foggyheaded

Ever have those days where the fog in your head doesn’t lift? You have some caffeine, then try a sugary-sweet, but you’re still feeling sluggish and unmotivated? Sometimes I push through, but yesterday I didn’t. It was a grey rainy day, and in spite of birds chirping, my energy tank remained on low. Therefore, the […]

Milestone Markers

Just before Easter I gave a pendant the inventory number 100. I paused a bit, even though I had a few to go, because that was a milestone I didn’t see coming just a few months ago. To think that prior to April 14, 2012, I didn’t even know of this technique (Thanks Crystal and […]

Frosty weekend walks

Nope, I didn’t work on the pendant descriptions I had every intention to write.  Saturday morning became frustrating as I fruitlessly searched online for findings that I know exist but apparently can only be found in 24-packs at Michael’s for now, instead of through a wholesaler.

There are lots of thoughts mulling in my head, draft posts to be finished, but calls for art, taking down Christmas […]

Inspiration from Shea Vaughn

“When I started making better choices and setting examples, all of a sudden you feel so good and warm about yourself.” ~ Shea Vaughn On Friday the Women’s Innovation Network had its first 2013 Innovation Circle. We revisited L.K. Bennett, where I had a lovely morning last time as well. Learning about Spring fashion trends […]

2013 planning

A friend referred me to Leonie Dawson’s “Incredible Year” planners, which I ordered in December. After getting stuck on formal business planning, this has become a lovely alternative to kicking off the new year. Critical to the process is closing out 2012. Leonie offers exercises to look back and determine what was accomplished, what could […]
