be any better, but I'll try.

First, to answer a few questions from comments. Sarah, yes, I plan on doing more craft shows. I have information on one in Franklin/Brentwood that I think would be good and maybe Davidson Academy's craft show (not sure I can get in that one .... Emilee'll be on their list next year). More affluent area(s), hopefully more money to spend. I really enjoy that type of setting. I'm not a huge salesman, I don't like to be pressured, so I don't pressure people. But since I'm passionate about scrapbooking, I like to talk about it when people ask questions. I think one thing that people enjoyed on my table was my Heritage album. Great old pictures and LOTS and LOTS of punching (started it when punch art was popular - and I was good at it!!!). I'm glad I did this employee fair, but I look forward to doing one in a different setting, at a different place.


Now, my next rant. Money ...... I'm out of it. This happens every year. I buy, buy and buy and don't get everything I need before running out! My biggest mistake was buying some clothes for me! They were so pretty and I REALLY needed them. No honestly, I did. See, I've gained some weight, so I have very few things that fit well (and I do look in the mirror before I leave the house, so I know when something looks good or not - unlike a lot of people in this world). But that put me back on shopping money. I still have to buy for DH, and both my parents. DH is getting a hunting camera thing he wants (cost $299.00) and thats it. He's already gotten one present earlier in the year for hunting. And my parents, gosh... what to get them. They are so hard to buy for because they just buy whatever they want. I guess I'll figure that out when the time comes to go shopping! (gotta wait to pay day now!!! - thank goodness thats tomorrow and Friday for DH).

See ya later!

I'll post pictures of the craft fair ..........
