Back to Work...or trying...

Well, I was feeling like the fog was gone from my "so called" brain and I was really starting to get some great new ideas for necklaces and earrings. Everything seemed to be falling back in to place - and then I threw my back out...again! Don't ask me exactly what I did because I don't know, LOL all I know is when I tried to get out of bed Friday I had the worst sharp pain acrossd my low back.
Now, I have suffered from chronic back/leg pain for over 30 years, yes, most of my life, but this is a different type of pain! This is what I call "take my breath away" pain because that is what it does. The pain is new so it is VERY SHARP and literally takes my breath away everytime I even try to move...so work is back on hold and it is killing me just sitting here long enough to post this.

So, since I cannot sit right now, at least comfortably, I will sign off and post again when my back is better.

One Year and still in business

Well, it's been one full year today since I opened my store on Etsy.com and I am still here. I really love creating new designs almost as much as I like shopping online, LOL. When Mike, my husband, was working in CA for 3 months last year I would work on new necklaces annd earring combinations all day long, sometimes even forgetting to eat! Now that's a diet I can follow!

If I can just find time to keep up these blogs, keep creating new things and take photos of my new designs, post them online and keep up with all my family duties along with Christmas shopping! Honestly, I don't know how some of these people manage to do all this and have more than one store online! They MUST have help, whereas, I am all on my own. That's OK, I am not complaining really, just more amazed at how they do it all but I think my disability slows me down because when the pain is really bad I have to stop everything and lie down. That's OK, just hang in there with me and keep coming back, please!
