Does anyone have anything to add at all lately?

I am hoping to get myself back in form and get more of the real live presence back in Colorado Springs. We are supposed to be a street team, so I guess I will get some fresh way of looking at things from Etsy and go from there.

The changes in the laws that goes into effect...

Feb. 10 is going to be to much of a financial burden so I am having to change what I make. I will no longer offer anything made for children under the age of 12. This saddens me as I love to make kids toys and quilts. If this goes as badly for the industry as it appears it will this will end many charity and thrift shops as well. I know that even large market stores are going to have issues with having anything that complies with the law as it is written. So if you know anyone that has kids they might want to stock up so that when the stuff comes off the shelves Feb 09 they won't face a shortage of any kind. There is an open letter from Etsy in the forums I think. Please read it and make sure those you know have a good idea of if they are going to comply or ignore it and hope it can't be enforced.

I have the flu...

but intend to have more of a presence here this year. The MS seems to be leaving me alone again and I have even looked into becoming a moderator for Etsy street teams. I am hoping to have a small show this summer for us. I will post to bring everyone updates as it happens.

Taking a couple of weeks off

to recover. Between the MS and the biopsy stuff, I am a nervous wreck. I will try to get something going here again ASAP.

still no camera or computer...

but how can that keep the crazy craft lady down? Reading some books on marketing and making some inventory. Partisipating in the Peace Swap #4. Keeping busy so I don't loose focus.

not much to say...

still no camera or computer of my own... so all posting suffers. It isn't stopping me from partisapating in the peace swap #4. Doing some really great lace knitting. Made two round throws this past week and have a baby blanket on the round needles. Thinking of doing something in embroidery and silk soon. Miss chatting with the Etsy crowd. Taking my free time to study marketing.

broke camera and borrowed computer

but needles are in hand and I am trying to get my feet back under me. Life took a nasty downturn and I am looking to ETSY to bring me out of it. If anyone is still out there maybe we can get some brain storming happening.
