    Default It's been a long slow day.....

    Dh is sick , when he is sick he is a big baby! Thank goodness he hasn't been home all day but when he was here he was driving me nuts. DD#2 is cranky and needed a nap and DD#1 keeps asking me to play her webkins. I just wanna get out by myself for a while. I wanted to deep clean the bed room but seeing as how dh was sleeping in it that didn't work out. The boards are very empty today but I'm not really that interested in it anyway. So to cure my boredom I opened an Etsy shop today. For those of you who don't know Etsy is a place to buy and sell crafts. I am just going to post a few of the higher priced items I make in it and I was thinking about making some more of those chalk boards like I made Tracy. You guys are probably tired of hearing about all my stuff I made but I don't have anyone else to share it with. I think I really want try to have a small business making my crafts.

    Are you kidding me? You're my best source of decorating inspiration! I will never tire of seeing your stuff. It's a bummer when dh is sick here, too. It's like it's the end of the world.

    He just has a cold, the kids had them too. But geez you would think he is dieing. He gets like this every time. I don't get men. They are suppose to be big and tough yet they can't handle a runny nose. Can you imagine if women complained as much as they do.

    Auck! Men and sickness! Yep, so many are like babies!

    I never tire of hearing about your crafts. : I think you should follow your dream of opening a craft business.

    I tried to get an account with Etsy but at that time, they would only take "real" credit card (no bank cards) and I didn't have one so I couldn't sell on there. Have they changed that yet? I bet you'll do really well on Etsy! Good luck!

    Yes they take bank cards now. Well I don't know that they changed it I just don't have a credit card so I used my bank card and it worked. You should do it.
